Thread: San Manuel Casino players SHOCKED when their freeplay is 100x as large as expected!

  1. #1
    Major, major fail at San Manuel a few days ago.

    People showed up to the kiosks to print their freeplay, most of whom were expecting in the range of $10-$50.

    Imagine their SHOCK when they saw eye-popping freeplay numbers like $1,000, $5,000, $10,000, and even $75,000!

    An unfortunate mathematical or data entry error caused everyone's freeplay offers to be multiplied by 100!!!

    This means that people expecting just $10 were given $1000!

    As you might guess, people didn't want to alert casino staff to the mistake, so they printed it and uploaded it into the machines, and went to town! Amazingly, I'm hearing that San Manuel remained ignorant to the situation for awhile, until many of these amateur gamblers had over $3000 in machines, and couldn't cash out without a handpay. When the handpays started showing up rapidly, casino staff knew something was up. Shortly after that, after a few honest people reported the errors in their own freeplay, San Manuel realized what was going on.

    They quickly shut down the kiosks and the ability to upload freeplay into machines, while they went to work fixing it.

    Here's a Facebook post from a guy explaining how his $500 freeplay became an eye-popping $50,000!

    Here's a confused guy who showed up to play later on that day, and didn't understand why his freeplay was missing! (He didn't realize what had happened earlier.) Go to the 9:30 mark where he explains it.




    I know a player who was supposed to get $750 freeplay, and found himself with $75,000. He reported it, and did not attempt to redeem it, believing it to be both unethical and illegal.

    To me, the legality of the matter isn't clear, other than the fact that San Manuel had a right to revoke it at any time. Could they refuse to pay winnings from the erroneous freeplay? Yes, because it's Indian land, and they can do what they want.

    San Manuel Casino is located in Highland, CA, which is a little bit northeast of San Bernadino.

    This reminds me of the Woman who got $300 in free play as a Glitch and thought the Casino gave her an unexpected free gift. She happily played it and turned the free play into some cash. Months later, she and her Husband went back to that same Casino.

    She lost her Player's Club Card and they went to The Player's Club to get a new copy if her lost card. The Player's Club Staff Member ran her ID and informed them that she was actually on The Banned List for playing the $300 that was accidentally given to her as a Glitch. She and he were stunned and the Husband pointed out that his wife was NOT a Thief and honestly thought that it was a surprise gift from The Casino and she wouldn't have played it if she knew it was a Glitch.

    Take comfort in the fact that no one is actually backing up his wishes to have you permanantly banned.
