Ok, I'm not sure if this is something that the reps will be particularly thrilled about posting but I have noticed that alot of the bigger name casinos quite happily publish their percentage payout figures, whether it be individual or across the board.
What I want to know is - what are everyones (casinos) and what are the mechanics behind them? The reason I ask is that I as well as everybody want to know that we're getting the best possible value for money - we are effectively paying for entertainment afterall.
These figures obviously change, so reps - feel free to post figures for as far back as December or so (4 months should be long enough?) and how do you calculate these? Who are you licensed by and who does the auditing?
I may be the only one here who thinks it would be nice to compile a small DB on this information, perhaps something CM could keep track of and publish on the site - I don't know.
I know there are probably sites out there that keep track of these figures, but I'd like to hear it from the horses mouth and have an explanation of how they work.
EXAMPLE - Intercasino recently told me about a payout % that simply shocked me - it was frighteningly low. However, they base theirs on a player basis and over 50,000+ hands. Other casinos I have consulted say that they base theirs on over 1,000,000+ games played over the month and take an average per game and then take the average of those percentages, which I think is a much better system since it effectively gives the smaller players chance to win bigger money.
See what I mean or do I need to be clearer?
