Slot Machine Location
Volumes have been stated on this item, and the bickering and feuds about where the "hot" slot machine games are located in the casino are still happening – over 60 yrs after the slots were 1st installed in casinos.
The quintessential rule is that the very best slots were put just inside the entry of the casino; so that persons going by would see real jackpot winners … be attracted to come unto the gaming floor and play. Our stance is that this is definitely no longer the case.
The great majority of the big name casinos nowadays are oversized complexes and now you can’t see inside from the sidewalk, so there’s no longer a reason to have the ‘loose’ slot machine games near any of the doors.
Another standard rule is that loose slots are installed on the major aisles inside the casinos, again so that more people could see winning jackpots and be motivated to play. Importantly however, 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 one armed bandits 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 slot games.
