Against floors your size (6+ terminals, 6,599 of them), your NTI/machine is −$1,468/mo vs the $5,066 peer median — bucketing by size keeps a small bar from being measured against a big one.

Your take-home
$7,017
your 50% this month

Illinois law fixes the after-tax split at 50/50 and bans any deviation (230 ILCS 40/25(c)) — about $7,017 to you and $7,017 to your operator this month. Neither side can move that split. That's the whole point of The Gameset: since the money is set by statute, operators compete for your floor on service — games, cabinets, refresh cadence, response time — not on dollars.

Where your floor stands

High play · lower hold

Plenty of traffic, but the hold runs below the market — the right game mix could turn that demand into more income.

What an operator sees: An operator sees busy machines with margin headroom — a floor where better titles and merchandising pay off.

Cycle rate is a leading indicator: when players start cycling their money fewer times, it usually shows up here before it shows up in NTI — an early read on floor health for you and for an operator.

These are the two series a service change shows up in. Fresher titles and faster response tend to move win per unit first; hold follows the game mix. Both are your own numbers against a neutral market line — not a verdict on anyone.

Seasonality check: September → October moved +46% this year vs +17% a year ago — so a normal seasonal dip isn't mistaken for a real decline.

Your town's market

Lyons's total gaming income is +9% year over year (trailing 3 months vs the same 3 a year ago).

Your own floor is −15% over the same-month-last-year comparison — the town's tide explains part of the move; it isn't all your floor.

Takeaways

•Each terminal earned about $3,599 in October 2025 — the 43rd percentile of 8,610 Illinois floors that month. Per-terminal NTI is the number operators judge a floor on, because it strips out how many machines you run.
•Within Lyons, that's #17 of 21 floors by per-terminal earnings — the fairest like-for-like, since neighbors share the same foot traffic and economy.
•Hold — the share of money played that the floor keeps — was 6.7% — below the 9.3% state median, which a stronger game mix could recover. Hold is driven mostly by the games on the floor, which is exactly what an operator brings to the table.
•A dollar cycled through your machines 3.66× before leaving — higher means longer, more engaged sessions. When the cycle rate starts falling it usually shows up before NTI does, so it's an early read on floor health for both sides.
•High play · lower hold — Plenty of traffic, but the hold runs below the market — the right game mix could turn that demand into more income.
•After $7,557 in gaming tax, October 2025's income is split 50/50 with your operator by law (230 ILCS 40/25(c)) — about $7,017 to you. Neither side can move that split, which is why operators here compete on service, not money.
•Recent momentum is softening — −21% against your trailing average.
