Volumes have been set forth on this matter, and the contention and arguments about where the "hot" slot games are located in a casino are still taking place - sixty years after the slot machines were 1st placed in gambling houses.

The traditional rule is that the more favourable one armed bandits were installed just inside the main doorway of the casino; so that individuals passing by would see real jackpot winners and be influenced to come inside and play. Our conviction is that this is definitely no longer the case.

Practically all of the big name casinos today are jumbo complexes and it is not possible to see inside from the sidewalk, so there's no longer a reason to situate the 'loose' slots close to any of the doors.

An additional standard rule is that loose one armed bandits are positioned on the major aisles in the casinos, again so that more potential gamblers could see winning jackpots and be galvanized to play. Notably 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 slots 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 slot games.
