The four numbers operators read first
Against locations your size (6+ terminals, 6,794 of them), your NTI/machine is −$2,103/mo vs the $5,109 peer median — bucketing by size keeps a small bar from being measured against a big one.
Where the money goes (August 2026)
Illinois law fixes the after-tax split at 50/50 and bans any deviation (230 ILCS 40/25(c)) — about $5,862 to you and $5,862 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
You earn a strong hold from steady traffic — the lever here is drawing more play, not squeezing the machines.
What an operator sees: An operator sees a well-run, efficient gameset — attractive, with upside if foot traffic can be grown.
