The definition of a term fails WP:NAD and WP:NOTNEO. Does not meet WP:GNG. Ochiwar (talk) 07:17, 1 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong delete. Can't find any significant coverage where this term was used; it doesn't even come up in Urban Dictionary. Erpert Who is this guy? | Wanna talk about it? 07:50, 1 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete this is a real thing that does happen (though uncommon), but I've never heard this term for it. We already have a Cheating in casinos article, but I wouldn't redirect there as this seems to be a neologism. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 11:07, 1 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- If this is an actual thing, attested and notable per reliable sources, then it could be merged to Slot machine#Terminology. But if, as Erpert and Andrew Lenahan each suggest, it is a largely unattested neologism, then delete it. (Google Books backs up that contention: I find only one use of term there.) In either case, it is a dictionary definition and doesn't seem very likely to expand beyond that. Cnilep (talk) 00:20, 2 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
