Fig 1. eCogra reporting a 3.13% hold (96.87 of wagers returned to players (minus) 100. (total wagers)=3.13)
Fig 2. Gaming authorities reporting a 17.81% hold (82.19% of wagers returned to player (minus) 100. (total wagers)=17.81)
The original question was, are there that many good table players that play online vs. B&M casinos? Don't think so
You are still not getting it. The figures in the ecogra report are expressed as a percentage of the total amount wagered. The hold is calculated as a percentage of chips bought or amount deposited into machines. See also http://wizardofodds.com/houseedge, scroll down to see the definition of hold.
