Volumes have been stated on this item, and the disquiet and feuds about where the "hot" video slots are placed in a casino are still bubbling - over 60 years after slot machines were first placed in casinos.

The standard rule is that the more favourable slot games were located just inside the main entryway of the casino; so that potential gamblers going by would be able to see actual jackpot winners ... be stirred to come unto the gambling floor and play. Our assurance is that this is definitely no longer the case.

Just about all of the mega casinos presently are colossal complexes ... you no longer can see inside from the sidewalk, so there is no longer a reason to have the 'loose' one armed bandits in close proximity to any doors.

Another classic rule is that loose one armed bandits are located on the major aisles in the casinos, again so that more persons could see winning jackpots and be roused to play. However, we find that this also isn't 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 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 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!

Today, casinos are constantly changing their philosophy about where to place the loose slots.
