Volumes have been stated on this matter, and the conflict and disagreement about where the "hot" video slots are located in a casino are still intense – more than sixty yrs after slot machine games were 1st placed in gambling houses.

The traditional rule is that the very best slots were located just inside the main foyer of the casino; so that folks passing by would see jackpot winners and be stirred to come inside and play. Our deduction is that this is no longer the case.

Most of the big name casinos today are enormous complexes and you can no longer see inside from the sidewalk, so there’s no longer a reason to have the ‘loose’ slot machines near to any entrances.

Yet another standard rule is that loose slots are installed on the major aisles inside the casinos, again so that more potential players could see winning jackpots and be motivated 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 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!

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