An opening with a 25% win percentage has an average number of wins since there are typically 4 players per game. Won % indicates how often a particular gang setup wins.  The yellow background shows an invalid starting gang (which was, nevertheless, used once due to inattentive opponents).  The highest legal price for a starting gang is $2,900.
