Volumes have been set forth on this subject, and the contention and face-offs about where the "hot" slot machine games are located in a casino are still passionate – over sixty yrs after slot machine games were 1st installed in gambling dens.
The traditional rule is that the most favorable one armed bandits were installed just inside the main door of the casino; so that casino fanatics going by would be able to see actual jackpot winners and be baited to come unto the gaming floor and play. Our resolve is that this is definitely no longer true.
The majority of the large casinos presently are enormous complexes … you can no longer see inside from the sidewalk, so there’s no longer a reason to put the ‘loose’ slot machine games close-by any entrances or exits.
Yet another standard rule is that loose slot machines are put on the major aisles inside the casinos, again so that more folks could see winning jackpots and be inspired 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 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!
These days, casinos are constantly changing their perspective about where to place the loose slots.
