Books have been stated on this topic, and the controversy and discourse about where the "hot" video slots are located in the casino are still happening – more than sixty years after one armed bandits were first installed in the casinos.

The traditional rule is that the better slots were located just inside the main entry of the casino; so that potential players going by would see real jackpot winners and be tempted to come into the casino and play. Our point of view is that this is definitely no longer the case.

Nearly all of the large casinos nowadays are jumbo complexes and now you can’t see inside from the sidewalk, so there is no longer a reason to place the ‘loose’ slot games near to any exits.

An additional classic rule is that loose slot machine games are put on the major aisles in the casinos, again so that more folks could see winning jackpots and be roused to play. However, we find that this also is no longer a universal rule.

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 slot games 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 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!

These days, casinos are constantly changing their philosophy about where to place the loose slot games.
