jeux et re-jeux

Perhaps 'chain betting' or 'back-to-back betting'. It would quite nice to capture the idea of a cycle, as Alison pointed out, but I can't think of a way to do that.

wagered and re-wagered...

I think the idea is that turnover can't be measured the same way because, in the case of slot machines, it is the same money that is being "churned" or "recycled" through the machines. Some examples:
More than $520 million in wagers have been placed, although most of it is "churned" money that is bet over and over again. For the first 12 months of the year, gamblers lost $35.2 million in wagers.

The projections are inflated, yes. Delaware's never made more than $185 million a year. West Virginia's never made more than $280 million. To have that kind of a quantum leap to $900 million means that Marylanders would have to gamble something like $20 billion -- now a lot of that is churned money, or money you would bet again -- but $20 billion coming through machines is a lot of money. I think $900 million is a real stretch in my mind.

I think the "rejeu" is when you keep on hitting the play button or pulling down the lever

Yes, but I wouldn't really use the word "bet" in a slot machine context - that's enjeu, which is mentioned earlier in your text.

Thanks Phil. I guess, theoretically, you're betting against the machine, no?
