And slots free drinks could soon be determined by computer systems.<\/p>\n<p>This technology will be placed on table-top slot machines to determine who deserves a free drink. The tech measures how much somebody has bet and signals if they deserve a beverage.<\/p>\n<p>Ardent Progressive Systems and Games has already added these programs to 90 slot machines in Nevada.<\/p>\n<h2>Laughlin Testing Free Slots Drinks<\/h2>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wcpo.com\/news\/national\/las-vegas-casinos-may-begin-to-implement-free-drink-monitoring-on-slot-machines\" class=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow\">WCPO Cincinnati<\/a>, this program is currently being tested in Laughlin casinos. Laughlin is the third-largest casino destination in Nevada.<\/p>\n<p>The idea is to test the free drink system for a couple of months and measure the results afterward.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The hope now is, the trial down in Laughlin will be successful and then we&#8217;ve got several properties that are waiting to see the results of that and possibly implementing it in the near future up here in Las Vegas,&#8221; said an Ardent Progressive Systems and Games spokesperson.<\/p>\n<h2>How do the Slots Free Drinks Programs Work?<\/h2>\n<p>These systems feature a strip of LED lights that change colors based on your betting volume. Red means that you haven&#8217;t earned a drink, while green means that you deserve a drink.<\/p>\n<p>The system even has an orange marker to signal that you&#8217;re playing too slowly and not on pace for free beverages.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You will know as you play whether you qualify for a complimentary drink or not, as will the cocktail waitress,&#8221; stated Ardent.<\/p>\n<p>The company added that players don&#8217;t need to do anything beyond playing at a consistent level to earn drinks.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The qualification levels on there are very, very low so this should not affect anybody that plays for the most part, at all.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ideally, the only person that will be grumbling about this will be the person that wants to get that free drink before they go into a show by just sitting down at the machine and maybe playing a penny or wherever they can get away with.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Drinks are one of the most-common comps for slot machine players.
