No, It's not luck sir, It's controlled by magnetics, You aren't talking to an idiot sir!! And your wheel proves it, It goes to stop on a big amount, and it moves after stopping! You adjust the machines after every season, they either are slowed down significantly, or they just don't pay off. They take out chips, a lot! Also, on the gold tickets, well I've been through 200 Gold tickets and have not won 1 gold prize, only silver and copper! The cents prizes shouldn't be under Gold!! That's unfair!
