Just ask a slot attendant. Dont rely on anything or anyone else.

last year the buses to my casino were running frequently so i could stay as long as i want but now its a get in and get out type of deal so my play time is short.

however i recall when i put my coat on a machine i went to use the bathroom, i came back no less than 3-5min and find it missing, the security swiped it!
Security likely believed that you had left and therefore took it for safekeeping. And so someone else could utilize the machine. Would you rather someone else take it?

next week i had to use the rest room came back 2 asian couple were on my machine didn't speak any english.

how does one deal with machine holding and 3-5minutes away from the machine?
It isn't "your" machine if you got up and left.

Try hailing a slot attendant and see if your tier status allows them to lock it for you. Otherwise, SOL.
well i had my card in machine and beverage on seat
no honour among gambler's these days huh?

Next time, spill your drink on the chair. That will prevent most people from sitting there.

People have been known to walk off with unattended player cards on a whim. You can’t be too careful! :lol:

Yes, did quite well when Ballys had 3x cashback for a whole month and you were also getting comp dollars that could be converted to cash or gas cards, Macy's cards etc.

Remember drawing to 4 to a royal and seeing one line fill in, and saying to the person next to me great, 4,000 dollars. He says look at the bottom line , you've got a $ 500 wild royal too.

Especially if they are premium cards that can be used to skip buffet lines and so on.

And when you come back? Oops, you should have thought your dumb comment out a bit further.
