Players Lost Millions On Illegal Poker Machines
Philidelphia, PA -- Vending Co., Bar Owners Tampered With Machines, Pocketed Payout
About $2 million was seized in an undercover bust of illegal video poker machines at local area bars.
You might have played one of the gambling machines if you went to a bar in Montgomery or Delaware County.
Prosecutors said James Connelly of JC Vending Company distributed them.
They were allegedly tampered with so that the player would lose money.
Prosecutors said points would be knocked off when a player would win.
"The odds are set by the bar owner and the vending machine company. The odds given by this machine are actually worse than what you would get at a casino in Atlantic City, so they're set up to fail," First Assistant District Attorney Risa Vetri Ferman said.
Ferman said the payout was being kept at the bar.
One owner reportedly earned $100,000 in extra income from the machines.
No charges have been filed but several businesses could face corruption and gambling charges.
