Volumes have been set forth on this matter, and the debates and discord about where the "hot" slot machines are located in a casino are still on-going – sixty yrs after slots were 1st placed in gambling dens.

The classic rule is that the better slot games were located just inside the main entryway of the casino; so that individuals going by would be able to see jackpot winners … be stirred to come inside … play. Our persuasion is that this is no longer the case.

The majority of the big name casinos nowadays are massive complexes … it’s no longer possible to see inside from the sidewalk, so there is no longer a reason to have the ‘loose’ slot games in close proximity to any doorways.

Yet another traditional rule is that loose slot games are put on the major aisles inside the casinos, again so that more people could see winning jackpots and be energized to play. Nonetheless, we find that this also isn’t a universal rule any more.

What casinos found over the years is that people walking down the busy aisles were frequently on the way to somewhere else. If they played slots at all, they would simply put in their loose change because they happened to be walking by. Win or lose, they would very often not stop to keep playing. And the very last thing a casino wants is for someone to win a jackpot by playing only a few coins and then not stay to put it all back in!

Nowadays, casinos are constantly changing their philosophy about where to place the loose one armed bandits.
