Volumes have been said on this matter, and the conflict and arguments about where the "hot" slot machines are positioned in a casino are still passionate - more than sixty yrs after slot machines were 1st installed in casinos.

The traditional rule is that the superior slot machines were placed just inside the main entryway of the casino; so that potential gamblers passing by would see actual jackpot winners ... be attracted to come inside ... play. Our inference is that this is definitely no longer true.

Nearly all of the major casinos today are titanic complexes ... it's no longer possible to see inside from the sidewalk, so there's no longer a reason to have the 'loose' slot games near to any entrances.

Another traditional rule is that loose slot machines are placed on the major aisles inside the casinos, again so that more folks could see winning jackpots and be energized 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 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!

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