When high-tech slots are in place, programmers will be able to control nearly every aspect of the game _ cost, payout, even the images that line up on the payline. Casino operators will be able to make changes in real time through back-end servers that talk to computer chips inside the slot machines.
I guess cost and payout is not the same as odds. Still, they could mess with the payout. It seems very difficult for gaming control, unless every game alteration is inalterably logged in a tamper proof fashion (good luck on that).
I'm not a slot player (yes, some occasional change used to go in, when they accepted real coins), but I would become very suspicious playing those.
