The games are not 96% return, if you play when the Royal is high. If you don't want low return just play the highest meter--there will always be one.
A lot of people seem to be discounting the Royal from the return of the game. What is this new math? The RF is included in every other machine return you have ever heard or quoted. Why should it not be included here?
Also, everyone is leaving out the amount the Jackpot goes up while you play. This is at least .5% on the game you are playing.
From the casino's POV these games are 100.56% return with perfect play, easily the best game in the M, and certainly the fastest progressive in town.
