magikeren:
Anyone have the PAR sheet for Fortune Coin by IGT?
I will buy it. Write a Private Message. Need it for personal canculations only and will keep it confidential.

Badbaud:
There was no such thing. If there were PAR sheets they were locked in a safe somewhere in Reno.

magikeren:
All games must have a PAR sheet as I understand to show the authoritize upon request. :)

Hi, contributing members have access to our downloads area. Where we have collected PAR (Paytable and Reel) sheets along with PSR (Program Summary Reports) for all sorts of platforms.
There is currently nothing on file for Fortune Coin and they may not exist. There is nothing proprietary about these and if we had them we would make them available to you.

To level set the casinos are under no obligation to show anything to any gaming regulators other than to prove that the chipset that is registered with the gaming authority is what is actually in the machine. This regulation may vary from state to state. Most states however do not have a regulatory board like what you would find in Nevada. So other jurisdictions have simply adopted Nevadas rules.

When a game gets introduced (slots in particular) - the game must certify to pay back what it is purported to.
In order to certify the theme is played for 10mm spins, 4 times and the payback percentage must match within +/-0.1% of what is stated and the machines must also be totally random.
AND... this is on an existing certified machine type. If someone tried to bring in some brand new ABC slot - there are a ton of things that must be tested and certified before you even start talking about the theme that is inside the machine and its payback.

Secondly you can usually determine the payback of most video poker machines from the on-screen pay table.
52 cards are shuffled each time the game is played. With a slot you have no idea how many virtual stops are on a reel.
Their might be 8 symbols but there could be 24,64 or even as many as 256 virtual signs. Thus the need for a PAR.
If your not sure how to determine payback from the screen of a video poker machine I would suggest you check out Wiard of Odds (website).


Here is what the NGA (Nevada Gaming Authority states as their official response to people asking for this information:
Detailed descriptions of PAR Sheets for traditional mechanical three-reel slot machine
games are contained in the gaming industry trade magazine Slot Tech Magazine; these
descriptions are a useful reference source (Locke, 2001; Wilson, 2003, 2004a, 2004b,
2004c, 2004d, 2004e, 2004f). However, they are limited in that (a) the audience for Slot
Tech Magazine is slot machine technicians and so the articles focus on the practical
issues of how the information contained in PAR Sheets can be used by individuals who
are servicing slot machines, (b) the descriptions cover only traditional mechanical threereel
slots, and (c) the descriptions use PAR Sheet examples without indicating whether
those games are actually used in a specific jurisdiction.

sixcardmark:
S+ and S2000 games usually have 11 symbols per reel (less for some multi-line strips) and they can handle up to 512 virtual stops per reel.  For example: triple 10x pay has 260 virtual stops per reel.
