A barman in Sydney Australia has been sacked and brought onto investigation when it was discovered that he was selling out printed pay histories of slots machines in a Western Sydney pub. Slots players would approach the bar whenever they were about to play a machine and obtain a print out of all the machines to decide which machine to play. The payout history has no technical reliance on being able to predict when the next payout would be, but slots players would continually approach the barman to obtain the latest printout.

The owner of the pub discovered the scam when he noticed that slots players were continually approaching the barman. The New South Wales government has denied that this incident has any compromise on the integrity of the thousands of slots machines and operators around the state and believes that this is an isolated incident. Slots machines operate on a 100% random basis which has no reliance on historical data.
