Description of Business	Description of Business Accel Entertainment, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“ the Company ”) wholly owned subsidiary, Accel Entertainment Gaming LLC, is a terminal operator licensed by the State of Illinois Gaming Board since March 15, 2012. Its terminal operator license allows the Company to install and operate video gaming terminals in licensed video gaming locations throughout the State of Illinois as approved by individual municipalities. The Company also operates redemption terminals, which also function as automated teller machines (“ATMs”) at its licensed video gaming locations, and amusement equipment at certain locations. The Company is subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations in addition to gaming regulations. The terminal operator license, which is not transferable or assignable, requires compliance with applicable regulations and the license is renewable annually unless sooner cancelled or terminated. The Company operates 10,499 and 7,649 video gaming terminals across 2,312 and 1,686 locations in the State of Illinois as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. On November 20, 2019, TPG Pace Holdings Corp., (“TPG Holdings”) entered into a Transaction Agreement with each of the shareholders of Accel Entertainment, Inc. (“Accel”). Pursuant to the Transaction Agreement and in connection therewith, TPG Holdings acquired, directly or indirectly, all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock and preferred stock from the Accel shareholders. In connection with the closing of the transaction, TPG Holdings changed its name to Accel Entertainment, Inc. For more information on this transaction, see Note 3.

Summary of Significant Accounti

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	12 Months Ended
	Dec. 31, 2019
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of presentation and preparation : The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes were prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and of its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Adopted accounting pronouncements : In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ ASU ”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , which amends the existing revenue recognition and creates a new topic for Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The guidance provides that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. This guidance also substantially revises required interim and annual disclosures. The Company, as an Emerging Growth Company ("EGC"), elected to use the non-public effective date and adopted the standard in the fourth quarter of 2019 for the annual period ended December 31, 2019 . The Company also elected the modified retrospective adoption approach and applied the standard to all contracts open as of January 1, 2019. The Company's quarterly financial statement disclosure for the first nine months of 2019 reflect the previous accounting standard of FASB ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, and will not be restated for the adoption of Topic 606. The cumulative impact of the new revenue standard for fiscal year 2019 was recorded in the fourth quarter and reflects the adjustment as if the Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2019. The timing and amount of revenue recognized by the Company did not change upon the adoption of the new standard, however the Company's accounting for route acquisition costs was impacted. ASC 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs - Contracts With Customers (“ASC 340-40”), issued in conjunction with ASU 2014-09, provides updated guidance around accounting for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer and for the costs incurred to fulfill a contract with a customer. ASC 340-40 states that an entity should amortize contract cost assets “on a systemic basis that is consistent with the transfer to the customer of the good or services to which the asset relates”, which typically corresponds to the period in which revenue will be recognized. The Company chose straight-line amortization of the contracts as it felt that best depicted when revenue would be recognized and when customers are visiting the gaming establishments. When determining the appropriate amortization period under ASC 340-40, the Company evaluated the impact of any renewal clauses that are likely to be exercised. The Company focused on whether commissions paid for renewals were commensurate with commissions paid on the original contract. The Company determined the renewal commissions were not commensurate and the amortization period should include expected renewals. As such, the period over which route and customer acquisition costs are amortized was extended to include expected renewals which resulted in an increase to the average life to 12.4 years . The Company recorded a cumulative effect adjustment, net of taxes, to accumulated deficit of $2.6 million relating to the decreased in accumulated amortization of route acquisition costs. In addition, the Company's current year amortization expense decreased by $1.1 million. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which provides guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. ASU No. 2017-01 requires entities to use a screen test to determine when an integrated set of assets and activities is not a business or if the integrated set of assets and activities needs to be further evaluated against the framework. The Company adopted ASU No. 2017-01 on January 1, 2019. Use of estimates : The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and (iii) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates used by the Company include, among other things, the useful lives for depreciable and amortizable assets, income tax provisions, the evaluation of the future realization of deferred tax assets, projected cash flows in assessing the initial valuation of intangible assets in conjunction with business acquisitions, the initial selection of useful lives for depreciable and amortizable assets in conjunction with business acquisitions, contingencies, and the expected term of share-based compensation awards, stock price volatility and estimated stock prices prior to the reverse recapitalization discussed in Note 3 when computing share-based compensation expense. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Segment information : The Company operates as a single operating segment. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the chief executive officer, who has ultimate responsibility for the operating performance of the Company and the allocation of resources. The CODM assesses the Company’s performance and allocates resources based on consolidated results, and this is the only discrete financial information that is regularly reviewed by the CODM. Cash : Cash includes bank deposit accounts; uncollected cash in the Company’s video gaming terminals, ATMs, and redemption terminals; and cash in Company vaults. The Company’s policy is to limit the amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution. The Company maintains its cash in accounts which may at times exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. Convertible notes: At acquisition, an entity shall classify debt securities as trading, available-for-sale, or held-to-maturity. While the Company has no the intention of selling the notes, it cannot classify them as held-to-maturity due to the conversion feature. Therefore, the Company has classified its investment in convertible notes as available for sale. Property and equipment : Property and equipment are stated at cost or fair value at the date of acquisition. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Major additions, replacements and improvements are capitalized. Spare parts are included in other current assets when acquired and are expensed when used to repair equipment. Depreciation has been computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Years Video game terminals and equipment 7 Amusement and other equipment 7 Office equipment and furniture 7 Computer equipment and software 3-5 Leasehold improvements 5 Vehicles 5 Buildings and improvements 15-29 Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful life or the lease. Development costs directly associated with the acquisition, development and construction of a project are capitalized as a cost of the project during the periods in which activities necessary to prepare the property for its intended use are in progress. Interest costs associated with major construction projects are capitalized as part of the cost of the constructed assets. When no debt is incurred specifically for a project, interest is capitalized on amounts expended for the project using the weighted-average cost of borrowing. Capitalization of interest ceases when the project (or discernible portions of the project) is substantially complete. If substantially all of the construction activities of a project are suspended, capitalization of interest will cease until such activities are resumed. Concentration of credit risk : The Company’s operations are centralized primarily in the State of Illinois. Should there be favorable or unfavorable changes to the Illinois Gaming Act there may be an impact on the Company’s results of operations. The Company has high concentrations of locations within certain municipalities in Illinois which could impact the Company if these municipalities change their gaming laws. Fair value of financial instruments : The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, convertibles notes, accounts payable, contingent consideration, and bank indebtedness. The carrying amount of cash, accounts payable and short-term borrowings approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Company estimates the fair value of its convertible notes using a binomial lattice model in which a convertible instrument is split into two separate components: a cash-only (debt) component and an equity component. The Company estimates the fair value of its debt using level two and level three inputs by discounting the future cash flows using current interest rates at which it could obtain similar borrowings in consideration of the estimated enterprise value of the Company. Contingent consideration, which is recorded within consideration payable on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, is measured at fair value on a recurring basis based on Level 3 inputs. The fair value recorded at December 31, 2019 and 2018 was determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. Refer to consideration payable below for disclosure of unobservable Level 3 inputs used. Revenue recognition : The Company generates revenues in the State of Illinois from the following types of services: Video gaming terminals, Amusements and ATMs. Revenue is disaggregated by type of revenue and is presented on the face of the consolidated statements of operations. Video gaming terminal revenue is the net cash from gaming activities, which is the difference between gaming wins and losses. Video gaming terminal revenue includes the amounts earned by the licensed video gaming locations and is recognized at the time of gaming play. Additionally, taxes and administrative expenses due to the State of Illinois are recorded as video gaming terminal revenue and video gaming expenses. Amusement revenue represents amounts collected from machines (e.g. dart boards, digital jukeboxes, pool tables, etc.) operated at various locations and is recognized at the time the machine is used. ATM fees and other revenue represents fees charged for the withdrawal of funds from the Company’s redemption terminals and stand-alone ATM machines and is recognized at the time of the transaction. The Company determined that in a gaming environment, whenever a customer’s money has been accepted by a machine, the Company has an obligation (an implied contract) to provide the customer access to the game and honor the outcome of the game (in the case of video gaming terminals). The Company determined that the implied contract is entered into between the Company and customers satisfies the requirements of a contract under the new revenue standard, as (i) the contract is a legally enforceable contract with the customer, (ii) the arrangement identifies the rights of the parties, (iii) the contract has commercial substance, and (iv) the cash is received upfront from the customer so its collectability is probable. The gaming service is a single performance obligation in each implied contract with the customer. The Company applies the portfolio approach of all wins and losses by Video Gaming Terminals ("VGTs") daily to determine the total transaction price of the portfolio of implied contracts. The Company recognizes revenue when the single performance obligation is satisfied, which is at the completion of each game. Route and customer acquisition costs : The Company’s route and customer acquisition costs consist of fees paid at the inception of contracts entered into with third parties and licensed video gaming establishments throughout the State of Illinois which allow the Company to install and operate video gaming terminals. The route and customer acquisition costs and route and customer acquisition costs payable are recorded at the net present value of the future payments using a discount rate equal to the Company’s incremental borrowing rate associated with its long-term debt. Route and customer acquisition costs are amortized on a straight-line basis beginning on the date the location goes live and amortized over the life of the contract, which upon adoption of Topic 606, includes expected renewals. The Company records the accretion of interest on route and customer acquisitions costs payable in the consolidated statements of operations as a component of interest expense. For locations that close prior to the end of the contractual term, the Company writes-off the net book value of the route and customer acquisition cost and route and customer acquisition cost payable and records a gain or loss in the consolidated statements of operations as a component of other expenses, net. The Company’s route and customer acquisition costs also consists of prepaid commission costs to our internal sales force of employees. The commissions paid to internal sales employees are subsequently expensed once the respective licensed video gaming location goes live and the commission is earned by the employee. Business acquisitions : The Company evaluates the inputs, processes and outputs of each business acquisition to determine if the transaction is a business combination or asset acquisition. If an acquisition qualifies as a business combination, the related transaction costs are recorded as an expense in the consolidated statements of operations . If an acquisition qualifies as an asset acquisition, the related transaction costs are generally capitalized and amortized over the useful life of the acquired assets. The Company accounts for acquisitions using the acquisition method and records the cost of the businesses acquired among tangible and recognized intangible assets and liabilities based upon their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Recognized intangibles primarily include the value of location contracts. The Company estimates the fair value of the business acquired using a combination of the cost and income approaches, depending on the specific assets or liabilities acquired. The Company estimates the value of property and equipment and other current assets and liabilities acquired based on their cost, which approximates fair value at acquisition. Location contracts acquired : Location contracts acquired are accounted for as intangible assets and consist of expected cash flows to be generated from location contracts acquired through business and asset acquisitions. Location contracts acquired are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected useful life of 10 years . Goodwill: Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price and the fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible net assets acquired when accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Goodwill is not amortized, but reviewed for impairment annually, as of October 1st, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the goodwill may not be recoverable. The Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, the Company would record an impairment loss equal to the difference. Consideration payable : Consideration payable consists of amounts payable related to certain business acquisitions as well as contingent consideration for future location performance related to certain business acquisitions (see Note 10). Consideration payable, exclusive of contingent consideration, is discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate associated with its long-term debt. The contingent consideration is measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The changes in the fair value of contingent consideration are recognized within the Company’s consolidated statements of operations as other expenses, net. Impairment of long-lived assets : Long-lived assets, which includes property and equipment, net and other assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset or asset group may not be recoverable. Impairment of the assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount of which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. There were no indicators of impairment of long-lived assets in 2019 , 2018 , or 2017 . Contingent stock consideration : Contingent stock, which is provided as consideration in business acquisitions, is valued based on the fair value of stock issued. The contingent stock consideration is discounted using the Company’s weighted average cost of capital and the accretion of interest is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as a component of interest expense. Stock-based compensation : The Company grants common stock options to certain employees and officers. Stock option compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as general and administrative expense over the employee’s requisite service period. Income taxes : The Company is organized as a C-corporation and is taxable at the federal and state level. Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the book basis of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of the deferred tax asset, will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in the tax laws and rates as of the date of enactment. The Company follows ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes , for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The consolidated financial statements reflect expected future tax consequences of uncertain tax positions presuming the taxing authorities’ full knowledge of the position and all relevant facts. The Company files tax returns in all appropriate jurisdictions, which includes a federal tax return and three state retur ns. Open tax years for the federal and state returns are 2016 to 2018, which statutes expire in 2020 to 2022, respectively. When and if applicable, potential interest and penalty costs are accrued as incurred with expenses recognized in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Comprehensive income (loss) : Comprehensive income (loss) is a measure of net income (loss) and all other changes in equity that result from transactions other than transactions with stockholders. Management has determined that net income (loss) is the Company’s only component of comprehensive income (loss). Accordingly, there is no difference between net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). Earnings (loss) per share : The Company determines earnings per share in accordance with the authoritative guidance in ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share . The Company computes basic earnings per share by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the applicable period. Diluted earnings per share are computed in the same manner as basic earnings per share, except that the number of shares is increased to assume exercise of potentially dilutive stock options using the treasury stock method, unless the effect of such increase would be anti-dilutive. Under the treasury stock method, the amount the employee must pay for exercising stock options and the amount of compensation cost for future service that the Company has not yet recognized are assumed to be used to repurchase shares. Debt issuance costs : Debt issuance costs are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method, over the contractual terms of the related loans and are presented as an offset to the related loans. Reverse recapitalization expenses. Legal fees and other costs that were determined to be direct and incremental to the reverse recapitalization were recorded to equity as additional paid-in capital. Other fees associated with the reverse recapitalization that were not direct and incremental were recorded to other expenses, net on the consolidated statements of operations. Advertising costs : Advertising costs are primarily comprised of marketing expenses, which are recorded within general and administrative expense within the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Advertising costs were $4.7 million, $3.0 million, and $2.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2019 , 2018 , and 2017 , respectively. Recent accounting pronouncements : In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) . The guidance in this ASU supersedes the leasing guidance in Topic 840, Leases . In July 2018, the FASB also issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements , which provides an optional transition method allowing the standard to be applied at the adoption date. Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within that fiscal year, unless the Company disqualifies as an emerging growth company, in which case earlier adoption may be required . A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company is assessing impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which intends to simplify the guidance by removing certain exceptions to the general principles and clarifying or amending existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Although the Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2019-12, the Company does not expect it to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Reverse Recapitalization	Reverse Recapitalization As discussed in Note 1, on November 20, 2019, Accel Entertainment, Inc., consummated a business combination pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, which has been accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. Pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, TPG Holdings Corp. acquired, directly or indirectly, all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock and preferred stock of Accel Entertainment, Inc. In connection with reverse recapitalization, TPG Pace Holdings Corp. changed its name to Accel Entertainment, Inc. The consideration paid to holders of Accel stock in connection with the reverse recapitalization and subject to the terms and conditions of the Transaction Agreement, consisted of a mix of consideration comprised of cash consideration equal to the number of shares of Accel stock for which such holder of Accel stock made a cash election multiplied by $177 per share (the “Purchase Price”) and share consideration comprised of a number of Class A-1 Shares equal to the number of shares of Accel Stock for which such holder of Accel Stock did not make a cash election multiplied by an exchange ratio calculated by dividing the Purchase Price by $10.30 , which was the closing price of the common stock of TPG Pace Holdings Corp. on November 20, 2019. In addition, each holder of Accel stock that made a cash election with respect to less than 70% of its shares of Accel stock received its pro rata share, with such pro rata share determined with reference to a number of shares equal to 70% of such holder’s shares of Accel Stock less the number of shares of Accel stock with respect to which such holder made a cash election, of 2,444,444 2019 Warrants, subject to the conditions set forth in a warrant agreement and 3,000,000 Class A-2 Shares, subject to the conditions set forth in a restricted stock agreement. In connection with the reverse recapitalization, TPG Pace Holdings and its affiliates converted 7,500,000 of Class A-1 Shares, 4,888,889 2019 Warrants subject to the conditions set forth in the New Pace Warrant Agreement and 2,000,000 Class A-2 Shares, subject to the conditions set forth in a restricted stock agreement. As part of an Investment Private Placement, certain accredited investors (as defined by Rule 501 of Regulation D) agreed to subscribe for and purchase and Pace agreed to issue and sell to such investors 4,696,675 Class A-1 Shares for a purchase price of $10.22 per share, or an aggregate of approximately $48 million . The proceeds from the Investment Private Placement was used to fund a portion of the cash consideration required in the reverse recapitalization . In connection with the reverse recapitalization, Accel repurchased approximately 36,157 shares of its stock from certain employees, directors and officers at a repurchase price of $177 per share in order to facilitate (i) the repayment of existing loans to Accel’s executive officers, (ii) the exercise of vested options and (iii) funding any resulting tax obligations from the exercise of such vested options. In accounting for the reverse recapitalization, the net equity infusion from the reverse recapitalization was $29.3 million as shown in the table below (in thousands): Amount TPG Holdings Corp cash balance, November 19, 2019 $ 429,952 Less redemption of Accel shares prior to reverse recapitalization (413,733 ) Cash balance prior to backstop equity financing 16,219 Plus funds from Investment Private Placement 48,038 Cash balance prior to consummation of the reverse recapitalization 64,257 Less adjustments to equity infusion: Payment for sponsor loan (4,000 ) Transaction costs related to the reverse recapitalization, net of tax (31,005 ) Net equity infusion prior to stock issuance 29,252 Impact of stock issued in reverse recapitalization 10 Net equity infusion from reverse recapitalization 29,262 Less impact from conversion of treasury stock and issuance of warrants (7,415 ) Net impact to additional paid-in-capital from reverse recapitalization $ 21,847 Capitalization Adjustments The table below summarizes the number of shares of Accel issued upon consummation of the reverse recapitalization consisting of (i) the number of shares of Accel stock outstanding immediately before the reverse recapitalization along with the impact of the exchange ratio. Accel Capital Stock - pre reverse recapitalization Number of Shares Class A Common Stock 472,773 Class B Common Stock 662,228 Class C Preferred Stock 1,530,779 Class D Preferred Stock 944,925 Total Shares of Accel Stock on November 20, 2019 3,610,705 Exchange ratio 17.188531 Effect of exchange ratio to convert Accel stock to A-1 Common Stock 62,062,715 Shares issued in reverse recapitalization 14,574,755 Total A-1 Common Stock 76,637,470 Immediately after the reverse recapitalization , there were 76,637,470 Class A-1 Shares, 4,999,999 Class A-2 Shares, and 22,333,308 warrants to purchase Class A-1 Share issued and outstanding. Upon the closing, the Company's Class A-1 Shares and warrants began trading on the New York Stock Exchange. 2019 Business Acquisitions Grand River Jackpot On August 26, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire all issued and outstanding membership interests in Grand River Jackpot, LLC and subsidiaries (“Grand River”), a terminal operator licensed by the State of Illinois Gaming Board. On September 16, 2019, the Company completed its acquisition of Grand River. Grand River had 2,009 VGTs in over 450 licensed establishments. The Company completed this transaction in order to expand its presence within the State of Illinois. The acquisition aggregate purchase consideration transferred totaled $113.7 million, which included: i) a cash payment made at closing of $100.0 million; ii) a subsequent cash payment of approximately $6.6 million for a working capital adjustment and; iii) contingent purchase consideration with an estimated fair value of $7.1 million. The contingent consideration represents two installment payments that are to be paid, up to a maximum amount, as follows: i) $2.5 million within 30 days following the one-year anniversary of the acquisition closing date and; ii) $7.0 million within 30 days following the three-year anniversary of the acquisition closing date. These payments are subject to adjustment based on certain performance measures included within the purchase agreement. The estimated fair value was determined based on the Company’s expected probability of future payment, discounted using Grand River’s weighted average cost of capital. The cash payment made at closing and subsequent working capital adjustment payment were both funded with the Company’s existing credit facilities. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations . The purchase price has been preliminarily allocated to the tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values. The areas of the purchase price that are not yet finalized are primarily related to the valuation of location contracts, property and equipment, contingent consideration, and a final adjustment to working capital. The excess of the purchase price over the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill. The Grand River acquisition resulted in recorded goodwill as a result of a higher consideration multiple paid relative to prior similar acquisitions driven by maturity and quality of the operations and industry, including workforce and corresponding synergies, and is amortizable for income tax purposes. Management plans to integrate the Grand River acquisition into its existing business structure, which is comprised of a single reporting unit. The following table summarizes the fair value of consideration transferred and the preliminary estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition (in thousands): Cash paid $ 106,578 Contingent consideration 7,136 Total consideration $ 113,714 Cash $ 8,861 Location contracts acquired 53,200 Property and equipment: Video game terminals and equipment 18,000 Land 28 Buildings 548 Vehicles 600 Goodwill 34,511 Total assets acquired 115,748 Accounts payable assumed (532 ) Accrued expenses assumed (1,502 ) Net assets acquired $ 113,714 The Company incurred $0.2 million in acquisition related costs that are included in other operating expenses within the consolidated statement of operations for the period ended December 31, 2019 . The results of operations for Grand River are included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company from the date of acquisition. Grand River's acquired assets generated revenues and net income of $ 16.6 million and $ 1.2 million for the period from the acquisition date of September 16, 2019 , through December 31, 2019 . 2019 Asset Acquisition On September 23, 2019, pursuant to the terms of an asset purchase agreement, the Company purchased from Illinois Gaming Systems, LLC (“IGS”) terminal use agreements and equipment representing the operations of 139 video game terminals in 29 licensed establishments. The Company has accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition. The purchase consideration consisted of: i) cash payment of $2.4 million paid at closing and; ii) note payable of $2.3 million issued at closing which is recorded in consideration payables. The asset acquisition costs were allocated to the following assets: i) video game terminals and equipment totaling $1.7 million and; ii) location contracts totaling $3.0 million. The note payable bears interest of 5% and is due in full on March 23, 2020. 2018 Business Acquisitions The following table summarizes the consideration paid and the fair values of the tangible and intangible assets acquired at the acquisition dates for the Company’s 2018 business acquisitions (in thousands): Quad B Skyhigh G3 Mike's Amusement Family Amusement Total Cash paid at closing $ 610 $ 9,268 $ 36,500 $ 3,500 $ 1,512 $ 51,390 Contingent consideration payable — 4,324 1,026 — — 5,350 Promissory note — — — — 3,368 3,368 Due to seller — 618 3,019 — — 3,637 Total Consideration $ 610 $ 14,210 $ 40,545 $ 3,500 $ 4,880 $ 63,745 Cash $ — $ 1,126 $ 2,507 $ — $ — $ 3,633 Video game terminals and equipment — 506 3,009 — — 3,515 Amusement and other equipment 472 59 204 420 300 1,455 Location contracts acquired 138 12,519 34,825 3,080 4,580 55,142 Total fair value of net assets acquired 610 14,210 40,545 3,500 4,880 63,745 Quad B On September 1, 2018, the Company acquired certain assets of B.B.B.B., Inc.

The Company initially acquired 125 locations that are or will become operational. The following table summarizes the consideration paid and the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition (in thousands): Cash paid at closing $ 48,000 Issuance of common stock to seller 10,794 Contingent stock consideration 3,675 Due to seller 2,055 Contingent consideration 595 Total consideration $ 65,119 Cash $ 4,926 Video game terminals and equipment 6,363 Vehicles 126 Amusement and other equipment 1,148 Location contracts acquired 52,716 Total assets acquired 65,279 Accrued expenses assumed (160 ) Net assets acquired $ 65,119 The Company has a contingent consideration payable related to certain locations, as defined in the acquisition agreement, in operation one year after the acquisition date. The Company will pay Fair Share half of the Company’s share of revenue after the state taxes based on the number of locations expected to be in operation one year after the acquisition date. On the one-year anniversary of the date the location goes live, monthly payments commence for a period of two years . The fair value of contingent consideration due as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $2.0 million and $1.0 million, respectively. The remaining contingent consideration is included in the consideration payable on the consolidated balance sheets. The contingent consideration accrued is measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The maximum amount is determined based on the net terminal income for the related locations. The purchase agreement provided for $15 million of the purchase price to be paid through the issuance of Class A Common Stock in the Company. The purchase agreement allowed for an adjustment to the $15 million issuance of common stock to the seller fifteen months after the date of acquisition predicated on the estimated value of the Company at September 30, 2018. The fair value of the common stock issued on the acquisition date was $10.8 million. The difference between the $15 million provided for in the purchase agreement and the fair value of the common stock issued was discounted and $3.7 million was recorded as contingent stock consideration at the acquisition date.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]
Goodwill	Goodwill On September 16, 2019, the Company acquired Grand River Jackpot which was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. The excess of the purchase price over the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill of $34.5 million as of December 31, 2019 , of which $27.3 million is deductible for tax purposes. See Note 10 for more information on how the amount of goodwill was calculated. The Company had no goodwill prior to the Grand River Jackpot acquisition. Given the very short timeframe between the initial recording of the goodwill and the Company’s annual impairment test on October 1, 2019, the Company did not perform a full valuation by a third party to determine the fair value of its goodwill. Instead the Company assessed qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not (that is, a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that the fair value of its goodwill is less than its carrying amount. In performing this assessment, the Company considered such factors as its historical performance, its growth opportunities in existing markets; new markets and new products in determining whether the goodwill was impaired. The Company also referenced its forecasts of revenue, operating income, and capital expenditures and concluded the carrying value of its goodwill was not impaired as of October 1, 2019.

As of December 31, 2019 , there remained approximately $106.5 million of availability under the Credit Agreement. The obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company and its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions (collectively, the “Guarantors”). The obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of assets of the Guarantors, subject to certain exceptions. Certain future-formed or acquired wholly owned domestic subsidiaries of the Company will also be required to guarantee the Credit Agreement and grant a security interest in substantially all of its assets (subject to certain exceptions) to secure the obligations under the Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate per annum equal to either (a) the adjusted LIBOR rate (“LIBOR”) (which cannot be less than zero) for interest periods of 1, 2, 3 or 6 months (or if consented to by (i) each applicable Lender, 12 months or any period shorter than 1 month or (ii) the Agent, a shorter period necessary to ensure that the end of the relevant interest period would coincide with any required amortization payment ) plus the applicable LIBOR margin or (b) the alternative base rate (“ABR”) plus the applicable ABR margin. ABR is a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 1/2 of 1.0% , (ii) the prime rate announced from time to time by Capital One, National Association and (iii) LIBOR for a 1-month Interest Period on such day plus 1.0% . The Credit Agreement also includes provisions for determining a replacement rate when LIBOR is no longer available. As of December 31, 2019 , the weighted-average interest rate was approximately 4.45% . Interest is payable quarterly in arrears for ABR loans, at the end of the applicable interest period for LIBOR loans (but not less frequently than quarterly) and upon the prepayment or maturity of the underlying loans. The Company is required to pay a commitment fee quarterly in arrears in respect of unused commitments under the revolving credit facility and the additional term loan facility. Additionally, the Company is required to pay an upfront fee with respect to any funded additional term loans. The applicable LIBOR and ABR margins and the commitment fee rate are calculated based upon the first lien net leverage ratio of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, as defined in the Credit Agreement. Until the delivery of the initial financial statements under the Credit Agreement, the revolving loans and term loans bear interest, at the option of the Company, at either (a) ABR plus a margin of 1.25% or (b) LIBOR plus a margin of 2.25% . The additional term loan facility is available for borrowings until November 13, 2020. Each of the revolving loans and the term loans mature on November 13, 2024. The term loans and, once drawn, the additional term loans will amortize at an annual rate equal to approximately 5.00% per annum. Upon the consummation of certain non-ordinary course asset sales, the Company may be required to apply the net cash proceeds thereof to prepay outstanding term loans and additional term loans. The loans under the Credit Agreement may be prepaid without premium or penalty, subject to customary LIBOR “breakage” costs. The Credit Agreement contains certain customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default, and requires the Company and certain of its affiliates obligated under the Credit Agreement to make customary representations and warranties in connection with credit extensions thereunder. In addition, the Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain (a) a ratio of consolidated first lien net debt to consolidated EBITDA no greater than 4.50 to 1.00 and (b) a ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated fixed charges no less than 1.20 to 1.00 , in each case, tested as of the last day of each full fiscal quarter ending after the Closing Date and determined on the basis of the four most recently ended fiscal quarters of the Company for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to the Credit Agreement, subject to customary “equity cure” rights. If an event of default (as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement) occurs, the lenders would be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due under the Credit Agreement, termination of the lenders’ commitments thereunder, foreclosure on collateral, and all other remedial actions available to a secured creditor. The failure to pay certain amounts owing under the Credit Agreement may result in an increase in the interest rate applicable thereto. The Company was in compliance with all debt covenants as of December 31, 2019. The Company incurred $8.8 million of debt issuance costs related to the New Senior Secured Credit Facility, which will be amortized over the life of the Facility. Prior Credit Facility On December 8, 2015, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with a syndicated group of banks. Under this agreement term loan availability was a $50,000,000 , contract draw loan availability was $40,000,000 , and revolving line of credit availability was $35,000,000 . Interest applicable on the term loan, contract draw loan, and revolving line of credit was payable on unpaid balance at the variable per annum LIBOR plus an applicable margin, as defined, ranging from 2.00% to 3.25% depending on the ratio of the Company’s Secured Debt to EBITDA, as defined. On November 15, 2016, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (“Second Amendment”) with most of the same syndicated group of banks which provided for a total loan facility of $210,000,000 and includes term loan availability, contract draw availability, and line of credit availability. On April 10, 2018, the Company entered into a Third Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (“Third Amendment”) with most of the same syndicated group of banks in prior loan agreements, and increased the loan facility from $210,000,000 to $300,000,000 . The Third Amendment extended the agreement maturity date from November 2021 to April 2023. Under the Second Amendment, interest applicable on all facilities was payable monthly on unpaid balances at the variable per annum LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin, as defined, ranging from 1.95% to 3.00% depending on the ratio of the Company’s Secured Debt to EBITDA, as defined. An unused line fee of 0.30% was payable monthly on the difference between the total availability and the average daily balance of the revolving line of credit and the contract loan draw outstanding. Under the Third Amendment, interest on all credit facilities was payable monthly on unpaid balances at the variable per annum LIBOR rate ( 2.51% at December 31, 2018 ) plus an applicable margin, as defined, ranging from 1.70% to 2.50% depending on the ratio of the Company’s Secured Debt to EBITDA, as defined. As of December 31, 2018 , the average interest rate was approximately 4.60% . An unused line fee of 0.25% was payable monthly on the difference between the total availability and the average daily balance of the line of credit and the contract draw loan outstanding. The Third Amendment increased the term loan availability from $90,000,000 to $125,000,000 and required quarterly principal payments of $3,125,000 through March 31, 2020, $3,906,250 through March 31, 2022, $4,687,500 through March 31, 2023, and the remaining balance due upon maturity in April 2023. The Third Amendment increased the contract draw availability from $65,000,000 to $90,000,000 and changed from a borrowing draw loan to a revolving facility whereby the Company could borrow and repay throughout the term of the agreement with no required loan repayments until maturity in April 2023. The Third Amendment increased the maximum line of credit borrowings from $55,000,000 to $85,000,000 subject to a borrowing base which was defined as the sum of 90% of the Company’s vault cash outstanding, as defined; less payables owed to establishment owners, the State of Illinois and the Illinois Gaming Board. Payments could be made on demand at the Company’s election, and were only required if the balance exceeds the lesser of the total line of credit commitment of $85,000,000 or the revolving loan availability. Additionally, the Company had the ability to utilize letters of credit. The credit facilities were collateralized by substantially all assets of the Company and included defined financial covenants related to leverage, fixed charge and minimum EBITDA. The Prior Credit Facility was paid off with the proceeds from the New Senior Secured Credit Facility . In connection with the extinguishment of the Prior Credit Facility, the Company recorded a loss from debt extinguishment of $1.1 million. The principal maturities of long-term debt as of December 31, 2019 are as follows (in thousands): Year ending December 31: 2020 $ 15,000 2021 15,000 2022 15,000 2023 15,000 2024 298,500 Total debt $ 358,500 The estimated fair value of the Company's debt at December 31, 2019 approximated its carrying value as the debt facilities as of such date bore interest based on prevailing variable market rates and as such were categorized as a Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as defined in Note 11. The fair value of the Company’s debt at December 31, 2018 was estimated based on observable inputs such as the change in yield on comparable indices and unobservable inputs such as the enterprise value. The inputs used to determine the fair value were classified as Level 2 and Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Business and Asset Acquisitions	Reverse Recapitalization As discussed in Note 1, on November 20, 2019, Accel Entertainment, Inc., consummated a business combination pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, which has been accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. Pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, TPG Holdings Corp. acquired, directly or indirectly, all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock and preferred stock of Accel Entertainment, Inc. In connection with reverse recapitalization, TPG Pace Holdings Corp. changed its name to Accel Entertainment, Inc. The consideration paid to holders of Accel stock in connection with the reverse recapitalization and subject to the terms and conditions of the Transaction Agreement, consisted of a mix of consideration comprised of cash consideration equal to the number of shares of Accel stock for which such holder of Accel stock made a cash election multiplied by $177 per share (the “Purchase Price”) and share consideration comprised of a number of Class A-1 Shares equal to the number of shares of Accel Stock for which such holder of Accel Stock did not make a cash election multiplied by an exchange ratio calculated by dividing the Purchase Price by $10.30 , which was the closing price of the common stock of TPG Pace Holdings Corp. on November 20, 2019. In addition, each holder of Accel stock that made a cash election with respect to less than 70% of its shares of Accel stock received its pro rata share, with such pro rata share determined with reference to a number of shares equal to 70% of such holder’s shares of Accel Stock less the number of shares of Accel stock with respect to which such holder made a cash election, of 2,444,444 2019 Warrants, subject to the conditions set forth in a warrant agreement and 3,000,000 Class A-2 Shares, subject to the conditions set forth in a restricted stock agreement.

The proceeds from the Investment Private Placement was used to fund a portion of the cash consideration required in the reverse recapitalization . In connection with the reverse recapitalization, Accel repurchased approximately 36,157 shares of its stock from certain employees, directors and officers at a repurchase price of $177 per share in order to facilitate (i) the repayment of existing loans to Accel’s executive officers, (ii) the exercise of vested options and (iii) funding any resulting tax obligations from the exercise of such vested options. In accounting for the reverse recapitalization, the net equity infusion from the reverse recapitalization was $29.3 million as shown in the table below (in thousands): Amount TPG Holdings Corp cash balance, November 19, 2019 $ 429,952 Less redemption of Accel shares prior to reverse recapitalization (413,733 ) Cash balance prior to backstop equity financing 16,219 Plus funds from Investment Private Placement 48,038 Cash balance prior to consummation of the reverse recapitalization 64,257 Less adjustments to equity infusion: Payment for sponsor loan (4,000 ) Transaction costs related to the reverse recapitalization, net of tax (31,005 ) Net equity infusion prior to stock issuance 29,252 Impact of stock issued in reverse recapitalization 10 Net equity infusion from reverse recapitalization 29,262 Less impact from conversion of treasury stock and issuance of warrants (7,415 ) Net impact to additional paid-in-capital from reverse recapitalization $ 21,847 Capitalization Adjustments The table below summarizes the number of shares of Accel issued upon consummation of the reverse recapitalization consisting of (i) the number of shares of Accel stock outstanding immediately before the reverse recapitalization along with the impact of the exchange ratio.

Upon the closing, the Company's Class A-1 Shares and warrants began trading on the New York Stock Exchange. 2019 Business Acquisitions Grand River Jackpot On August 26, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire all issued and outstanding membership interests in Grand River Jackpot, LLC and subsidiaries (“Grand River”), a terminal operator licensed by the State of Illinois Gaming Board. On September 16, 2019, the Company completed its acquisition of Grand River. Grand River had 2,009 VGTs in over 450 licensed establishments. The Company completed this transaction in order to expand its presence within the State of Illinois. The acquisition aggregate purchase consideration transferred totaled $113.7 million, which included: i) a cash payment made at closing of $100.0 million; ii) a subsequent cash payment of approximately $6.6 million for a working capital adjustment and; iii) contingent purchase consideration with an estimated fair value of $7.1 million. The contingent consideration represents two installment payments that are to be paid, up to a maximum amount, as follows: i) $2.5 million within 30 days following the one-year anniversary of the acquisition closing date and; ii) $7.0 million within 30 days following the three-year anniversary of the acquisition closing date. These payments are subject to adjustment based on certain performance measures included within the purchase agreement. The estimated fair value was determined based on the Company’s expected probability of future payment, discounted using Grand River’s weighted average cost of capital. The cash payment made at closing and subsequent working capital adjustment payment were both funded with the Company’s existing credit facilities. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations . The purchase price has been preliminarily allocated to the tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values. The areas of the purchase price that are not yet finalized are primarily related to the valuation of location contracts, property and equipment, contingent consideration, and a final adjustment to working capital. The excess of the purchase price over the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill. The Grand River acquisition resulted in recorded goodwill as a result of a higher consideration multiple paid relative to prior similar acquisitions driven by maturity and quality of the operations and industry, including workforce and corresponding synergies, and is amortizable for income tax purposes. Management plans to integrate the Grand River acquisition into its existing business structure, which is comprised of a single reporting unit.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements ASC Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,", establishes a framework for measuring fair value and the corresponding disclosure requirements around fair value measurements. This topic applies to all financial instruments that are being measured and reported on a fair value basis. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the various methods including market, income and cost approaches are used. Based on these approaches, certain assumptions are utilized that the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable inputs. Valuation techniques are utilized that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Based on the observability of the inputs used in the valuation techniques, it is required to provide information according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories: Level 1 : Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in active exchange markets, such as the New York Stock Exchange. Level 1 also includes U.S. Treasury and federal agency securities and federal agency mortgage-backed securities, which are traded by dealers or brokers in active markets. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 : Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer or broker markets. Valuations are obtained from third-party pricing services for identical or similar assets or liabilities. Level 3 : Valuations for assets and liabilities that are derived from other valuation methodologies, including option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques, and not based on market exchange, dealer, or broker traded transactions. Level 3 valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections in determining the fair value assigned to such assets or liabilities. Convertible promissory notes In valuing it's convertible promissory notes, the Company utilized a binomial lattice model in which a convertible instrument is split into two separate components: a cash-only (debt) component and an equity component. The binomial lattice trees are constructed using a methodology that assigns up and downward movement factors and probabilities based on rates of return, volatility, and time. It allows for the optional conversion features of the convertible promissory notes to be captured by determining whether conversion or continuing to hold is the most economically advantageous to the holder. Upon conversion, future values in the equity component are subject to only the risk-free rate, while the cash-only component associated with continuing to hold the debt instrument is subject to the selected risk-adjusted discount rate. Solving backwards through the trees associated with the equity component and the trees associated with the debt component yields an aggregate discounted value for each. The sum of these values yields the indicated fair value of the convertible promissory notes. The discount rate is the risk-adjusted discount rate that is implied by the rate that allows the discounted cash flows with all terms and conditions modeled to equal the total cash consideration. As such, after modeling the features of convertible promissory notes as of the issuance date using the lattice model framework outlined above, the Company solved for the discount rate that resulted in a value for the note equal to the total cash consideration. The valuation of the Company's convertible promissory notes is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement as the significant inputs are unobservable and require significant judgment or estimation. Contingent consideration The following tables summarize the Company’s liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands): Fair Value Measurement at Reporting Date Using December 31, 2019 Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Liabilities: Contingent consideration $ 17,327 $ — $ — $ 17,327 Fair Value Measurement at Reporting Date Using December 31, 2018 Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Liabilities: Contingent consideration $ 6,782 $ — $ — $ 6,782 The Company uses a discounted cash flow analysis to determine the value of contingent consideration upon acquisition and updates this estimate on a recurring basis. The significant assumptions in the Company's cash flow analysis includes the probability adjusted projected revenues after state taxes, a discount rate as applicable to each acquisition, and the estimated number of locations that “go live” with the Company during the contingent consideration period. A hypothetical 1% increase in the applicable discount rate would decrease other expenses, net by approximately $0.2 million while a hypothetical 1% decrease in the applicable discount rate would increase other expenses, net by approximately $0.2 million. The following table provides a roll-forward of the fair value of recurring Level 3 fair value measurements for the years ended December 31, 2019 , 2018 and 2017 (in thousands): 2019 2018 2017 Liabilities: Contingent consideration: Beginning of year balance $ 6,782 $ 785 $ 190 Issuance of contingent consideration in connection with acquisitions 7,216 5,350 595 Payment of contingent consideration (1,658 ) (387 ) — Additional accruals included in earnings 4,987 1,034 — Ending balance $ 17,327 $ 6,782 $ 785 Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities are classified within other expenses, net on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Stockholders' Equity	Stockholders’ Equity As discussed in Notes 1 and 3, on November 20, 2019, the Company, consummated a reverse recapitalization pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, which has been accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. Pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation as amended on November 20, 2019 and as a result of the reverse recapitalization, the Company has retrospectively adjusted the shares issued and outstanding prior to November 20, 2019 to give effect to the exchange ratio used to determine the number of Class A-1 shares of common stock into which they were converted . P ursuant to the terms of the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Company authorized and has available for issuance the following shares and classes of capital stock, each with a par value of $0.0001 per share: i) 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock; ii) 250,000,000 shares of Class A-1 Common Stock, ii) 10,000,000 shares of Class A-2 Common Stock. Class A-1 Common Stock The holders of the Class A-1 Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share. The holders of Class A-1 Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends or other distributions when and if declared from time to time and share equally on a per share basis in such dividends and distributions subject to such rights of the holders of preferred stock. Class A-2 Common Stock The holders of the Class A-2 Common Stock do not have voting rights and are not entitled to receive or participate in any dividends or distributions when and if declared from time to time. As discussed in Note 3, 5,000,000 shares of Class A-2 Common Stock were issued with other consideration prior to the reverse recapitalization , subject to the conditions set forth in a restricted stock agreement, which sets forth the terms upon which the Class A-2 Shares will be exchanged for an equal number of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Class A-1 Shares. The exchange of Class A-2 Shares for Class A-1 Shares will be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Restricted Stock Agreement, with such exchanges occurring in three separate tranches upon the satisfaction of the following triggers: • Tranche I, equal to 1,666,666 Class A-2 Shares, will be exchanged for Class A-1 Shares if either (i) the EBITDA for the last twelve months (“ LTM EBITDA ”) of the Company (as determined pursuant to the Restricted Stock Agreement) as of December 31, 2021, March 31, 2022 or June 30, 2022 equals or exceeds $132 million or (ii) the closing sale price of Class A-1 Shares on the New York Stock Exchange (“ NYSE ”) equals or exceeds $12.00 for at least twenty trading days in any consecutive thirty trading day period; • Tranche II, equal to 1,666,667 Class A-2 Shares, will be exchanged for Class A-1 Shares if either (i) the LTM EBITDA of the Company (as determined pursuant to the Restricted Stock Agreement) as of December 31, 2022, March 31, 2023 or June 30, 2023 equals or exceeds $152 million or (ii) the closing sale price of Class A-1 Shares on the NYSE equals or exceeds $14.00 for at least twenty trading days in any consecutive thirty trading day period; and • Tranche III, equal to 1,666,667 Class A-2 Shares, will be exchanged for Class A-1 Shares if either (i) the LTM EBITDA of the Company (as determined pursuant to the Restricted Stock Agreement) as of December 31, 2023, March 31, 2024 or June 30, 2024 equals or exceeds $172 million or (ii) the closing sale price of Class A-1 Shares on the NYSE equals or exceeds $16.00 for at least twenty trading days in any consecutive thirty trading day period. The LTM EBITDA thresholds will be reasonably adjusted by the independent directors of the board of the Company (the “ Board ”) from time to time to take into account the anticipated effect of any acquisitions or dispositions that exceed certain thresholds and are otherwise materially different from certain forecasts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Class A-2 Shares, if not previously exchanged for Class A-1 Shares pursuant to the triggers described above, will be exchanged for an equal number of Class A-1 Shares immediately prior to the consummation of a transaction or series of related transactions that would result in a third party or group (as defined in or under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “ Exchange Act ”)) becoming the beneficial owner of, directly or indirectly, more than fifty percent of the total voting power of the equity securities of the Company, or more than fifty percent of the consolidated net revenues, net income or total assets (including equity securities of its subsidiaries) of the Company, provided that the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the aforementioned triggers cannot be determined at such time. The Restricted Stock Agreement further provides that holders of Class A-2 Shares are not required to exchange such shares for Class A-1 Shares if, (x) prior to giving effect to exchanges pursuant to the triggers described above, such holder beneficially owns less than 4.99% of the issued and outstanding Class A-1 Shares, and (y) after giving effect to the exchanges pursuant to the triggers described above, such holder would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the issued and outstanding Class A-1 Shares. However, notwithstanding the limitation described in the previous sentence, if and when a holder of Class A-2 Shares has obtained all required gaming approvals from the applicable gaming authorities permitting such holder to beneficially own Class A-1 Shares in excess of 4.99% , then the Class A-2 Shares held by such holder which are subject to exchange shall immediately be exchanged for Class A-1 Shares without regard to the limitation. On January 14, 2020, the market condition for the conversion of Tranche I was satisfied. Accordingly, 1,666,666 Class A-2 shares were converted into Class A-1 shares.

Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based Compensation	12 Months Ended

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
Stock-based Compensation	Stock-based Compensation The Company grants various types of stock-based awards including stock options. Stock compensation awards granted are valued on the date of grant and are expensed over the required service period. Grant of Options The Company previously adopted the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan of Accel Entertainment, Inc., and in 2016 the Company adopted the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan of Accel Entertainment, Inc., (collectively, “the Plans”). Under the Plans, the aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be issued or transferred pursuant to options or restricted stock awards under the Plans will not exceed ten percent of the outstanding shares of the Company. Options generally vest over a three to five-year period. The exercise price of stock options shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value per share of common stock on the grant date. The term of the options are a maximum of 10 years from the grant date. The Company uses the Black-Scholes formula to estimate the fair value of its share-based payments. The volatility assumption used in the Black-Scholes formula is based on the volatility of comparable public companies. The Company determined the share price at grant date used in the Black-Scholes formula based on an internal valuation model. The fair value assigned to each option is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes-based option valuation model. The expected term of each option granted represents the period of time that each option granted is expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the unit is based on U.S. Treasury yields in effect at the time of grant. The following assumptions were used in the option valuation model for options granted during the years ended December 31, : 2019 * 2018 2017 Expected approximate volatility None 35% 35% Expected dividends None None None Expected term (in years) None 3-5 5 Risk-free rate None 2.41% - 2.62% 1.81% - 2.18% Stock price None $4 - $5 $3 - $4 * there were no options granted in 2019 A summary of the options granted and the range in vesting periods based on specific provisions within the option agreements during the years ended December 31, are as follows: 2019 2018 2017 Options granted — 108,288 612,771 Vesting period (in years) — 3 - 5 5 The following table sets forth of the activities of the Company’s vested stock options for the years ended December 31, 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , as restated to give effect for the reverse recapitalization discussed in Note 3.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes Prior to the consummation of the reverse recapitalization, TPG Pace Holding Corp. was registered in the Cayman Islands. On November 20, 2019 TPG Pace Holding Corp. effected a deregistration as an exempted company in the Cayman Islands under the Cayman Islands Companies Law (2018 Revision), and a domestication as a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware under Section 388 of the DGCL, pursuant to which the Company's jurisdiction of incorporation will be changed from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware. This domestication was analyzed under the applicable tax laws and it was determined that there were no significant tax implications associated with the domestication. The Company recognized income tax expense of $5.2 million, $4.4 million and $1.8 million during the years ended December 31, 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively, which consists of the following (in thousands): 2019 2018 2017 Current provision Federal $ (85 ) $ (100 ) $ 173 State 43 222 62 Total current provision (42 ) 122 235 Deferred provision Federal 3,740 3,256 955 State 1,501 1,044 564 Total deferred provision 5,241 4,300 1,519 Total income tax expense $ 5,199 $ 4,422 $ 1,754 A reconciliation of the “expected” income taxes computed by applying the federal statutory income tax rate to the total expense is as follows (in thousands): 2019 2018 2017 Computed “expected” tax (benefit) expense $ (139 ) $ 3,197 $ 3,422 Increase (decrease) in income taxes resulting from: State income taxes 1,535 1,219 2 Return-to-provision 49 — — Permanent items 4,054 (264 ) 190 Enacted rate change — — (1,755 ) Other (300 ) 270 (105 ) Total income tax expense $ 5,199 $ 4,422 $ 1,754 On December 22, 2017, the President of the United States signed into law the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act tax reform legislation. This legislation makes significant changes in U.S. tax law including reduction in the corporate tax rates, changes to net operating loss carryforwards and carrybacks, and a repeal of the corporate alternative minimum tax. The legislation reduced the U.S. corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% . As a result of the enacted law, the Company revalued deferred tax assets and liabilities at the new rate. This revaluation resulted in a benefit of $1.8 million to 2017 income tax expense in continuing operations and a corresponding reduction in the deferred tax liability. The other provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. The tax effects of temporary differences that gave rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and liabilities were as follows at December 31, 2019 and 2018 (in thousands): 2019 2018 Deferred tax assets: Net operating loss carryforwards $ 6,633 $ 4,192 Location contracts acquired 4,699 1,887 Other 260 1,032 11,592 7,111 Deferred tax liabilities: Property and equipment 24,568 16,006 $ (12,976 ) $ (8,895 ) The Company assesses the realizability of the deferred tax assets at each balance sheet date based on actual and forecasted operating results in order to determine the proper amount, if any, required for a valuation allowance. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. The Company considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carryback and carryforward periods), projected future taxable income, and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment. As of December 31, 2019 , the Company is in a net deferred tax liability position and is in a three-year cumulative income position. As such, it is the Company's belief that it is more likely than not that its deferred tax assets will be realized. As of December 31, 2019 , and 2018 , the Company has not recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The following table summarizes carryforwards of net operating losses as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 (in thousands): 2019 2018 Amount Expiration Amount Expiration Federal net operating losses $ 27,873 2033 - 2039 $ 17,942 2031 - 2038 State net operating losses 14,454 2024 - 2031 5,655 2023 - 2030 The Company also has credit carryforwards of approximately $0.5 million and $0.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 , which are expected to be fully utilized in 2021.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies The Company leases office space under agreements expiring at various dates from May 2019 through December 2021. Total rent expense under these leases approximated $0.3 million, $0.3 million and $0.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. The Company recognizes rent expense on a straight-line basis over the life of the leases. Rent expense is recorded in general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations . Future minimum payments under these leases are as foll ows (in thousands): Years ending December 31: 2020 $ 273 2021 142 2022 104 2023 65 2024 — Total $ 584 The Company has certain earnouts in periods for future location performance related to certain business acquisitions (see discussion in Note 10). The Company has certain employment agreements that call for salaries and potential severance upon termination. Lawsuits and claims are filed against the Company from time to time in the ordinary course of business, including related to employment of professional and non-compete clauses and agreements. Other than settled matters explained as follows, these actions are in various stages, and no judgments or decisions have been rendered. Management, after reviewing matters with legal counsel, believes that the outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Accel has been involved in a series of related litigated matters stemming from claims that Accel wrongly contracted with 10 different licensed establishments (the “Defendant Establishments”) in 2012 in violation of the contractual rights held by J&J Ventures Gaming, LLC (“J&J”), as further described below. On August 21, 2012, one of the Company’s operating subsidiaries entered into certain agreements with Jason Rowell (“Rowell”), a member of Action Gaming LLC (“Action Gaming”), which was an unlicensed terminal operator that had exclusive rights to place and operate VGTs within a number of establishments, including the Defendant Establishments. Under agreements with Rowell, the Company agreed to pay him for each licensed establishment which decided to enter into exclusive location agreements with the Company. In late August and early September 2012, each of the Defendant Establishments signed separate location agreements with the Company, purporting to grant it the exclusive right to operate VGTs in those establishments. Separately, on August 24, 2012, Action Gaming sold and assigned its rights to all its location agreements to J&J, including its exclusive rights with the Defendant Establishments (the “J&J Assigned Agreements”). At the time of the assignment of such rights to J&J, the Defendant Establishments were not yet licensed by the Illinois Gaming Board (“IGB”). Action Gaming, J&J, and other parties, collectively, the Plaintiffs, filed a complaint against the Company, Rowell, and other parties in the Circuit Court of Cook County (the “Circuit Court”), on August 31, 2012, as amended on November 1, 2012, December 19, 2012, and October 3, 2013, alleging, among other things, that the Company aided and abetted Rowell in breaches of his fiduciary duties and contractual obligations with Action Gaming and tortiously interfered with Action Gaming’s contracts with Rowell and agreements assigned to J&J. The complaint seeks damages and injunctive and equitable relief. On January 24, 2018, the Company filed a motion to dismiss for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, as further described below. On May 14, 2018, the Circuit Court denied the Company’s motion to dismiss and granted a stay to the case, pending a ruling from the IGB on the validity of the J&J Assigned Agreements. From 2013 to 2015, the Plaintiffs filed additional claims, including J&J Ventures Gaming, LLC et al. v. Wild, Inc. (“Wild”), in various circuit courts seeking declaratory judgements with a number of establishments, including each of the Defendant Establishments, requesting declarations that, among other things, J&J held the exclusive right to operate VGTs at each of the Defendant Establishments as a result of the J&J Assigned Agreements. The Company was granted leave to intervene in all of the declaratory judgments. The circuit courts found that the J&J Assigned Agreements were valid because each of the underlying location agreements were between an unlicensed establishment and an unlicensed terminal operator, and therefore did not constitute use agreements that were otherwise precluded from assignment under the IGB’s regulations. Upon the Company’s appeal, the Illinois Appellate Court, Fifth District (the “District Court”), vacated the circuit courts’ judgments and dismissed the appeals, holding that the IGB had exclusive jurisdiction over the matter that formed the basis of the parties’ claims, and declined to consider the merits of the parties’ disputes. On September 22, 2016, and after the IGB intervened, the Supreme Court of Illinois issued a judgment in Wild , affirming the District Court’s decision vacating the circuit courts’ judgments for lack of subject matter jurisdiction and dismissing the appeals, determining that the IGB has exclusive jurisdiction to decide the validity and enforceability of VGT use agreements. Between May 2017 and September 2017, both the Company and J&J filed petitions with the IGB seeking adjudication of the rights of the parties and the validity of the use agreements. Those petitions have been fully briefed and remain pending. There is no indication as to when the IGB will rule on the petitions. The Company does not have a present estimate regarding the potential damages, if any, that could potentially be awarded in this litigation and, accordingly, have established no reserves relating to such matters. There are also petitions pending with the IGB which could lead to the Company obtaining new locations. On October 7, 2019, the Company filed a lawsuit in the Circuit Court of Cook County against Jason Rowell and other parties related to Mr. Rowell’s breaches of his non-compete agreement with the Company. The Company alleged that Mr. Rowell and a competitor were working together to interfere with the Company’s customer relationships. That lawsuit, which seeks equitable relief and legal damages, has not yet been served. On November 7, 2019, Mr. Rowell filed a lawsuit in the Circuit Court of Cook County against the Company alleging that he had not received certain equity interests in the Company to which he was allegedly entitled under his agreement. The Company intends to defend itself against the allegations. The Company does not have a present estimate regarding the potential damages, nor does it believe any payment of damages is probable, and, accordingly, has established no reserves relating to these matters. During 2017 , the Company entered into a settlement agreement with Illinois Gold Rush, Inc. (“Illinois Gold Rush”), related to a 2013 business acquisition completed by the Company with Illinois Gold Rush. As a result of the settlement, the Company paid $3.5 million, issued 32,745 additional shares of Class A Common Stock, acquired 4 locations and the Company issued a stockholder note receivable of $3.3 million based on the value of the underlying collateral. During the year ended December 31, 2018 the note receivable matured, and was settled and 46,667 shares of Class A Common Stock were placed into treasury. As a result of the settlement agreement the Company decreased its location contract asset and Class A Common Stock $1.0 million during 2017 for the fair value of the shares outstanding prior to the settlement agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2018 , the Company entered into a settlement agreement regarding breach of contract with Family Amusements (see discussion in Note 10). Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2018 , the Company entered into settlement agreements related to breach of contract and employment matters for a total of $0.4 million, which was recorded within general and administrative expenses on the consolidated income statement. On July 2, 2019, Illinois Gaming Investors, LLC filed a lawsuit against the Company. The lawsuit alleges that a current employee of the Company violated his non-competition agreement with Illinois Gaming Investors, LLC, and together with the Company, wrongfully solicited prohibited licensed video gaming locations. The lawsuit on its face seeks damages of $10,000,000 . The parties are engaging in discovery. The Company is in the process of defending this lawsuit, and has not accrued any amounts as losses related to this suit are not probable or reasonably estimable. On July 16, 2019, Clairvest commenced litigation with respect to the June 13, 2019 transaction agreement between TPG Pace Holdings Corp. and the Company. On August 20, 2019, Clairvest filed a request for voluntary dismissal related to such litigation.

For the years ending December 31, 2019 , 2018 , and 2017 , Accel paid Much Shelist $0.6 million, $0.3 million, and $0.6 million, respectively. These payments were included in general and administrative expenses within the consolidated statements of operations , however, $0.2 million of the amounts paid in the fourth quarter of 2019 were recorded to additional paid-in capital as these costs were determined to be direct and incremental for the reverse recapitalization discussed in Note 3. The Raine Group, which employs a Director of the Company, Gordon Rubenstein, provided investment banking services and assisted the Company in the negotiations and consummation of the reverse recapitalization. The Company paid $11 million to the Raine Group in 2019. Throughout the third quarter of 2019, one of the Company’s Class A Common Stockholders made payments on behalf of the Company directly to the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for services rendered to the Company during the same period totaling $2.9 million. Such amounts are included as a component of other expenses, net in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and contributed capital in the consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings Per Share	Earnings Per Share Pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation as amended on November 20, 2019 and as a result of the reverse recapitalization, the Company has retrospectively adjusted the weighted average shares outstanding prior to November 20, 2019 to give effect to the exchange ratio used to determine the number of Class A-1 shares of common stock into which they were converted. Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of Class A-1 shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed based on the weighted average number of shares plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options, stockholder notes receivable, warrants and Class A-2 common stock for Class A-1 common stock. The components of basic and diluted EPS were as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts): 2019 2018 2017 Net (loss) income $ (5,864 ) $ 10,803 $ 8,311 Basic weighted average outstanding shares of common stock 61,850 57,621 56,321 Dilutive effect of stock-based awards for common stock — 1,605 666 Dilutive effect of stockholder notes receivable for common stock — 407 53 Dilutive effect of warrants for common stock — 2,549 2,368 Diluted weighted average outstanding shares of common stock 61,850 62,182 59,408 Earnings (loss) per share: Basic $ (0.09 ) $ 0.19 $ 0.15 Diluted $ (0.09 ) $ 0.17 $ 0.14 Since the Company was in a net loss position for the year ended December 31, 2019 , there is no difference between basic and dilutive weighted average common stock outstanding. Anti-dilutive stock-based awards, Class A-2 shares, and warrants excluded from the calculations of diluted EPS were 28,561,724 , 439,167 , and 629,960 for the years ended December 31, 2019 , 2018 and 2017

Summary of Significant Accoun_2

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	12 Months Ended
	Dec. 31, 2019
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of presentation and preparation	Basis of presentation and preparation : The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes were prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and of its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Adopted accounting pronouncements / Recent accounting pronouncements	Adopted accounting pronouncements : In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ ASU ”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , which amends the existing revenue recognition and creates a new topic for Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The guidance provides that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. This guidance also substantially revises required interim and annual disclosures. The Company, as an Emerging Growth Company ("EGC"), elected to use the non-public effective date and adopted the standard in the fourth quarter of 2019 for the annual period ended December 31, 2019 . The Company also elected the modified retrospective adoption approach and applied the standard to all contracts open as of January 1, 2019. The Company's quarterly financial statement disclosure for the first nine months of 2019 reflect the previous accounting standard of FASB ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, and will not be restated for the adoption of Topic 606. The cumulative impact of the new revenue standard for fiscal year 2019 was recorded in the fourth quarter and reflects the adjustment as if the Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2019. The timing and amount of revenue recognized by the Company did not change upon the adoption of the new standard, however the Company's accounting for route acquisition costs was impacted. ASC 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs - Contracts With Customers (“ASC 340-40”), issued in conjunction with ASU 2014-09, provides updated guidance around accounting for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer and for the costs incurred to fulfill a contract with a customer. ASC 340-40 states that an entity should amortize contract cost assets “on a systemic basis that is consistent with the transfer to the customer of the good or services to which the asset relates”, which typically corresponds to the period in which revenue will be recognized. The Company chose straight-line amortization of the contracts as it felt that best depicted when revenue would be recognized and when customers are visiting the gaming establishments. When determining the appropriate amortization period under ASC 340-40, the Company evaluated the impact of any renewal clauses that are likely to be exercised. The Company focused on whether commissions paid for renewals were commensurate with commissions paid on the original contract. The Company determined the renewal commissions were not commensurate and the amortization period should include expected renewals. As such, the period over which route and customer acquisition costs are amortized was extended to include expected renewals which resulted in an increase to the average life to 12.4 years . The Company recorded a cumulative effect adjustment, net of taxes, to accumulated deficit of $2.6 million relating to the decreased in accumulated amortization of route acquisition costs. In addition, the Company's current year amortization expense decreased by $1.1 million. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which provides guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. ASU No. 2017-01 requires entities to use a screen test to determine when an integrated set of assets and activities is not a business or if the integrated set of assets and activities needs to be further evaluated against the framework. The Company adopted ASU No. 2017-01 on January 1, 2019. Recent accounting pronouncements : In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) . The guidance in this ASU supersedes the leasing guidance in Topic 840, Leases . In July 2018, the FASB also issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements , which provides an optional transition method allowing the standard to be applied at the adoption date. Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within that fiscal year, unless the Company disqualifies as an emerging growth company, in which case earlier adoption may be required . A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company is assessing impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which intends to simplify the guidance by removing certain exceptions to the general principles and clarifying or amending existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Although the Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2019-12, the Company does not expect it to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Use of estimates	Use of estimates : The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and (iii) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates used by the Company include, among other things, the useful lives for depreciable and amortizable assets, income tax provisions, the evaluation of the future realization of deferred tax assets, projected cash flows in assessing the initial valuation of intangible assets in conjunction with business acquisitions, the initial selection of useful lives for depreciable and amortizable assets in conjunction with business acquisitions, contingencies, and the expected term of share-based compensation awards, stock price volatility and estimated stock prices prior to the reverse recapitalization discussed in Note 3 when computing share-based compensation expense. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Segment information	Segment information : The Company operates as a single operating segment. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the chief executive officer, who has ultimate responsibility for the operating performance of the Company and the allocation of resources. The CODM assesses the Company’s performance and allocates resources based on consolidated results, and this is the only discrete financial information that is regularly reviewed by the CODM.
Cash	Cash : Cash includes bank deposit accounts; uncollected cash in the Company’s video gaming terminals, ATMs, and redemption terminals; and cash in Company vaults. The Company’s policy is to limit the amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution. The Company maintains its cash in accounts which may at times exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.
Convertible notes	Convertible notes: At acquisition, an entity shall classify debt securities as trading, available-for-sale, or held-to-maturity. While the Company has no the intention of selling the notes, it cannot classify them as held-to-maturity due to the conversion feature. Therefore, the Company has classified its investment in convertible notes as available for sale.
Property and equipment	Property and equipment : Property and equipment are stated at cost or fair value at the date of acquisition. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Major additions, replacements and improvements are capitalized. Spare parts are included in other current assets when acquired and are expensed when used to repair equipment. Depreciation has been computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Years Video game terminals and equipment 7 Amusement and other equipment 7 Office equipment and furniture 7 Computer equipment and software 3-5 Leasehold improvements 5 Vehicles 5 Buildings and improvements 15-29 Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful life or the lease. Development costs directly associated with the acquisition, development and construction of a project are capitalized as a cost of the project during the periods in which activities necessary to prepare the property for its intended use are in progress. Interest costs associated with major construction projects are capitalized as part of the cost of the constructed assets. When no debt is incurred specifically for a project, interest is capitalized on amounts expended for the project using the weighted-average cost of borrowing. Capitalization of interest ceases when the project (or discernible portions of the project) is substantially complete. If substantially all of the construction activities of a project are suspended, capitalization of interest will cease until such activities are resumed.
Concentration of credit risk	Concentration of credit risk : The Company’s operations are centralized primarily in the State of Illinois. Should there be favorable or unfavorable changes to the Illinois Gaming Act there may be an impact on the Company’s results of operations. The Company has high concentrations of locations within certain municipalities in Illinois which could impact the Company if these municipalities change their gaming laws.
Fair value of financial instruments	Fair value of financial instruments : The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, convertibles notes, accounts payable, contingent consideration, and bank indebtedness. The carrying amount of cash, accounts payable and short-term borrowings approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Company estimates the fair value of its convertible notes using a binomial lattice model in which a convertible instrument is split into two separate components: a cash-only (debt) component and an equity component. The Company estimates the fair value of its debt using level two and level three inputs by discounting the future cash flows using current interest rates at which it could obtain similar borrowings in consideration of the estimated enterprise value of the Company. Contingent consideration, which is recorded within consideration payable on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, is measured at fair value on a recurring basis based on Level 3 inputs. The fair value recorded at December 31, 2019 and 2018 was determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. Refer to consideration payable below for disclosure of unobservable Level 3 inputs used.
Revenue recognition / Route and customer acquisition costs	Revenue recognition : The Company generates revenues in the State of Illinois from the following types of services: Video gaming terminals, Amusements and ATMs. Revenue is disaggregated by type of revenue and is presented on the face of the consolidated statements of operations. Video gaming terminal revenue is the net cash from gaming activities, which is the difference between gaming wins and losses. Video gaming terminal revenue includes the amounts earned by the licensed video gaming locations and is recognized at the time of gaming play. Additionally, taxes and administrative expenses due to the State of Illinois are recorded as video gaming terminal revenue and video gaming expenses. Amusement revenue represents amounts collected from machines (e.g. dart boards, digital jukeboxes, pool tables, etc.) operated at various locations and is recognized at the time the machine is used. ATM fees and other revenue represents fees charged for the withdrawal of funds from the Company’s redemption terminals and stand-alone ATM machines and is recognized at the time of the transaction. The Company determined that in a gaming environment, whenever a customer’s money has been accepted by a machine, the Company has an obligation (an implied contract) to provide the customer access to the game and honor the outcome of the game (in the case of video gaming terminals). The Company determined that the implied contract is entered into between the Company and customers satisfies the requirements of a contract under the new revenue standard, as (i) the contract is a legally enforceable contract with the customer, (ii) the arrangement identifies the rights of the parties, (iii) the contract has commercial substance, and (iv) the cash is received upfront from the customer so its collectability is probable. The gaming service is a single performance obligation in each implied contract with the customer. The Company applies the portfolio approach of all wins and losses by Video Gaming Terminals ("VGTs") daily to determine the total transaction price of the portfolio of implied contracts. The Company recognizes revenue when the single performance obligation is satisfied, which is at the completion of each game. Route and customer acquisition costs : The Company’s route and customer acquisition costs consist of fees paid at the inception of contracts entered into with third parties and licensed video gaming establishments throughout the State of Illinois which allow the Company to install and operate video gaming terminals. The route and customer acquisition costs and route and customer acquisition costs payable are recorded at the net present value of the future payments using a discount rate equal to the Company’s incremental borrowing rate associated with its long-term debt. Route and customer acquisition costs are amortized on a straight-line basis beginning on the date the location goes live and amortized over the life of the contract, which upon adoption of Topic 606, includes expected renewals. The Company records the accretion of interest on route and customer acquisitions costs payable in the consolidated statements of operations as a component of interest expense. For locations that close prior to the end of the contractual term, the Company writes-off the net book value of the route and customer acquisition cost and route and customer acquisition cost payable and records a gain or loss in the consolidated statements of operations as a component of other expenses, net. The Company’s route and customer acquisition costs also consists of prepaid commission costs to our internal sales force of employees. The commissions paid to internal sales employees are subsequently expensed once the respective licensed video gaming location goes live and the commission is earned by the employee.
Business acquisitions / Consideration payable / Contingent stock consideration	Consideration payable : Consideration payable consists of amounts payable related to certain business acquisitions as well as contingent consideration for future location performance related to certain business acquisitions (see Note 10). Consideration payable, exclusive of contingent consideration, is discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate associated with its long-term debt. The contingent consideration is measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The changes in the fair value of contingent consideration are recognized within the Company’s consolidated statements of operations as other expenses, net. Contingent stock consideration : Contingent stock, which is provided as consideration in business acquisitions, is valued based on the fair value of stock issued. The contingent stock consideration is discounted using the Company’s weighted average cost of capital and the accretion of interest is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as a component of interest expense. Business acquisitions : The Company evaluates the inputs, processes and outputs of each business acquisition to determine if the transaction is a business combination or asset acquisition. If an acquisition qualifies as a business combination, the related transaction costs are recorded as an expense in the consolidated statements of operations . If an acquisition qualifies as an asset acquisition, the related transaction costs are generally capitalized and amortized over the useful life of the acquired assets. The Company accounts for acquisitions using the acquisition method and records the cost of the businesses acquired among tangible and recognized intangible assets and liabilities based upon their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Recognized intangibles primarily include the value of location contracts. The Company estimates the fair value of the business acquired using a combination of the cost and income approaches, depending on the specific assets or liabilities acquired. The Company estimates the value of property and equipment and other current assets and liabilities acquired based on their cost, which approximates fair value at acquisition.
Location contracts acquired	Location contracts acquired : Location contracts acquired are accounted for as intangible assets and consist of expected cash flows to be generated from location contracts acquired through business and asset acquisitions. Location contracts acquired are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected useful life of 10 years .
Goodwill	Goodwill: Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price and the fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible net assets acquired when accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Goodwill is not amortized, but reviewed for impairment annually, as of October 1st, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the goodwill may not be recoverable. The Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, the Company would record an impairment loss equal to the difference.
Impairment of long-lived assets	Impairment of long-lived assets : Long-lived assets, which includes property and equipment, net and other assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset or asset group may not be recoverable. Impairment of the assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount of which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. There were no indicators of impairment of long-lived assets in 2019 , 2018 , or 2017 .
Stock-based compensation	Stock-based compensation : The Company grants common stock options to certain employees and officers. Stock option compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as general and administrative expense over the employee’s requisite service period.
Income taxes	Income taxes : The Company is organized as a C-corporation and is taxable at the federal and state level. Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the book basis of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of the deferred tax asset, will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in the tax laws and rates as of the date of enactment. The Company follows ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes , for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The consolidated financial statements reflect expected future tax consequences of uncertain tax positions presuming the taxing authorities’ full knowledge of the position and all relevant facts. The Company files tax returns in all appropriate jurisdictions, which includes a federal tax return and three state retur ns. Open tax years for the federal and state returns are 2016 to 2018, which statutes expire in 2020 to 2022, respectively. When and if applicable, potential interest and penalty costs are accrued as incurred with expenses recognized in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
Comprehensive income (loss)	Comprehensive income (loss) : Comprehensive income (loss) is a measure of net income (loss) and all other changes in equity that result from transactions other than transactions with stockholders. Management has determined that net income (loss) is the Company’s only component of comprehensive income (loss). Accordingly, there is no difference between net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).
Earnings (loss) per share	Earnings (loss) per share : The Company determines earnings per share in accordance with the authoritative guidance in ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share . The Company computes basic earnings per share by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the applicable period. Diluted earnings per share are computed in the same manner as basic earnings per share, except that the number of shares is increased to assume exercise of potentially dilutive stock options using the treasury stock method, unless the effect of such increase would be anti-dilutive. Under the treasury stock method, the amount the employee
Debt issuance costs	Debt issuance costs : Debt issuance costs are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method, over the contractual terms of the related loans and are presented as an offset to the related loans.
Reverse recapitalization expenses	Reverse recapitalization expenses. Legal fees and other costs that were determined to be direct and incremental to the reverse recapitalization were recorded to equity as additional paid-in capital. Other fees associated with the reverse recapitalization that were not direct and incremental were recorded to other expenses, net on the consolidated statements of operations.
Advertising costs	Advertising costs : Advertising costs are primarily comprised of marketing expenses, which are recorded within general and administrative expense within the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Advertising costs were $4.7 million, $3.0 million, and $2.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2019 , 2018 , and 2017 , respectively.
