Volumes have been stated on this item, and the controversy and squabbling about where the "hot" slot machine games are installed in a casino are still on-going - over sixty yrs after slot games were 1st added to the gaming floor in gambling dens.

The classic rule is that the superior slots were placed just inside the main entryway of the casino; so that everyone walking by would be able to see actual jackpot winners ... be infatuated enough to come unto the gambling floor and play. Our belief is that this is no longer true.

Just about all of the big name casinos today are massive complexes ... you can no longer see inside from the sidewalk, so there's no longer a reason to put the 'loose' slot machine games near any of the doors.

Another traditional rule is that loose slots are placed on the major aisles in the casinos, again so that more potential gamblers could see winning jackpots and be motivated to play. Importantly though, we find that this also is not 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!

Nowadays, casinos are constantly changing their perspective about where to place the loose slot machine games.
