One third or more of the bonus machines are turned off.

Some of the bonus machines aren’t getting enough action.

Or, there’s too many guests so it’s hard to check the machines (and your legs hurt and feet are sore for walking around and not being able to check machines!)

It looks like there are more hustlers than machines.

Casinos are not offering promo’s for easy money (or generous comps for free meals).

Casinos are not offering enough free slot play to your liking.

Casinos have removed bonus machines or converted them into non-bonus machines

Casinos have made the bonus machines less profitable, e.g. converting progressive jackpots into static jackpots, changed RD reset to $2,000 from $5,000, etc

Slot techs are slow to fix problem with the machines

It’s taking forever with handpays

In my market, for some casinos it’s a hustlers’ convention; in the smaller casinos, it’s a ghost town. Hustlers are going to those places where they can make $$$.

I am seeing a lot more vulturing due to the competition. You might have three or four vultures camping around a few good machines. A lot of hustlers are pissed off at these campers tying up the best machines. So I need to remind people: No camping!

And you wonder why some hustlers are arrogant and spoiled or entitled. These are not your machines so get over it & get over the fact you are not making (enough) money.
