"The designers at IGT [International Game Technology] use every technological trick and enticement to induce gamblers to play longer and faster. In video poker, gamblers may play dozens of hands at once. Some slot machines let players bet 30 or 40 coins at a time. The number of pay-lines--where cherries or diamonds might line up to indicate a win--can be dizzying." (HARTFORD COURANT) This article discusses the science and technology used by the IGT research and development team to develop the next generation of slot machines.
