But, shhhhh, don't tell anyone because it didn't happen at a completely legal place. ;)
Is THAT what we need to be quiet about?
Please tell me the rules of the game. What is the raise feature and how does that work? Why did you get paid $800 when the game says it pays 200x on a 6/6?
I may be wrong about this, but if the first ball drawn is matched, your win is quadrupled. I don't know what the raise thing is either, fwiw.

Pick 2-10 numbers and make your bet in multiples of 25 cents.
The machine draws 10 balls and the game pauses to give you a chance to double your bet (when playing 6 numbers, most people will double if they get at least 2 hits).
Following your doubling decision the machine picks the remaining 10 balls.
If you get a hit on the last ball out of the chute, your win, if any, is mutliplied by 4.
Hence, in these games I've shown, my original bet was 50c, I doubled the bet to $1, I got all 6 for 200x, and got the last number, making it 200x4= $800.
FarFromVegas, this is a game on a machine called Pot O'Gold, which are very old; the copyright displayed on the machines I play says 1986-1999! There are usually many different games loaded onto one machine and you can switch from one to the other and back again without cashing out.
You will most likely not encounter these machines anywhere that has 'regular' slot machines. They can be found in back-room gambling parlors and sometimes gas stations or convenience stores where they are allowed by law.
I'm not sure, but I would guess your state was voting on Class II gaming, not these.
Here's a picture of the main screen, showing all the different games you can pick from. The amounts displayed above the name of each games is the jackpot amount; some are progressive, some are not.

Aristocrat Leisure Limited is an Australian gambling machine manufacturer, which has its administrative centre in the Sydney suburb of North Ryde, although the majority of its research and development is also done at its North Ryde site. It has marketing and development offices in South Africa, Russia and the United States.
Aristocrat is the largest gambling machine manufacturer in Australia, and one of the largest manufacturers of slot machines in the world, currently second only to International Game Technology.[citation needed]
Old Time Slot Machines
History[edit]
The company produced its first machine in 1953, and was listed on the Australian Stock Exchange in 1996. The company was founded by Len Ainsworth, whose family[1] maintains a substantial stake in the company, but is now chairman of a different gaming company, Ainsworth Game Technology. Aristocrat is licensed to distribute slot machines and other gaming products in over 200 jurisdictions (note that many countries, such as Australia, have a number of different gaming-licence jurisdictions).
Products and partnerships[edit]
Aside from spinning reel slot machines, the company has interests in gambling systems (a computerised network systems that manage slot machines), computerised card game simulations, electronic table games and linked jackpot systems (such as the patented Hyperlink systems). The company has developed the Reel Power system, where players buy reels instead of lines, win combinations in the standard configuration.
Aristocrat's most prominent products have been game setups which place large progressive jackpots over a number of machines, including its Lightning Link series. The series has seen substantial popularity, to the point that Aristocrat has licensed branded areas at several North American casinos dedicated exclusively to the machines.[2][3][4][5]
The company has a number of distribution partnerships, including Sammy Corporation in Japan.
10 Times Slot Machines
In the U.S., Artistocrat has licensed titles to Grand Vision Gaming of Montana for use on video lottery terminals.[6]
Corporate information[edit]
Since March 2017, the CEO has been Trevor Croker, formerly executive vice president for global products, who succeeded Jamie Odell.[7][8]
The company employs 6,000 people in 103 countries.[citation needed] Company revenue during 2004 was in excess of A$1.1 billion.[citation needed] This is in contrast to earlier financial crises that the company has suffered, mainly associated with licence rejections in Nevada and dishonoured contracts in South America.[citation needed]
Aristocrat's CEO blamed the US subprime mortgage crisis for poor financial results in 2008,[9] despite the fact that competing companies have experienced record growth[10] in the same time period. As a result of the expected drop in revenue, the CEO enacted sweeping budget cuts, including large-scale retrenchments of staff from all areas of the business.[11] The company again faced difficult market conditions in 2009 with its full year resulting in a net loss of $157.8 million.[12] In July 2014 Aristocrat agreed to buy Video Gaming Technologies for about $1.3 billion to triple its North American business amid falling profit in Australia.[13] On August 10, 2017, it acquired mobile game developer Plarium for $500 million to enter into mobile gaming.[14] On November 30, 2017, it acquired mobile game developer Big Fish Games for US$990 million.[15]
In July 2019, Aristocrat sued Ainsworth, alleging that they had used proprietary assets leaked by a former Aristocrat employee to produce a clone of Lightning Link, including underlying code and media assets.[4][3]
