Won't discount your argument, jeep, but I welcome the new system (and expect there are at least one or two others here who do as well.
The problem this potentially serves for me is when I want to play at a bartop with a good game on a night when the bar traffic is heavy and I can't score a seat. Tends to be more than one player who has a few bucks in a machine and plays single coin for a couple of minutes whenever they want a refill.
Bartenders tend to turn a blind eye so long as the "player" is tipping respectively. "Winners" all round, except for me, who slinks back to my room in frustration, returning in 30 or 60 min for another check.

Great example of why so many casinos going belly up. Gamblers don't run casinos, bean counters running things. These jerks are turning millions $$ and worry that someone will get over on them for a bucks worth of booze . Bartenders time lost policing the "system" to check on players makes free drinks a losing deal for casino. Geeze! Just check for credits on machine and customer playing game, as in old days. Remember sitting up at bar and saying, "Give me a roll of quarters and drink." Casinos cost 500 million to billion + & bean counters nickel dime casino out of business. An old saying from past; "Penny wise and pound foolish." , if iI remember right.
Sorry for the rant. But, I really think many of the managers of casinos are morons. They hide out in job till owners or stockholders see even deeper down turn. Again , new manager. Unless they land a good operator, the cycle continues till closing.
Have good evening....Jeep
