Approximately two years ago, I had the same happy ending at Casino Rama. Slot and security personnel collaborated to have the $300 I had left on a machine returned to me.

This was not the first time I had left credits on a machine (how lax can one person be?). Unfortunately, on the previous two occasions, (Barbary Coast and Las Vegas Hilton), casino staff either could not, or would not, be of much help, and I had to eat the loss.
