I barely trust my atm card. Know how many players cards I leave in slot machines in a normal trip to Vegas? Too many. I already had my Freeplay stolen once. I don’t want my real money stolen. If cash in the machine is still an option, then I won’t care. But they’ll do everything they can to make cash more difficult. I know they hate emptying the machines every night. I still go downtown and play the old coin machines. They are much more fun than Tito.

Ha, yeah, it’s a play on “gird your loins,” which means to prepare yourself for something challenging (like battle or hard physical labor). You can also gird up your loins. Back in the day, long clothing (like a tunic) was tucked into one’s belt (or “girdle”) to allow for more movement.

You put in your money, its gone in a flash, and you want to feel better. You can’t feel any worse. You could lose 10x what you’ve already lost, and it doesnt make the loss any worse. A loss is a loss. But the hope of getting back even, and erasing this debt, means you will keep spinning those reels until your rational brain kicks back in. Which is why a break to walk away from the table is so important to the player. And why the casino wants you to never leave the table when you are on a losing streak. Cuz, at that point, you are their ATM.

Easier for someone to steal your money. Because now all they need is your P.I.N. at the reels. Instead of your p.i.n. at the ATM. Someone could just easily stand behind you while you enter your p.i.n. at the slot machine and then wait until you leave your card somewhere in the casino. And how many times have we all done that?

They are also hoping that some of the cash never gets used, cards get lost etc.

Holding your credits knowing the majority of players don’t know how many nickels make $100. I loved filling up those little buckets full of coins and waiting for my hoppers to be filled. Now we succumb to more technological breakthroughs in the name or spirit of “fair gaming”. Ooo Doggy!! Why don’t we just sign all our assets over to the casinos? Count me out. I’m sure I helped fund this disaster. Did Irwin Allen have anything to do with this? “Casino 2021”!! I can see it now. Are there covenience fees? Another marketing scheme. Just what we need.

And 100% true!! Personal responsibility has gone extinct in America. The wussification continues……..

ATM fees have gotten completely out of hand in casinos, why should we have to pay like 2% or more to access our own money? As far as the overindulging aspect that people are concerned about, it isn’t the casinos job to police what people are doing. If someone is worried they will not be able to control themselves they can put a limit on their daily withdrawal amount.
