Exactly!! It's like playing Poker for play money on the internet. Has no real world meaning to me either.

on arm bandits are the curse of the world, not a bad picture though. the B/W adds the candid press look.

I would have prefered the focus on the gambler rather than the fruit machine. The background is definitely too cluttered which spoils the composition. The crop could be much tighter by removing the bottom of the shot. The face of the gambler is currently too high in the frame. The expression isn't amazing, this could be any fruit machine with any gambler at any point. The skill is to capture something a little unusual... a special moment.

A great typical view of a one-armed bandit player - clutching the purse, staring kinda blankly as the wheels spin.

This picture does a nice job capturing the ethos of the slots. It tells a story. And it creates an emotional response in me. Very good job. Hope I'm wrong but I fear it won't score well here. I, for one, am giving it a good score! Good luck!
