[Regulator75]

He went to claim his jackpot, owners of the casino simply said there'd been a "software error" and that the 26-year-old was therefore not entitled to the big money prize.

Instead they offered him $100 and a free meal, which, hardly surprisingly, he rejected. Admittedly, it appeared that the top prize was for a five-slot match, whereas Merlaku had only managed to match four-slots, but with the machine's screen and accompanying racket telling him he'd won, why wouldn't he believe it?

So upset was Merlaku that he has decided to launch a lawsuit against the casino, claiming it should honor the ‘win.' The incident took place earlier this year, while the legal action will begin next month.
