About Slot Machines

Slot machines are the most popular form of gambling in the world. Considered by "serious" gamblers to be casino gambling "junk food", the popularity and profitability of the slots is undeniably a gambling phenomenon.

A slot machine is basically a vending machine form of gambling. You insert coins and get a chance to win a jackpot. Like almost all other casino gambling games, slot machines have a built-in advantage for the house. This is because the chance of hitting a jackpot is always less than the payout odds offered by that jackpot. And this is true of all slot machines, regardless of whether or not they're mechanic devices powered by reels, or video slot machines powered by a random number generator.

Slot Machine History

The phrase "slot machine" is actually an abbreviated form of the device's original name, "nickel-in-the-slot-machine". These machines were originally set up using a deck of playing cards spread across 5 spindles. Since there are 52 cards in a deck, the creators of the machine took 2 cards out of the deck so there would be an even 50 cards. And the payouts were based on poker hands. These early slot machines were actually a rudimentary, mechanical form of video poker, and the games were popular in California in the 1890's.
