Books have been said on this issue, and the disquiet and arguments about where the "hot" slot games are positioned in a casino are still happening - more than sixty yrs after slots were first placed in gambling houses.

The standard rule is that the very best slot machine games were installed just inside the entry of the casino; so that persons passing by would see jackpot winners and be enticed to come inside and play. Our standpoint is that this is definitely no longer true.

Practically all of the mega casinos these days are huge complexes ... now you can't see inside from the sidewalk, so there's no longer a reason to put the 'loose' slot games close-by any of the doors.

Yet another traditional rule is that loose one armed bandits are located on the major aisles in the casinos, again so that more potential players could see winning jackpots and be roused to play. Notably though, 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 the slot machines 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!

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