Books have been stated on this issue, and the controversy and feuds about where the "hot" slot machine games are positioned in the casino are still passionate – more than 60 yrs after slot machines were 1st placed in gambling dens.

The standard rule is that the very best one armed bandits were put just inside the door of the casino; so that individuals going by would be able to see jackpot winners and be infatuated enough to come into the casino and play. Our slant is that this is not so anymore.

Just about all of the large casinos nowadays are oversized complexes and you no longer can see inside from the sidewalk, so there is no longer a reason to have the ‘loose’ one armed bandits close-by any exits.

Yet another standard rule is that loose slot machine games are put on the major aisles inside the casinos, again so that more potential gamblers could see winning jackpots and be energized to play. Notably 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 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 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 machines.
