KERSHAW COUNTY (WACH) -- Officials seized several video poker machines from stores across Kershaw County.

Deputies and SLED agents discovered the six illegal machines at three different businesses Wednesday.

The E-Z Party Shop in Elgin, the Lucky 7 in Lugoff and the Winners Circle in Bethune were all cited for having two machines at each store.

Employees say the winners were paid in cash and lottery tickets.

South Carolina law bans video poker style gaming machines in businesses.  Do you agree with the law?  Leave a comment below.
