Just got a phone call that the $1 Double Bonus progressive at the Gold Strike Casino on the I-15 in Jean, Nevada (about a half hour south of Vegas) has reached the $6,000 level.

Curiously, it appears that someone tried to keep other players off of the few machines that are linked to the progressive on Monday evening. The few machines were all jammed with "bad paper money" according to a player and the floor crew did not know about it until the player brought this to their attention.

This player thinks that someone jammed the machines until they could return to them later. I wonder if this really is a case of player hanky panky??
