First, congratulations on a nice win!
IMO, the attendant should have inquired whether you wanted to cash
out your $2,000 and forfeit the last four hands. If the attendant
did NOT ask the question, I believe that you have a legimate beef to
discuss with the casino management. You were shorted $60.00. Under
the circumstances, as you stated them, I believe that the casino
should make you whole, and give you the $60.00.
Some players might feel that it was incumbent on YOU to advise the
slot attendant, that you wished to receive the entire $2,000. I
would disagree with that assertion only because Guaranteed Play is a
very new concept. Perhaps you were not totally cognizant of the
consequences of not making the request in advance of being paid the
lesser amounts, in credits.
I do think that many of us, in the excitement of the moment, might
have overlooked making a request to cash out the entire $2000.
That being said, I have never played on a GP machine. I am not
totally familiar with rules regarding early cash-out. I presume
that it is possible to do this, even if you are "minus 60 credits".
I think that this is an interesting topic for discussion especially
for folks who are going to be playing the GP machines, and will,
sooner or later, run into a similar situation.

Playing $1 Bonus Deuces Guaranteed Play machine and currently have -
60 credits. I hit 4 Deuces with an Ace and the machine locks up
with a $2000 jackpot. The attendant fills out a W2G form for me for
$2000 and resets the game without giving me any money. The game now
shows that I have 1940 credits with four hands remaining.
Isn't this wrong? If I cashed out now I could not realize the $2000
that I supposedly was paid but only a ticket for $1940.......
