On Regals most AP's like a yellow 110 or higher because they want a win factor built in. A 110 could be a 10% advantage. But a card builder can cut the other AP's off by taking a lower number that's around breakeven, say a 100 or even 90, maybe even an 85. You'll run a substantial wager on a Regal with an $18.75 bet level.
And when the yellow reaches 121 you can remove the card, then finish the play, to insure the big payoff on the end doesn't get recorded on your coin-in/coin-out. On most plays your coin-in/coin-out will be showing a big loss.
On the 10K's there was a war going on amongst AP's to see who would take the lowest number. Some guys would play as low as 99% to get the mail.
