Illinois law fixes the after-tax split at 50/50 and bans any deviation (230 ILCS 40/25(c)) — about $10,022 to you and $10,022 to your operator this month. Neither side can move that split. That's the whole point of The Gameset: with the split set by statute, operators compete for your gameset on service — games, cabinets, refresh cadence, response time.

Where your gameset stands

High play · high hold

Strong demand and a healthy hold — your gameset is doing well on both the traffic and the margin side.

What an operator sees: An operator reads this as a proven, high-value gameset and will compete hard on service to win it.

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 gameset 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.

This year against last, by monthSeptember 2026 up 76% on a year earlier
October 2025 – September 2026October 2024 – September 2025

A month that looks like a collapse is often just that month. Laid over the same months a year earlier, a seasonal dip and a real decline stop looking alike.

Seasonality check: August → September moved +72% this year vs −27% a year ago — so a normal seasonal dip isn't mistaken for a real decline.

Your town's market

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

Your own gameset is +76% over the same-month-last-year comparison — holding up as well as or better than the town around you.

Takeaways

•Each terminal earned about $6,168 in September 2026 — the 66th percentile of 8,629 Illinois locations that month. Per-terminal NTI is the number operators judge a gameset by, because it strips out how many machines you run.
•Within Berwyn, that's #18 of 62 locations 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 gameset keeps — was 13.1% — above the 9.4% state median. Hold is driven mostly by the games in the gameset, which is exactly what an operator brings to the table.
•A dollar cycled through your machines 2.25× 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 gameset health for both sides.
•High play · high hold — Strong demand and a healthy hold — your gameset is doing well on both the traffic and the margin side.
•After $10,794 in gaming tax, September 2026's income is split 50/50 with your operator by law (230 ILCS 40/25(c)) — about $10,022 to you. Neither side can move that split, which is why operators here compete on service.
•Recent momentum is building — +20% against your trailing average.
•Terminal Operator Eureka Entertainment, LLC runs 417 Locations in our data.
You're ahead of your market.

A gameset doing these numbers is the one Operators compete hardest for — and most owners never find out what that competition is worth, because they never put it out to bid.
