PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To return balls flowing down on a game area to a player. SOLUTION: In the pachinko machine, when a ball shot to the game area 3 on a game board 1 enters a starting winning part 28, a control device 31 executes a lottery, and after commanding a pattern display 32 to start the pattern variation, commands the stop of the pattern variation reflecting the result of the lottery. If the game is in a state advantageous to the player when the finalized patterns in the pattern display 32 are jackpot patterns, the control device 31 controls blades of an apportioning mechanism 23 to open an out hole 22 at the lowest part on the game area 3 and close an foul hole 21 at the lowest part on the game area 3 without driving the apportioning mechanism 23, so that the ball taken in the out hole 22 is collected on a shop side. Further, if the game is in a state disadvantageous to the player when the finalized patterns in the pattern display 32 are out-patterns, the control device 31 drives the apportioning mechanism 23 and controls the blades of the apportioning mechanism 23 to close the out hole 22 and open the foul hole 21, so that the ball taken in the foul hole 21 is returned to a tray device 13.
