Books have been stated on this matter, and the conflict and feuds about where the "hot" slot games are installed in the casino are still ongoing - over sixty yrs after slot machines were first installed in gambling dens.

The traditional rule is that the most favorable slot machines were placed just inside the main foyer of the casino; so that folks passing by would be able to see actual jackpot winners and be enticed to come unto the gaming floor and play. Our perspective is that this is no longer true.

The majority of the large casinos presently are herculean complexes ... you no longer can see inside from the sidewalk, so there is no longer a reason to have the 'loose' slot games near to any entrances or exits.

Yet another classic rule is that loose slot machine games are put on the major aisles in the casinos, again so that more persons could see winning jackpots and be encouraged 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 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 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 philosophy about where to place the loose one armed bandits.
