Books have been set forth on this topic, and the debates and discord about where the "hot" slot machines are located in the casino are still passionate – more than sixty yrs after slots were 1st placed in gambling dens.
The classic rule is that the superior slot machines were located just inside the main entrance of the casino; so that individuals walking by would be able to see jackpot winners and be infatuated enough to come into the casino and play. Our belief is that this is definitely no longer true.
Practically all of the large casinos these days are magnificent complexes and now you can’t see inside from the sidewalk, so there is no longer a reason to situate the ‘loose’ one armed bandits near any of the doors.
Another standard rule is that loose slot games are put on the major aisles in the casinos, again so that more folks 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 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!
In recent times, casinos are constantly changing their perspective about where to place the loose slots.
