How Can D&b Operate Coin Pushers Legally???
The player has the potential of winning hundreds of credits for a single winning combination. You drop your coin in the back and once it is flat on the table, that ledge back there, pushes it foward, into the big mass of coins.

The “I just need to collect one more card” mindset adds on to the addictive, gambling-prone nature of coin pushers; when arcade-goers see a big stack of coins or cards so close to the edge of the machine that they just have to put in “one more token”.
