Volumes have been said on this topic, and the disquiet and disharmony about where the "hot" slot machine games are positioned in the casino are still rampant – over 60 years after slot machines were 1st placed in casinos.

The traditional rule is that the best slot games were installed just inside the main entry of the casino; so that fun seekers going by would see real jackpot winners and be aroused to come inside and play. Our presumption is that this is no longer true.

Most of the major casinos these days are oversized complexes and you can no longer see inside from the sidewalk, so there’s no longer a reason to put the ‘loose’ slot machines in close proximity to any entrances or exits.

Yet another classic rule is that loose slot games are installed on the major aisles inside the casinos, again so that more fun seekers could see winning jackpots and be energized to play. Nonetheless, 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 slot games 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!

Nowadays, casinos are constantly changing their perspective about where to place the loose slot machine games.
