A casino operator is evaluating two new slot games. Game A has a high hold percentage but a low yield. Game B has a lower hold percentage but a higher yield. Which game is more financially successful for the operator?

Game B, because yield measures actual revenue generated per player, which is more indicative of financial success

Both games are equally successful because they have the same RTP

Game A, because a higher hold percentage always means more profit

What is the primary purpose of testing methodologies used by independent test labs in the gambling industry?

To increase the house edge of games
