Meanwhile my personal question is, are slot games really provably fair? If odds can be set to zero, and no one be able to win, is it not possible that some casinos might be using this means or method to cheat slot players off their hard earned money?

DraftKings does not have any provably fair games and has never claimed this in any of their marketing. This concept of “provably fair” is very rare in non-crypto casinos. Sometimes games can malfunction and as a player you can’t be entirely sure that you were not cheated out of a big win without cryptographic proof of your bet. As we can see they were fined for $19k by regulators because their game didn’t work properly. The threat of a larger fine is what helps keep them honest. If the slots had actually been rigged they might not have a business anymore.
