Gamblers Warned About Eight Liner Slots
Using the video slot machines called eight-liners has been illegal for years, if cash is paid out to the winners.
The Van Zandt County Sheriff and even several customers tell KLTV that's exactly what has been happening at six locations in all parts of the county.
"One lady contacted us and said she was addicted to these machines and she said, 'I'm wasting all my money..."
"Please eradicate them," says Van Zandt County Sheriff Pat Burnett. "They paid their money and when they won, they were paid back in cash, and that's not legal," Burnett says.
Customers were given warnings, though none of those we spoke with believed they were breaking the law -- despite saying they paid cash to play and got cash when they won.
