It's possible that they don't have the money ready and that's why they resort to just reason out that some bugs or glitches has occurred during the spin.

Or they don't just want to pay and doesn't feel that the winner deserves it. You know the management of some casinos are like that, even if the winner is a rightful and genuine winner, they can have that emotion and just have to say some reasons and refuse to pay.

the importance of playing a land casino which of course has a good reputation and also has a big name, at least it's much safer so you don't get cheated like that case, to be honest it certainly hurts that woman only gets paid for dinner, even though the woman should get monetary compensation even if only a little only because the mistake came from the casino

Casinos refusing to pay big wins has somewhat become rampant for obvious reasons. It's great for us to know which casinos are these to serve as a heads up for us to try and avoid them. If casinos don't have the money to py for wins, why should we trust them? If they're reasons are too ridiculous and unbelievable, why would we entrust that they'll honor the next big win that might occur on their platform? For all we know they are already going under and we might be in for a treat, so as early as now it's great to spot these casinos to avoid them. That $43m win from the lady is a gut-wrenching example that these casinos can just shrug off the win and even get the authorities involved to back them up. Really hard to fight these entities and all that we can do on our end is just avoid them to let them take a hit on their profits.

As far as know, incident like the OP mentioned is mostly common with land based casinos, from my experience so far with online casinos, i think its almost impossible to win such an amount of money from online casinos..

In as much as I feel angry in my spirit for I believe that woman was cheated big time, i still do not blame the casino as that amount of money is way too much, only a very few casinos around the world will pay out such an amount of money as winning and still remain in business, majority that can not afford would rather prefer to come up with some flimsy excuse and hope the winner of the money would understand, like in the case of the woman.
Others wouldn't mind having answering to a lawsuit than pay out such an amount, and don't mind having their casino shut down as well, as paying such an amount to one gambler also mean bankruptcy for the casino.

There is actually alot going in with the gambling industry and from my readings if I'm not wrong, it seems this incidence of the winnings took place over a year ago and I don't know why this issue resurfaced again bit whatever the reason could be, I think her compensation wasn't worth it at all.
I also read when it said that someone declared the machine faulty and I'm tempted to ask what the parameters for declaration of the machine faulty was used and just as OP asked and I solely wish to know what the response of the casino would have been of the winnings wasn't made and I also think the declarant should also be investigated as well as the casino and I think the woman brought the case now because she might have been saving up for to file for the case.

It was stated that the machine malfunctioned and isn't there a claim ticket that states that the actual winnings is  $2.25 (£1.86).  The woman did not refute the decision of the casino which means it is highly possible that the malfunction is correct.  A lawsuit case comes after a year the incident which I think someone had given the woman an idea to chase the winnings.  Besides the  New York State Gaming Commission also stated that the machine malfunctioned.

A spokesperson for Resorts World, Dan Bank, told CNN: “Upon being notified of the situation, casino personnel were able to determine that the figure displayed on the penny slot was the result of an obvious malfunction – a fact later confirmed by the New York State Gaming Commission.

But of course, we never know the truth if it really malfunctioned or if someone got paid to declare the machine malfunctioned.  But I will

But if the machine malfunctioned and if the winner won $1 million or very large amount of money but instead the machine stated that she lost her money, they will not tell her anything but she will lose instead.

On the other note,  scam casinos always find a way to not payout their player, even implementing different requirements but at the end the effort is vain because the casino is indeed fraudulent.

Some gambling site may not be able to afford that amount of money even if they want to sell their gambling company. Some may want to try and pay lower amount and see if it would work.

That amount is huge and it the best is for it to lead to lawsuit. If the casino can not pay, they will give the woman a better offer in a way the money will still be huge but not up to the amount won, but if the woman do not agree, it will lead to a court case. The woman would win as long as he has been abiding the gambling site rules and something good will come out of it.

I came across a topic recently now on this very thread about a casino refusing to pay a woman ber jackpot winnings of over £35.4m and if you'll agree me that, this isn't a little sum of money to just ignore.

What got me worried isn't just the winning but why are casinos getting away without paying players their exactly winnings with some shitty excuses ?
