Alas, they are almost non-existant these days. I still check out a web-site devoted to sometimes EV+ slots, but the few they find are generally in remote places, or are so lame as to not be worth chasing.
As an example of what Sonny is referring to, the used to be a diamond mine slot machine. Every time a diamond appeared on a reel, it was added to one of several mines. In the course of play, the diamonds would add up, and at a certain weight the whole mine would come crashing down, and you'd score a nice bonus. Civilians , who didn't know the game, would play awhile and get the mine partialy filled before switching machines. A scavanger would descend and finish it off, reaping the rewards. It became fairly well known and I've heard one of the reasons for the games disappearence was that too many aurguments and fights broke out amongst the scavangers. To my surprise,I found just such a machine in Laughlin last year, but it never reached levels I thought were worth wonging in to.

Key word in your statement is "used to be."
