Ohio dips; Bally’s unplugged; Macao booms
Here’s one for those of you who believe gambling is facing a recession: Revenue in Ohio fell 2% last month (yes, it took the Buckeye State until February to report December’s numbers). The haul was $193 million, which was still … Continue reading

Illinois, Ohio still firm; Daffy bill in N.Y.; Raiders collapse
November was good for casinos in Ohio and Illinois, both of which posted strong numbers, modestly ahead of last year but—in Ohio’s case—still high heavens above 2019. Fresh off its October dethroning of MGM Northfield Park, rival Hollywood Columbus slipped … Continue reading

Bread and circuses
Inflation or no, there is one quantifiable, incontestable fact about the American consumer. He or she is spending more—way more—on gambling than before Covid-19 and more than last year, when they had stimulus money to burn. So if there are … Continue reading

Gaming levels off at high altitude; More Chicago shenanigans
Casino receipts are in for a quartet of states and they tell a similar tale: That gamblers are reining in their 2022 spending … but are still wagering (and losing) way more than three years ago. Hardly a picture of … Continue reading

Missouri up, Ohio down; Wynn hits records; Station flexes
After a somnolent Tuesday, all heck has erupted in the gaming universe and we’ll try to cram at least some of it into today’s dispatch. Gaming revenues continue to flicker here and there, while remaining high heavens above 2019’s outstanding … Continue reading

New look at Bally’s; Ohio hits a speed bump
Our East Coast correspondent visited Bally’s Atlantic City to check out its revisions and we’ll let his photos tell the story:
Wynn treads water, IGT overachieves, Ohio and Missouri flatten
