@aisarcore Such a great guy, I'll like to have his type as a friend

A broke gambler found a bug in a Las Vegas casino's video poker machine. He called his friend. Between them, they took $500,000 from casinos across America. The FBI charged them with hacking. A judge threw the case out because pressing buttons on a slot machine is not hacking. – John Kane had spent years losing money in Las Vegas casinos. – By 2009 he was a regular at the Fremont Casino, feeding money into the same IGT Game King video poker machines everyone else played. – Then one afternoon he pressed the buttons in an unusual sequence and something happened that wasn't supposed to happen. – The machine let him replay a previous winning hand at ten times the original bet. – He sat completely still. Then he did it again. – He called his friend Andre Nestor in Pennsylvania and told him to get on a plane. – Together they worked out the full sequence. You lost small at the lowest denomination. When you finally hit a big hand, you switched to the highest denomination and replayed it. – The machine paid out at the higher rate every time. – The four machines they normally played at the Fremont brought the casino $14,500 a month. – After Kane and Nestor discovered the bug those same four machines cost the casino $75,000 a month. – Kane took $100,000 from the Fremont alone. Then they spread out, the Hilton, the Stratosphere, the Hard Rock, the Tropicana, the Luxor, the Wynn. In Vegas, Kane accumulated over $500,000. – Nestor went back to Pennsylvania and hit The Meadows Casino for nearly $480,000 in two months. – Casino surveillance caught on. Kane was handcuffed to a chair in a back room at the Silverton Casino mid-session. – The FBI charged both men with hacking under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, the same law used to prosecute cybercriminals. – Their lawyers argued one thing: pressing the buttons on a machine exactly as designed is not hacking. – A video poker machine is not a protected computer under federal law. – The judge agreed. Hacking charges dismissed entirely. – The prosecution tried a deal, testify against your friend and walk free. Both refused. – The wire fraud charges were eventually dropped too. – Neither man went to prison. Kane went home and started teaching piano. Nestor went home broke, and the IRS came for $240,000 in back taxes on his winnings. – IGT quietly patched every Game King machine in America. Two men found a bug in a Las Vegas video poker machine and took $500,000 from casinos across America by pressing buttons in the right sequence. The FBI called it hacking. A federal judge called it playing the game.
