Slot

In video slots the winning lines are defined by a set of positions on the reels that when matched will earn the player credits. Each slot machine has its own set of symbols, which will vary from classic cards like Ace, King and Queen to themed symbols fitting the game theme (like those found on the National Lampoon’s Vegas Vacation movie). When it comes to probability, slots use a random number generator that determines whether a spin wins or loses and how much each win is. Having low volatility, meaning the slot pays out often but the amount is smaller, is usually considered a good thing as it lowers a player’s risk of loss and can keep them playing longer.

A slot is also an authorized time and place for a flight at an airport, as determined by air traffic control:

The term slot is also used in ice hockey to refer to the area directly in front of an opposing team’s goal:

Defensemen will often position themselves in the high slot right in between the face-off circles so that they can rip a slap shot on the net without having to worry about deflection. Wingers and centers, on the other hand, prefer to stay in the low slot where they can shoot wrist shots and have a straight-on view of the goalie. This is what allows them to score with one-timer shots that can be a game changer for their team.
