I've read in the past that when the EPROM's are manufactured they are delivered to Nevada Gaming for testing before they can be placed in a machine. And there has to be a Gaming agent present when the chips are placed in the machines. They are placed with a seal so a Gaming Agent can tell if the chip has been tampered with. Then they make random checks of machines to insure their integrity.
In 2005/6 I spent about a year in Ely, Nevada. There were a dozen Spin Pokers in the Hotel Nevada that had full pay joker poker (100.64%). There were multiple permanent promotions running. In short, they were paying me $1000 a week to play a game in which I already had an edge.
While I was there Gaming came in and tested a bunch of machines. I had a pretty good relationship with the assistant casino manager and we talked quite a bit. He told me that Gaming told him that the chips in the Spins Pokers had to be replaced. I asked him why. He said the only reason Gaming gave him was the chips were to old.
