Interview Questions for a Slot Player

The SaintDec 29th, 2006Posted by The Saint on

Driving back and forth to upstate New York for Christmas gave me a lot of time to think. And as I still am very much at a lose when it comes to the concept of playing slots, I compiled the following.

Interview Questions for a Slot Player
(Interview to be done while the player is playing a slot machine.)

  1. How long have you been playing this slot machine?
  2. What is the biggest pay out you have gotten from this slot machine?
  3. Why did you choose to play this machine?
  4. Do you believe that machines will go on “hot” or “cold” streaks? If so, how would one know when one was about to happen?
  5. How long have you been playing slots in general?
  6. Over this time, did you set certain lines, where if crossed you would move to the higher machines? (Ex. Move to quarter slots if the person started playing nickel slots.)
  7. Over this time, did you ever consider moving down to lower machines if you were doing poorly?
  8. What is the biggest win you have ever had playing slots?
  9. Do you play other games in the casino, such as Roulette or Keno?

That’s all I have for now. Obviously, some of the questions will work better based on the player and some answer could lead to other interesting questions.
