I would say “yes” and that the example she gives isn’t very pertinant to successful long term VP play. First of all, the person that moved over one seat would not have gotten the same cards that gave the lady the Royal, because the press of the Deal button to stop the Random Number Generator would have been at a different time. Steve Bourie of AmericanCasinsoGuide.com explains this in a nice video about the randomness of slot machines at:

But most importantly, if the unskilled player sits there for a couple of hours/days/weeks/months trying to keep winning, the casino will get its money back. You need lots of skills to be a long term winner as described in Jean’s books. Knowing perfect play for numerous games is just one of them.

A lady the other day next to a friend who just sat down, hit a royal on a .25 at MGM in Detroit. My friend was going to sit at that machine, but decided to move over one! hmmmm I guess it still get down to when the computer chip decides to hit.
