That channel - We Play You Win, which has more than 11,000 subscribers - is one of many in YouTube’s coin-pushing niche, which can attract millions of views each week. So in August 2020, the couple decided to launch a YouTube channel to make their new hobby more exciting. And winning their own money over and over again got boring quickly.
Owning their own coin pusher, of course, meant John and Cheri had to stock it themselves. Although the machines are legal under federal law, coin pushers that offer cash prizes are outlawed in a number of states. The aim is to set off a chain reaction that will push coins or prizes off a second, stationary platform and into a payout tray below. Players drop coins of their own into the machine and onto a platform that constantly moves backward and forward.
Coin pushers are amusement games filled with coins and sometimes prizes (including cash).
