[vpFREE] Harrah's Cherokee--Odds vs. Paytables

I'm pretty new to the world of VP and I decided to stop into Harrah's Cherokee to check it out. After visiting and seeing the mostly horrendous paytables (unless you're playing $5+), I thought I'd check the gaming compact to see what the requirements are for the payback percentages. As I imagined, the minimum is pretty low...83%. The maximum is 100%.

While reading, I noticed one little tidbit in section 5 (A2) that states:
"The Tribe shall publish the odds and prize structure of each Class III game, which publication shall be prominently displayed on every game."

I'm not really sure what odds they would "publish" on a VP machine, but to me, odds aren't the same as paytables. They're completely different. Am I wrong?

I wonder how many players would actually notice or figure out what it meant if they really published the odds on every machine.

Is it possible that trying to push this with the state AG might entice them to make the paytables friendlier?
