Volumes have been stated on this issue, and the disquiet and interchanges about where the "hot" slots are installed in a casino are still raging – over sixty years after slot games were first installed in the casinos.
The quintessential rule is that the better slot machine games were put just inside the entry of the casino; so that casino fanatics passing by would be able to see jackpot winners and be infatuated enough to come into the casino … play. Our philosophy is that this is no longer true.
The majority of the big name casinos today are oversized complexes … it is not possible to see inside from the sidewalk, so there is no longer a reason to situate the ‘loose’ slot machine games near any exits.
Another traditional rule is that loose slot games are installed on the major aisles inside the casinos, again so that more fun seekers could see winning jackpots and be energized to play. Notably though, we find that this also is no longer a universal rule.
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 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 slot machine games.
