video Slots are one of the most popular games to bet on at casinos. On any night, bargain on most of the slot machines to be packed with eager players. They come in a good selection of betting levels; some only cost five cents a play while others can cost upwards of twenty dollars a spin. Although slots are a wagering tool, a number of folks are afraid of the big money table games and like the delight and thrill of an excellent one arm bandit.
The initial slot machine was constructed in 1895 and was called the "Liberty Bell." Created by a California auto mechanic, the initial slot games had three spinning reels with a cracked Liberty Bell, diamonds, hearts, and spades affixed on each. Prior to this invention, the term "slot machines" was employed to characterize different types of vending machines.
The initial widespread use of slot games in US casinos is attributed to the Flamingo Hotel, Las Vegas somewhere around the 40’s. The head of the casino had originally thought the slot machines would be awesome to intrigue bored wives of a few of the biggest high roller customers of the betting house. Little did he know that slot games would be an exciting activity for nearly everyone and that the appeal would go further than the tired wives. At this time, it is said, slot machines make up over 2/3rds of all revenue brought in by U.S. betting houses.
The slots certainly have a rich history. From the small invention of the late-19th century to the multi-million dollar industry of today, the slots will continue to grow in prominence.
