Volumes have been set forth on this subject, and the conflict and interchanges about where the "hot" slot games are located in the casino are still on-going - more than sixty years after slot games were first installed in gambling houses.

The traditional rule is that the most favorable slot machines were installed just inside the entry of the casino; so that casino fanatics passing by would be able to see real jackpot winners and be enthralled to come unto the gambling floor and play. Our slant is that this is definitely no longer true.

Almost all of the big name casinos presently are immense complexes ... you no longer can see inside from the sidewalk, so there is no longer a reason to situate the 'loose' slots in close proximity to any doors.

Yet another standard rule is that loose one armed bandits are positioned on the major aisles in the casinos, again so that more fun seekers could see winning jackpots and be energized to play. Interestingly though, 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 machine 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!

In recent times, casinos are constantly changing their philosophy about where to place the loose slot machines.
