Volumes have been set forth on this issue, and the contention and arguments about where the "hot" slot machine games are placed in the casino are still passionate – 60 yrs after slot machine games were 1st placed in gambling houses.

The traditional rule is that the more favourable slot machines were put just inside the main doorway of the casino; so that folks going by would be able to see actual jackpot winners and be titillated to come into the casino and play. Our leaning is that this is definitely no longer the case.

The majority of the big name casinos nowadays are behemothic complexes and you no longer can see inside from the sidewalk, so there is no longer a reason to place the ‘loose’ slot machine games close to any entrances.

Another traditional rule is that loose slot games are installed on the major aisles in the casinos, again so that more potential players could see winning jackpots and be galvanized to play. Interestingly though, we find that this also is not 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 slot machine 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 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 machine games.
