On VPFREE or one of her daughter boards; has been noted that EMPIRE is required to hold 8% of VLT action. Correct it's a shitty payout but may actually be better than AC for slot player.
If AC casino hold is reported at 8%, could be the slot machine hold is >10% while the VP hold is <5%.
Empire is 8% for both slot and the fake VP.
This could be noticeable and slot players would start to recognize the Empire machines are looser.
Another nail in the AC coffin and force AC to reduce slot hold.
But then again NY state could increase hold some rainy day.
I think this is right. If VP action is a high percentage of total could be very significant. Never have seen percent of total action attributed to VP vs. one armed bandits.
