I may lose at the casino, but not with this. Hot out of the oven, the Mrs. Irish Soda Bread. Yum.

Yeah, that tracks with this NBC 2015 report (Similar to NJ):
According to Connecticut Gaming Commission, Foxwoods' slot payout average is 91.85%. Mohegan Sun pays back at 91.71%. CT has the eighth-highest payout rate of the 20 states requiring casinos to report. The best payout percentage by state is in New York. With nine reporting casinos, it pays back 93.75%. Resorts World in Queens, NY pays the highest returns, at 95.05%. The second state by average is Nevada, at 93.54%. West Virginia is at the bottom of the list, with 89.12%.
NEW YORK – 93.75 NEVADA – 93.54 COLORADO – 92.85 MISSISSIPPI – 92.77 FLORIDA – 92.46

Funny, there is a regular at Mohegan that abandoned his Vp play at Resort World in Queens and does much better at Mohegan. Not that it matters, but he is a math professor.

My car just told me she is getting anxious and ready to Rock and Roll. She is all gassed up and fresh out of the car wash. Tire pressure and oil checked as well. I told her to hold her horses for a bit. It’s at the peak of rush hour. The usual lunatics will be racing home or to the happy hours after work. Would much rather wait another hour or so. The Mrs is outside talking to her now. I think she has her convinced to chill for a bit. Will report back later as events unfold. AP…. If you are still there, your 4 leaf clover and I will stop by to say hi. Most likely will have dinner in the lounge when we get there if the line isn’t too long.

You said it correctly. Math credentials are no guarantee of real-world capability. Afaik, Resorts World Queens is one of the worst possible places to play vp because the games are VLTs. There's no skill involved.

I think I posted this already, but Jackpot Gents did a video on it:

At 2 minutes, he shows the disclaimer label on the machines.

Just past 4 minutes, he throws away a dealt straight and the "match card" gives him the equivalent amount.
