Seems in this case they even offered to give him the machine "jackpot" for what was essentially a loosing spin, seems fair to me.

A technical report said the slot machine's computer malfunctioned, and incorrectly made it appear as if Hoffman won more than the machine is able to pay out. The slot machine has a disclaimer that says it pays a maximum of $2,500 and warns that malfunctions void all winnings, said Paul Bardacke, Sandia's lawyer.
A machine that has a visible, clearly marked disclaimer that it pays a maximum of $2,500 should be enough.
There was a technical report that indicated the machine malfunctioned.
But the first thing, to me, would be the clear disclaimer of a $2,500 maximum.
