A slot is an opening or groove in something that allows for passage of a narrow item, such as a paper letter or postcard. A mail slot at the post office is an example of a slot. The term can also refer to a specific position on a reel machine that will pay out a certain number of coins or credits when certain symbols line up. On older reel machines and some newer video machines, the pay table is listed on the face of the machine. On video machines, this information can be accessed by pressing a button labeled “Pay Table” or a similar phrase.

If simplicity, the thrill of massive potential prizes and freedom from complex rules appeal to you, slots are the way to go. But if you prefer social interaction, a mental workout and a bit of control over your destiny, table games may be a better fit. The beautiful Slot dining table from Italian manufacturer Bonaldo is a perfect example of a design that combines beauty with functionality. With its top offered in ceramic and marble options and base in metal choices, the table can be customized to suit the needs of each space.
