The Four Queens has issued 8 $ 200 strikes in the past eight months (Four @ 125, Three @ 100 and One @ 200). Total issued = 1,000.
Number of $ 10 strikes needed to redeem = 20,000.
Based on Norm's number of $ 14.50 to win a strike on the average, total going into that strike machine = $ 290,000. In addition, there might be at least 1,000 $ 10 in storage waiting for the next issue. Total spent = 304,500 over eight months - an average of around $ 38,000 per month spent on the machine.

This must be the top earning strike machine in the world.

Mark Karoll deserves a pat on the back and a bonus from the owner of the Four Queens for being a marketing genius.
