I disagree for the following reason.
Mickey is hitting progressives at these bars or whatever places he goes to. That progressive was going to be hit by somebody sometime so why would the proprietor care who hits it ?
The locals who built up that jackpot might care if some outsider snapped up their progressive, but unless the casino owners really care if customer "A" wins instead of customer "B" then I can't see where they would care otherwise.
Regards
A.P.

I disagree completely. Unless you mean it literally. The casinos themselves don't care --- because casinos are a building. But the owners and managers can care a lot.
You're assuming casino owners in Montana are "enlightened." Some are, of course, but many of these are Mom and Pop "stores" and somebody coming in and hitting them for several thousand can be stressful. You've seen players get upset at pretty small losses. I've never played in Montana, but I bet some of these same types of personalities run the bars Mickey hits and get upset every time he whacks them.
Which is one reason, I assume, he stays on the move and doesn't overstay his welcome at any one place.
