Quoted from MrBally:To be fair, he didn't put in a token or swipe a card to play it. If he put in money or something of perceived value; he more than likely would not have walked away from the machine until he was finished with the game and collected his tickets.
And if the tickets had a perceived value. I assume there wasn't a Redemption Counter around there anywhere. It defeats the purpose of Redemption Play doesn't it, they don't play for fun but to maximize ticket output?
