From my understanding of the situation, they were in the short term. Shirley got lucky, she and Bob didn't have time to grind out an edge. Luck and edge were both present of course, but my understanding was that luck was dominant. In addition it was silly for MGM to 86 them when all they needed to do was change the situation, which I think they did anyway. If they were smart about it they could have gotten marketing value: "Play at the casino where Bob and Shirley won a million dollars!", etc., instead of just looking like sore losers.
