Books have been set forth on this matter, and the disquiet and discussion about where the "hot" slot machines are installed in the casino are still taking place - sixty yrs after slots were 1st added to the gaming floor in gambling dens.

The quintessential rule is that the more favourable slot machine games were put just inside the main foyer of the casino; so that persons walking by would see jackpot winners and be convinced to come unto the gaming floor ... play. Our position is that this is definitely no longer so.

Almost all of the mega casinos today are gigantic complexes ... it is not possible to see inside from the sidewalk, so there is no longer a reason to position the 'loose' slot machines near any entrances or exits.

An additional classic 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 influenced to play. Importantly 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 one armed bandits 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!

In recent times, casinos are constantly changing their perspective about where to place the loose one armed bandits.
