That was awfully nice of him to move over so you could take a picture.

Great serendipity last night, unless he sensed me and chose to accommodate my shot. They seemed rather sanguine. He may have been pondering his won loss statement. He'll never lose those player cards. That stack and its absurd lanyard could choke a horse.

Not to point out the obvious but "those player cards" and absurd lanyard you reference are not the player's cards. That is the activity card for the slot attendant who is processing the winnings.

Oh, right. I obviously have not experienced the process first hand; you’re an old hand.

The extra coin players are "everywhere!" So I'll add a recent story. GN Lake Charles the trip before last, a regular older gentleman, (OK, he may be around my age) only plays Ultimate X, he's up and down on denominations depending on play. I've watched him put $100's in for an hour or two and no big hits and runs where he might break even or go up some. Anyway, as I played two machines down from him, he got excited and immediately called his wife and family to come see. Since we occasionally talk to each other, I went down to congratulate him. His 3 hands $1 UX had caught a RF on the top line with a nice 3X for #12,000.

Hope it accounts for all of the losses I seen from his play this year.

Personally , I'll stick with the 5 coin versions. I lose enough without giving up another coin to the casino especially with the low GNLC payables. It's the same reason I play low volatility games.
