Travis-the program is completely clean. The machines have been captured by the collector crowd which plays the machine extensively, usually until one is obtained. The common strikes are turned back in. I watched one of us win 47 common strikes before he got the twofer. But his net cost was "only" $260. The first collector to play it got two twofers. One was strike number 23 and than he joined his son playing the other machine which kindly spit out the twofer on the 50th strike. But the net cost was about $200 each. My partner and I each got ours at a net cost of $30 because we took over the machine after another unfortunate quit after pulling out 34 strikes. We got the first on the 12th strike, cleaned the machine of the remaining four and then hit our second twofer on strike number two. And split, since there were 48 left to get before a new fill. We checked the other machine and the collector there had gotten his twofer on strike number four of his fill. He had won 10 strikes before the fill and he got 14 strikes and the twofer for $100 total cost.

The twofers are under special lock and may be removed ony by the slot manager or the assistant slot manager on duty. There is one twofer in the 50 strike fill, placed randomly. When the fill occurs, the strikes are then hand-mixed.

I checked at the cage three different times and none have been turned in. I know many people who have gone to win and some semi-dealers are going for more than one to make a profit. I am a skeptic but this play is straight.

I have confirmed at least 25 of the strikes went to strike collectors who played the machines. One person came from West Virginia with his wife and I saw the strike drop for him after about 20 common strikes.
