A lucky man from Arizona became richer by $220,000 from a slot machine in early January after a visit to a Las Vegas casino, but he only learned about it recently.
The Nevada Gaming Control Board announced on Friday, February 4, that Robert Taylor had won a jackpot worth $229,368.52, but a "communications error" in the slot machine prevented him from knowing that he had won the big prize.

This man returned that day very sad of not winning anything, and when they called he found out what had happened, he had won tremendous money, these are things that happen and you can not avoid them, it is the technology that in the end is responsible for doing justice.

I miss everything that happened and what a surprise for the winner haha. How nice it would be to know that I have won an award that I never thought I had won. In any case, the most remarkable thing is the concern for wanting to locate the winner and give him the money that corresponded to him. Applause for that. The only concern is that this glitch does not provide much security to the player, because it shows that machine can fail.

these are very crazy news, it seems that it is difficult to happen but in this world anything can happen, that's why the most important thing is to give our 100%, the rest always comes, in this case the technology took care to do justice and give the winner his deserved prize.

Strangely, lately we have read stories like these, of winners who had not found out that they had won, like the woman who found the email in her spam folder notifying her that she was the winner; or the boy who found out from his mother; and this case(I even think I forgot some other). But this one here is the one that seems the strangest to me

there will always be different stories, but we can't know how true they are. There is a possibility that they will be directed to make people play, but the winners who tell them are real of course. There is also the option where the stories are still directed, but the winner is fake ... However, many people win correctly.

The important thing was that it was all transparent, and I think that should always be so, sometimes the machines can fail of the moment but everything is recorded, and this player had won a great prize, a good gesture.

machines can make mistakes for various reasons, but the human being is there to correct, that is why this man was able to receive what he had won in these games. always justice first.
