Right. This is a rating system. The famous Don Schlesinger (has a wiki page) invented it I believe so if you don't like it take it up with him. In the real world of course you can't bet $2.9412... per hand, whether at table games or a machine. However, under the Kelly system, you can always bet less, in fact that's a real good idea, to cover the unknown unknowns. It's a fallacy that you have to always bet the exact optimal Kelly bet, which is a good thing because almost always that is not an allowed bet size. If you'd like you can adjust the S.C.O.R.E. rating to cover allowed bet sizes less than or equal to the optimal Kelly bet, the allowed bet sizes on machines being different than the allowed bet sizes at table games. And your bankroll may actually be several multiples of $10,000. In my mind the way to think of this rating system is that it represents the hourly return assuming what is probably a hypothetical optimum Kelly bet and per $10,000 of bankroll. If your bankroll was $20,000, you'd double it, and so on. If you're not playing 1000 hands per hour on machines or 100 hands per hour on tables or IGT headsup poker, you can make that adjustment as well.
