Volumes have been stated on this item, and the contention and disagreement about where the "hot" video slots are installed in the casino are still bubbling – sixty yrs after the slots were 1st installed in casinos.
The standard rule is that the very best slot machine games were positioned just inside the main door of the casino; so that people going by would be able to see real jackpot winners … be keen enough to come unto the gaming floor … play. Our conviction is that this is definitely no longer the case.
Most of the mega casinos these days are monstrous complexes … it is not possible to see inside from the sidewalk, so there’s no longer a reason to position the ‘loose’ one armed bandits close-by any doorways.
Yet another classic rule is that loose one armed bandits are installed on the major aisles inside the casinos, again so that more persons could see winning jackpots and be motivated 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 the slots 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.
