How does this gambling machine works?

[Odusko]

Good day all, so I was at the vocanizer for wheel balancing today, and I noticed there is a local betting shop near me, Babaejebu that is the name of the local fiat casino that operates this Gambling business, the business os licence here in my country, but what surprised me was the machine used in playing the game, I saw some gamblers checking a board to pick number I don't know if that is a dice machine, bit the operator wasn't giving me attention since I am not a player and I asked him repeatedly what type of machine is that if it a dice machine or slots machine since he inserted a card into the machine after powering it.
Can any one here tell me what type of machine is this.

According to the Google AI Overview results ^{[if you're using the Chrome browser, right-click the picture and choose "Search this image with Google Lens"]} it's "a handheld lottery machine that agents use to print tickets and check results for Premier Lotto games and it's called the Baba Ijebu terminal".

It's a lottery game. It involves matching up numbers for small or big prizes, in exchange for the tickets that you see all over the place. It's just shortened to the term 'lotto' and I think I have included it in one of my discussions before if my memory serves me right. Baba Ijebu happens to be the overall/National Agent for all the outlets that you see. Several Nigerians have been enslaved by this game, but we are not ready for that discussion.

That machine appears to be a lotto machine, which I have seen around, and what I understand about it is that you are placing and picking numbers, which are being registered to their database based on the amount you stake. The result doesn't come out in an instant but later that day when the winning numbers are out; you can check and see if you won or not.

The machine operates just like any other automatic teller machine like the POS, ATM etc. The card gives the agent access to the central processing access where codes and figures are generated or imputed. I think every agent has a unique card where they login from. Although it is quite different from the usual betting machine that operates with no card. Baba Ijebu betting machine and techniques is different from the usual games. They have different games and time frame that the results are released. Like there are morning, afternoon and night games.

With what I'm seeing from the image presented here, this seems to be a lotto machine, it is commonly found in local casino settings whereby gamblers can easily afford to bet their little games on it, it is a manual to operating machine very easy and affordable to operate without much skill required, but today I don't think many gamblers will prefer this method than using online gambling to place their bet.

I also know it to be a lotto machine and I have seen people predict or place bets on it but sometimes I ask myself how they get the money or where does the win come from when they get the numbers correctly, are there registered lotto companies like online sportsbook and Casinos? It's puzzling to me.

At a point I asked this kind of questions too but I got some little explanation from players at that time.

So winners get paid just like it is with known betting shops or casinos, online banking / wallet or physically. When they newly started, payment was through their kiosk and physically. For example if you win, you can present your ticket to any accredited physical kiosk/agent who will scan the ticket to confirm you won and how much you won. After that, you get paid the amount if it is available but if the amount is not available, you can be referred to another kiosk who has such amount of money. FYI, the agents sign out such money from the branches and they account for it using the numbers of won and scanned tickets from customers.

where does the win come from when they get the numbers correctly,

It is like lotto game. The numbers that becomes the winning numbers are drawn from machine like raffle depending on the time frame of the day, like morning, afternoon, evening games and I heard they have different names too. I can't remember them now.

Several Nigerians have been enslaved by this game, but we are not ready for that discussion.

Do you mean they got addicted to that game, or by enslaved are you referring to being subject of slavery because of their debts due to that game? In the case of the latter, that's really sad! Call me naive, but I wanted to believe that formal slavery no longer existed in our modern world.

The world slave to people means been in shackles of chains, and getting sold by the slave masters but that's not the case today, there are many ways that this modern world is enslaving humans.

I believe that this machine is lotto machine and what this person is saying have everything to do with people who plays the games, they are so freaking addicted to it that it matters to them than anything else.

It's them Vs this game in their lives, they don't have anything else they are doing and this lotto game is very good at milking the slightest penny out of them.

I'm quite unfamiliar with this device. But if you search on Google, it seems like it's a lottery machine that can print lottery tickets and check winnings. Interestingly, not all countries with casinos have these machines, perhaps because many are still unfamiliar with them. Even you in your own country are likely unfamiliar with this device.

The interesting thing about the Babaejebu as it is being called in Nigeria, is that you can bet as low as 5 naira or 10 naira(the lowest currency in Nigeria), winning a thousand plus or more if lucky. You can bet higher if you want, for a higher amount.

Another interesting thing about Babaejebu is that you can go through the results of previous weeks. You can pick your betting numbers from there, from 1-99.

I'm not from Nigeria, but checking online about this Babaejebu, I found this. I don't know if this is the official online version or different from off-betting. Our friends from Nigeria confirm this: you have two options to play lotto and sports betting, as described in this discussion.
To have an offline and online version, this seems to be popular in Nigeria; we don't have this in our country our lotto version is very much different.

Before they are operating with those machines, they already are licensed and registered, and the agent who brought the machine out should be able to pay out winnings either with cash or a deposit to the winner's account. They also have an office in almost all cities where you can take that ticket to the office to cash out your winnings; cashing out won't be an issue. Winning is where the problem always lies in gambling.

Both.
How many of those cases have you handled in your locality? I'm asking because you speak like a historian who got stuck in the past, or you just refused to evolve? Do you not know what the legosian have been through because of baba ijebu? If not, what part of Nigeria do you stay then--- I mean, it doesn't even matter because I don't stay there either, but all I do is read the news and analyze.

In the case of the latter, that's really sad! Call me naive, but I wanted to believe that formal slavery no longer existed in our modern world.

How did you know exactly what I was going to say? You're Naive! Formal slavery has nothing to do with this thread, so how did you come about with it?

There is an online version of this Babaejebu lottery and betting machine, I am aware of that mate and indeed the link you shared leads to the official site but unverified yet so I advice that anyone using the site through the link should be carful and only deposit a small amount of money, but the physical machine can easily be verified since their have verification codes and even addresses printed on the machine.

[Findingnemo]

I was searching for my reply that I posted to this thread and then I realized that I replied to your thread on ALTT.

Anyway, the reply is same and many other said it looks like some kind of numbers game or can be a lotto but its obviously different from the traditional one, maybe for the spot betting like if someone get the combination right they win the double or something.

Thank you for being kind to confirm. Can you please edit the link you quoted me in and just use a code, since you mentioned it's unverified.
I don't want to lead any of our mates here and end up losing money. I have also edited my post and unlinked it, and just used code. Thank you in advance, mate.

In my country it's called Baba Ijebu. That machine is a lotto machine for printing tickets like the first poster said. I see it all around the places I go to because there is always a lotto stand within the areas. It has been so common these days that even small children can easily identify it. Someone has even brought it to my house for me to charge it. This is the most common kind of gambling for a lot of people in my State.

I agree that the lottery actually traps down the life of a person unknowingly. Gambler is enslaved by figures and futile promises of fraudulent victories every day. This is a really shrewd machine in wringing out riches till they drip. Freedom is optional, and thus make wiser options; to put your life back to peace and quiet.
