Books have been written on this item, and the conflict and face-offs about where the "hot" slot machine games are positioned in the casino are still bubbling – over sixty years after the slots were 1st placed in the casinos.

The traditional rule is that the superior slot machine games were put just inside the main entry of the casino; so that folks walking by would be able to see actual jackpot winners … be infatuated enough to come into the casino … play. Our resolve is that this is not so anymore.

Just about all of the mega casinos these days are titanic complexes and it is not possible to see inside from the sidewalk, so there’s no longer a reason to place the ‘loose’ slots near to any of the doors.

Yet another classic rule is that loose slots are located on the major aisles in the casinos, again so that more people could see winning jackpots and be galvanized to play. 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 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!

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