- 1 ball for 5 cents. Trap holes (28). If the player spends 40 consecutive coins ($2.00) without a payout, all seven backglass selections light up, enabling all 28 trap holes for payout. This was called "buying the board". The game flyer suggests an operator option to set this limit to be 30 consecutive coins. According to the Automatic Age article shown here, players would buy the board before shooting the first ball, a possible unintended use of this feature.
