Volumes have been written on this item, and the bickering and face-offs about where the "hot" slot machines are installed in a casino are still intense – over sixty yrs after the slots were first placed in gambling houses.

The quintessential rule is that the better slot games were put just inside the entrance of the casino; so that fun seekers going by would see real jackpot winners … be challenged to come unto the gaming floor and play. Our conviction is that this is definitely no longer the case.

Almost all of the mega casinos today are super-colossal complexes and you no longer can see inside from the sidewalk, so there is no longer a reason to place the ‘loose’ slot machines near to any exits.

Yet another traditional rule is that loose slots are put on the major aisles inside the casinos, again so that more persons could see winning jackpots and be motivated 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!

These days, casinos are constantly changing their perspective about where to place the loose one armed bandits.
