The largest bet allowed at a game. Also known as a table limit. In slots or video poker, a button to play the maximum amount.
UK slang for a slot machine. Some slot machines contain fruit images, such as cherries and lemons, on the spinning reels, hence the name. The original slot machines are also called one-armed bandits because they were operated by the lever on the side of the machine, and people lost money to them. Today almost every online casino provides reel slots that look similar to the slot machines. Some software providers even copied the fruit images used in the original fruit machines to make the online gambling experience as close to the traditional game as possible.
There are pubs in the UK that still offer fruit machines for their customers' entertainment. However, their return is set around 80% payout, which is lower than 90-95% payout in their online counterparts.
Examples:
I like to play fruit machines for their images.
Yesterday I lost all my money playing fruit machines in the casino.
A slot machine with wild symbols, scatter pays and/or free spins. Betting the maximum results in better payouts.
