Slot Machine RNG Buff
#11
How about making it so if you win too much you just get banned from gambling on slots by the company behind them.
That way there's no limit to how much you can lose, but there is a limit to how much you can win and keep playing.

This could take the form of a per-id ratio of winnings / amount wagered limit. If this ratio goes over a fixed limit (with a minimum amount of times played to prevent reaching it instantly on lucky first pulls), your ID gets banned for suspected cheating.

This ratio and the expected return of betting could be chosen such that it's inevitable to eventually reach this ratio. That way you can at least win a bit, but if you haven't won big/jackpot by the time you reach the ratio, you are prevented from using any slot machines any further, forcing you to go back into the round.

1. You can still make a bit of money, not much most of the time
2. If you're lucky, you can still hit it big
3. You cannot keep clicking the machine for 20min
4. You automatically get set on arrest upon being banned, for suspected cheating
5. Some high value rewards will most likely immediatly push you over the ratio unless you've been astronomically unlucky before, only a cheater would be able to win those

That said, I do see Waffle's argument of not wanting to portray slots positively, in which case these machines can remain as "decorations with interactions", which I assume is what "flavor mechanic" means.
