I've known a few players, though they'd never admit it, who when they arrived home from their carefree gambling trip, didn¹t have money in hand (careless) to get their car out of long-term parking. They blew their remaining dough on an airport slot machine. That pell-mell disappearance is because an airport slot machine payback is notoriously low. With low paybacks, airport machines will gobble up your money in a hurry. Players should always distance themselves from poor paying machines, but in an airport, you are a captive audience for a short time, waiting to board a plane and get the hell out of there, and they know you ain't coming back.
