Why is this a glitch? You bet 10 credits, you push you still have the 10 credits?

If someone pushed on their last hand and didn't have any more money or just wasn't aware of the banked coins and walked away, they would remain there available for the next player. I would imagine some of those old machines are still in use somewhere.

If you won the next hand you won your bet plus the banked bet but if you lost the machine won the banked bet. Either way the banked bet meter alwasy reset to zero after that next hand. Consequently, one only played one hand when they found a banked bet.

The game was in all the bartops in the Rainbow and the Peppermill, plus in many machines out on the casino floor in all three places. The game was on like over 100 machines. It's the only place I ever saw the game on more than a few machines in a casino.so

I could bet up to $20 per hand (no double up available) and ran a huge total wager per hour. The BJ got me a total free ride with RFB plus a lot of other extras. I took the earn from the poker rooms and the video poker progressives when they were up.

Sometimes, when I found the casino empty, I would go down the row or the bartops punching the game up to see how the last hand was played. There was a lot of bad play by the public and there was a lot of odd coin betting where the player didn't qualify for 3 to 2 on a blackjack. I never ran more than few thousand dollar wager on any machine at any one time. With TITO it was easy to keep bouncing around.
