A recent report revealed that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.americangaming.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/CGRT_Q3_Report.pdf\">US casinos have already surpassed a new record<\/a> when it comes to annual revenues. October saw the momentum of the industry continue and while 2020 was a low year, 2021 has risen up to be a record-setting time for land-based casinos. <\/p>\n<h2 id=\"details-of-the-report\">Details of the Report<\/h2>\n<p>Revenues from traditional casino gaming, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casinousa.com\/online-casino-real-money\">online gaming<\/a> and sports betting came in at $4.75 billion in October. This was the second-highest monthly total for the US period and was an increase of more than 30% when compared to the same month in 2019, pre-COVID-19. When compared to September, the total was 4.8% better. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"780\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casinousa.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/us-casinos-october-2021-gaming-revenue.jpg\" alt=\"US Casino October 2021 Gaming Revenue\" title=\"US Casino October 2021 Gaming Revenue\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2355\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.casinousa.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/us-casinos-october-2021-gaming-revenue.jpg 780w, https:\/\/www.casinousa.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/us-casinos-october-2021-gaming-revenue-768x394.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So far, the commercial gaming industry has hit the $4 billion mark each month in 2021. This is a huge accomplishment and expected to happen in November and December as well. Through October, year-to-date totals came in at $43.43 billion. <\/p>\n<p>While the full totals of November are not in yet, with what has been published, the US casinos have surpassed the 2019 full-year totals thus far. There are still more totals to come in, including December\u2019s earnings.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"state-totals-are-up-in-23-out-of-25-with-casino-gaming\">State Totals are up in 23 out of 25 With Casino Gaming <\/h2>\n<p>The report showed that 23 of 25 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casinousa.com\/states\">states in the US with commercial casino gaming<\/a> saw a revenue increase when compared to 2019. Michigan saw a slight decline of 3.6% and New Mexico even lower at 0.7%. From January to October, 14 states were able to generate more land-based income within the year than in 2019. <\/p>\n<p>In October, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casinousa.com\/news\/connecticut-plans-soft-launch-of-online-casino-market-from-october-12\">Connecticut also joined the commercial market with the launch of online gaming<\/a> and sports betting. This further added to the overall totals and boosted the revenue stream. It also helped that the last month has been a busy sports season. Through October, year-to-date sports betting handle totals $42.19 billion, almost double the amount from the same time frame in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>The 2021 totals thus far are a big accomplishment considering the disaster that was 2020. Last year, casinos were shut down for extended periods of time and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casinousa.com\/news\/caesars-announces-plans-to-reopen-rio-casino-before-december-2020\">reopened with limited hours<\/a> and services. There were also restrictions in play involving travel, mask wearing, and social distancing mandates to consider. <\/p>\n<p>Overall, the casinos in the United States have come a long way in just one year\u2019s time. It will be interesting to see the totals after Decembers numbers come in to see just how high the revenues are for 2021.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Summary So far, US commercial casinos have generated $44.15 billion.
