$600 per machine per day. That's pretty amazing. When these started
popping up in in the Chicago burbs I was wondering how the numbers could
work. Strictly from a business perspective. For the bar owners it's a
no brainer. You're already managing a going concern. You pull the pool
table out of the back room and put in machines. The bar owners' slice
of the take is all gravy.
The strip mall outfits I couldn't quite wrap my head around. Could you
generate enough of a win from 5 machines to net a profit? There is
absolutely no other reason to enter one and no other real revenue
stream... and a fair amount of gambling competition in the area. In
the couple I've seen it sure doesn't look like they generate anywhere
near $600 per machine.
From a gamblers perspective, I can't figure out a way to make money.
There's no club allowed. The only advantage play I see is free candy
for players.
