it sounds as if the minors (children) started to play on the gambling machines, then let their parents step up to the machines and finish the game for them. ('Ducking away' means getting down - probably off a chair in this case - and going away.) This then appeared on the casino's videos. I'm not sure why they would have won the lawsuits, though.
