[vpFREE] "Play it Off"

Why do some, but not all, slot attendants request that you "play it off"-meaning your winning hand on the screen, after you have received a hand pay?

Have any of you refused to do so? Any repercussions?

Sometimes, after I have hit a progressive, it is not worthwhile to put any more $ through the machine. Or I want to cash out because I need a restroom break or am tired and want to go home. It is not because "the machine is now cold" – although many slot attendants are crazy superstitious and, I suspect, would accept that as an explanation.

I am thinking that this isn't any sort of gaming regulation, or even consistent policy within a company, as I sometimes have had different experiences at the same casino. Certainly, this can't be to prove that the machine is malfunctioning- I'd already been paid.

BTW, I'm grateful to need to ask about this "problem"!
