There have been a couple instances like this where a 'programming bug' had undesireable results for the casino and machine manufacturer.
IGT should be responsible for what they put out on the floor. It's possible this was just a mistake by their programmers. The fact that it requires a certain key sequence to activate the feature leads me to believe that it was intentionally put into the code ( or at least not corrected when discovered) . Only way to find out is go through the source code and see. I don't think IGT is going to make that information public.
There are a lot of reasons an individual ( or company) would do something like this. And you might think the player in this case has committed a crime, I'm more concerned with IGT being responsible for what product they put out in the field.
If this guy wasn't a greedy moron, he could have run this play for a very long time. IGT should thank him for being so greedy. There's a lot of hustlers who would have made a whole lot more money off of this.
