With poker in particular, I'd call being able to predict the machine's hand due to a bug in the software to be a fair outcome.

After all, reading other people's tells is what makes poker poker. Why is it suddenly a "bug" if a machine has one?

From what I understand, they weren't predicting future hands. They were switching to the main menu and back repeatedly to cash out on the same hand over and over again. They weren't playing the exact same game over and over again, they were cashing out repeatedly from the same win screen.

Poker has very little to do with reading other people's tells. If a player relies on reading another in order to play his game, the first player is probably not going to do too well.
