Tourist beats the odds in Vegas, slot machine malfunctioned

A tourist in Las Vegas hit the jackpot on a slot machine last month, but he was never informed due to a malfunction in the machine, according to gaming officials.

Now after an exhaustive search, the Nevada Gaming Control Board says they have identified the winner of the nearly $230,000 prize.
On January 8, a man, later identified by officials as Robert Taylor, played a slot machine at Treasure Island Hotel and Casino. Due to a communications error, according to gaming officials, the slot machine malfunctioned and didn't notify Taylor or casino personnel that he was a winner.

The board secured the collection of the jackpot and notified Taylor of his win on Jan. 28, and he’ll return to the casino to collect his winnings, according to the news release.

Been ten days and he has not gone to get the $$

He's probably looking for ways to keep as much of those winnings as possible.

Either that, or him and his wife are shopping for expensive toys.
