Books have been said on this matter, and the debates and discussion about where the "hot" video slots are placed in a casino are still taking place - over sixty yrs after slot machine games were 1st installed in casinos.

The standard rule is that the more favourable one armed bandits were located just inside the main foyer of the casino; so that potential gamblers going by would be able to see actual jackpot winners ... be infatuated enough to come into the casino ... play. Our observation is that this is definitely no longer the case.

The great majority of the large casinos these days are behemothic complexes and you can no longer see inside from the sidewalk, so there is no longer a reason to have the 'loose' slot machine games close to any doorways.

Yet another traditional rule is that loose slots 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 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 the 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!

In recent times, casinos are constantly changing their philosophy about where to place the loose slot games.
