They are obligated to display the odds on each machine, so people have at least a fair chance of evaluating their changes (even if they odds are always in the house's favor). In this case, the odds they posted didn't take into account the poor suggestions given by the autoplay feature.
So the question is, does the fact that the player has a choice that would allow them to improve their odds to what was posted mean that they met their obligation in posting the odds, or does an autoplay feature that most users choose, because it speeds up the game and requires less thought, determine the odds that they are statutorily required to post.
The rules (http://arcweb.sos.state.or.us/pages/rules/oars_100/oar_177/177_200.html http://arcweb.sos.state.or.us/pages/rules/oars_100/oar_177/1...) state: "A close approximation of the odds of winning some prize for each game must be displayed on a Video LotterySM game terminal screen or a help screen. Each game also must display the amount wagered and the amount awarded for each possible winning occurrence based on the number of credits wagered on a game play." So this will likely depend on whether this is determined to be a close enough approximation, and whether autoplay suggesting a sub-optimal play that reduces your odds is considered to be a problem, if you do have a choice that would let you avoid that.
