HM Revenue & Customs publishes a breakdown of revenue for Machine Games Duty here: https://www.uktradeinfo.com/Statistics/Pages/TaxAndDutybulletins.aspx

A separate breakdown for revenue from different machine types is not available. HMRC cannot make any assessment of the amount retained by betting firms.
