There is no regulation--public or confidential--that requires anyone play off a hand paid jackpot hand. You can refuse politely or rudely and no one will sanction you but someone nearby who is easily intimidated.

If I don't want to play that machine anymore I just tell the slot attendent
no. Once the slot attendent tried to insist I play it off, I told them no,
you can't make me make another bet. Then he just took his key and reset the
screen. no problem. I remember many years ago in Vegas Stardust and a few
others would put the coins in the machine out of the hopper and then ask you
to play it off on their money. Those were the days.

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"!
