Honestly, it's far simpler than that. Most casinos these days have player cards that every machine accepts that from the players perspective can store money on, but is really just giving them the ability to keep perfect tabs on player habits. Combined with fully networked machines, it's seems futile to move between machines just to try and throw the odds around, as they're most likely tracked and adjusted in real time.
- profinger 11y agoI did mention that but that's good to mention anyway!
- feld 11y agoThey log every single button press you do, but they don't change odds on the machines in real time; that's illegal. When you setup a slot machine you have guards and cameras watching your every move. Software is validated with checksums before it is put into service. The exact settings you put in are in some states pre-approved by the local jursdiction for that machine for a certain time period (X years). Changing the odds of the machine is a ton of work.
