Volumes have been stated on this issue, and the conflict and disagreement about where the "hot" video slots are positioned in the casino are still happening - over 60 years after slot machine games were first added to the gaming floor in gambling dens.

The classic rule is that the most favorable slot machine games were located just inside the main entrance of the casino; so that fun seekers walking by would be able to see jackpot winners and be keen enough to come inside ... play. Our interpretation is that this is no longer true.

Almost all of the large casinos nowadays are huge complexes ... you can no longer see inside from the sidewalk, so there is no longer a reason to have the 'loose' slot games near to 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 gamblers could see winning jackpots and be influenced to play. Interestingly 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!

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