Volumes have been set forth on this matter, and the conflict and arguments about where the "hot" one armed bandits are located in a casino are still rampant – 60 yrs after one armed bandits were 1st placed in gambling houses.
The quintessential rule is that the superior one armed bandits were put just inside the main entry of the casino; so that potential players passing by would see actual jackpot winners … be possessed to come unto the gaming floor … play. Our assurance is that this is definitely no longer the case.
Practically all of the mega casinos nowadays are jumbo complexes … it’s no longer possible to see inside from the sidewalk, so there is no longer a reason to place the ‘loose’ slot machine games close to any doors.
Another classic rule is that loose slot games are installed on the major aisles in the casinos, again so that more potential players could see winning jackpots and be inspired to play. Importantly 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 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!
In recent times, casinos are constantly changing their perspective about where to place the loose slot machines.
