I have it as them paying 49% of the take back to the purses, so they are keeping 51% of it.

So 53% was incorrect, I am just trying to understand it, so I can figure out a solution, and then make a bunch of money on the solution

Yes, cause clearly the logical solution is that the money needs to be split up among more entities.

That 277k was paid for purses, however part of that time, what is now twinspires was still americatab, which was under Beulah for some of that time, skewing the numbers.
