Most YouTube videos about playing the slots focus on what kinds of weapons you get for various symbol combinations, but like vending machines, the weapons you get from playing slots very rarely are better than what you already have, especially if you have an armory.
Even the little carton near the Fast Travel Station in Sanctuary will give eridium two or three times in a hundred and isn't much trouble to check. However, the slots award eridium at a much higher rate and overall, with a lot less trouble, although I still check Roland's and Scooter's if I have to go into or even pass nearby either place. You may go several trips to either place and get nothing, but then get 4-6 bars of eridium in one trip. I would average about 1 bar of eridium per trip to Roland's per visit and maybe average 1 bar for every 2 trips to Scooter's. At one time, after getting to Sanctuary I would look for eridium in the lockers in Roland's headquarters and in Scooter's, then Save-Quit-Continue and do it again.
