This idea about vulturing is something I saw and did when I first went to casinos and played slots. I remember NYNY having a slot called Break The Bank or something like that and it was in the late 1990s. There was a kiosk with four big machines. You had to hit five safe combination locks. You looked for machines with two or three locks that were already open. When the safe opened with the fifth lock you'd win $40 or $60 or something like that.
But you wouldn't see these abandoned "open locks" more than once a weekend.
I recall going around the Strip with one of the forum members looking for abandoned multipliers on UX machines. I think he found ONE at Flamingo.
I remember break the bank and they were fairly good when you found them. They came out about the same time as the shopping spree and x factor games including NUMEROUS other games like that. While you were only finding a few of them at NYNY there were guys going to all the casinos on the strip playing about 30 other games just like that or better. No doubt they were looking 20x harder than you were. You could make a nice living at just the Bellagio when they had all their banking slots. That's not even including their Net Pay and glob shopping game. When they were available you were making at least $700 a day on just that. Almost no bankroll needed for the Net-Pay, perhaps $200 and you would be set AND NEVER have a losing day. You just sat and played 1 coin slow to stay qualified until the bonus round came on. Once that happen you got anywhere from $30 to $100 bucks, it could come on multiple times in an hour.
