I was tempted to just go to the machine and cash it out quickly but I then thought to myself, "No, way! No one would just leave $200 on the table like that!" I even stood around the area for a bit to see if anybody would come back to play on the machine. Eventually I just left the area because I thought that maybe a worker may have been "holding" the machine for a customer while that person had to go take care of some business. I also thought that maybe it was a setup to catch someone stealing money also. I could just imagine the casino security shouting, "You there! Thief! We got you!"
