Slot machine
如下是此词条的第一段简介：
”
A slot machine (American English), informally fruit machine (British English), puggy (Scottish English slang),
[1]
the slots (Canadian and American English), poker machine (or pokies in slang) (Australian English and New Zealand English) or simply slot (American English), is a casino gambling machine with three or more reels which spin when a button is pushed. Slot machines are also known as one-armed bandits because they were originally operated by one leveron the side of the machine as opposed to a button on the front panel, and because of their ability to leave the gamer impoverished. Many modern machines are still equipped with a legacy lever in addition to the button. A gambler strategically operating multiple machines in order to draw the highest possible profits is called a multi-armed bandit.

粗略翻译：
分条（赌博）机（即”老虎机“）（美式英语叫法），非正式名称也叫”水果机“（英式英语叫法），”puggy（抱歉这个实在不知道如何翻译）“（苏格兰俚语），”条条们“（加拿大及美国英语），”扑克机“（或俚称”pokies“）（澳洲及新西兰英语）或简单的”条“(美国英语），是一种赌场赌博机器，内有三或四个滚轮，在按钮后会滚动。老虎机也叫”一只胳臂的强盗“，因为早期老虎机是用一个在机器侧面的摇臂来进行操作，而不像如今这样按前面板上的按钮；同时因为这机器容易让玩家输个精光（，所以叫一条胳膊的强盗）。很多现代的老虎机仍然保持一个传统的操作摇臂，可与按钮并行使用。有的赌徒有策略的操作多台老虎机，以实现最高的可能获利，这样的赌徒就称作”多臂强盗“。（译注，多臂强盗还挺有意思！）
