Books have been stated on this item, and the debates and discord about where the "hot" slot machine games are located in the casino are still taking place – sixty years after slot games were 1st added to the gaming floor in gambling dens.

The quintessential rule is that the superior slot machine games were located just inside the main doorway of the casino; so that casino fanatics going by would see actual jackpot winners and be challenged to come unto the gambling floor … play. Our disposition is that this is definitely no longer true.

Many of the mega casinos presently are giant complexes … it’s no longer possible to see inside from the sidewalk, so there is no longer a reason to place the ‘loose’ slots near any doorways.

An additional classic rule is that loose slot machine games are installed on the major aisles in the casinos, again so that more persons could see winning jackpots and be influenced to play. Interestingly 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 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!

Today, casinos are constantly changing their philosophy about where to place the loose slots.
