Here are some links reporting the 2017 termination of the purchase agreement:

You are correct. I am still suspicious and can't put my finger on just what's going on. On VP I have seen it takes losing about 600 credits before a quad and thus my reasoning for trying,1200 credits at what works out to be 5˘,10˘, and 25˘ using the single play strategy. My wife no longer comes to play her penny machines as they are mind drudgers without any seeming fun or excitement (she would get excited over a $10 win). The look of despair on the players as they just sit there and play hundreds of hands without even considering moving. If the Horseshoe ever declines like this, I'm through.
