Hi Gang: There is a situation that occurs which is aggravating to me. This is when a friend of the person playing is sitting next to them at an adjacent machine. They are not playing but refuse to move to allow you to play the machine. They will sometimes deposit a small amount into the machine to make it look like they are playing. Yet you never see them spin, and you know they are not. "Excuse me? Are you playing this machine? " I asked ever so nicely. "Yes, I have .05 cents in there, can't you see my credits?"  What do you do? All in fun: PMM2008

Before our local casino expanded, this happened a lot. It was so annoying. You couldn't get a machine because of this happening. Not much you can do. A lot of times they would say they were waiting for money or their friend went for money even though a half hour later you see them still sitting there waiting for their friend. lol Now the casino is bigger and has many more machines. Don't run into that problem too much any more. medtrans.

Hi Medtrans, Our casino expanded too so it's not as bad as it used to be. What amazes me is that these slot machines have plaques on them that state "only one machine per player"..Its not worth the plaque its written. I suppose if we whined to the staff they would intervene. But by that time...i feel like i would of caused such a ruckus....why bother. It really should be up to the staff to handle that. When a row is packed with peeps i really think they should step in. What i love more is when a seat is empty next to me and someone will ask...is that seat taken? There is no card ....no cash....and no body...and as always......the whole row is empty. But they want the seat right next to me! Lips

HECK NO!!!! LMAO That just means "PLAY MY MACHINE PLEASE!!" lol When I am at a casino I am there for two reasons, free DRINKS and to gamble!!! I get so bad, my ex wouldn't even walk near where I was playing or I'd tell him GO AWAY YOU'RE BAD LUCK!!!!!! hehe But for some reason he could always hear me when I start winning!!!!  Oh Wait---- How about when you are standing waiting and waiting for someone to get up at the $5 dollar BJ tables and suddenly a dash from nowhere and someone sits in the spot you had been WAITING for!!!!! It's always some little old lady, probably someone's grandmother so I can't cuss them out, I just pray silently that they lose QUICK!! lol That actually happened to me twice the last time I went to an "Indian Casino" so I just drive the extra 2 hours and go to Tahoe or Reno!!!!!! Woo Hoo

Had that happen once at a indian casino..I couldn't resist the response: "Well, you'll have to ask the casino, the last person who took it got arrested for theft" (They laughed and sat down) "Ummm..No, it's right there, so I guess nobody has taken it" (Walked away) "I am taking bids!" (she chuckled and sat down..Hi there! What's your sign?")
