Volumes have been stated on this issue, and the contention and squabbling about where the "hot" slot machine games are located in the casino are still bubbling – more than sixty years after slot games were 1st placed in casinos.
The standard rule is that the superior slots were located just inside the main entrance of the casino; so that everyone going by would see real jackpot winners and be infatuated enough to come unto the gaming floor … play. Our reasoning is that this is no longer true.
Many of the mega casinos presently are immense complexes … you can no longer see inside from the sidewalk, so there is no longer a reason to position the ‘loose’ slot machine games near any doors.
Yet another traditional rule is that loose slot machine games are located on the major aisles inside the casinos, again so that more potential gamblers could see winning jackpots and be inspired to play. Importantly 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 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 philosophy about where to place the loose slots.
