In the pool of slot machines, there are some machines which give frequent payouts. In the casino language, such slot machines are called as loose slots. In some countries loose slots are also called as fruit machines. These are the high yield machines, but there is no specific standard to meet and hence, the definition of a loose slot varies from person to person. Generally, a machine having a pyout percentage close to 100, say 98% for example, may qualify to be a loose slot. But the 98% payout doesn’t payout at this rate to each and every player that gambles over that machine. The 98% refers to the overall payout percentage.
In a casino, there are some obvious places where the probability of finding a loose slot is high. Some of these points are as follows:
Cross paths: these are the areas a player has to pass through to go to various slots or other gaming zones. A lot of cheerful voices here attract the players.
Near the cafe or lounge: when there is a lot of winning taking place near the cafeteria, the player may get tempted to rush back to the gaming and the break time is shortened
Benders with clear visibility: in every casino, one can find an area from where most of the slots are easily visible. While having a pint, if a winning spot is clearly visible, it certainly attracts the gamblers.
These are some points where casinos strategically place loose slots. But there is no guarantee to find a loose slot in the above mentioned junctions. Patient and thoughtful observation may help one spot a loose slot in the casino.
