No, the difference between the purses they paid out and the additional handle was almost a dollar for dollar match. You have to be taking in many more times your purses in handle in order to be successful.
They spun it nicely by concentrating on the total number, which is not as important as the daily number. Basically, they ran 16% more days and received just over 2% more in handle.
