Pennsylvania casino revenue at the state’s 16 brick-and-mortar properties slowed in November from a year ago. Whether inflation and the high costs of daily living or the ongoing migration of gamblers to online casinos and sportsbooks are more responsible for the retail gaming declines<\/a> isn’t immediately known.<\/p>\n

The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board reports gross gaming revenue (GGR) last month at the 16 casinos totaled approximately $264.8 million. Land-based casino revenue in November 2021 was approximately $268.4 million — about 1.3% higher.<\/p>\n

Slot income was flat, as the terminals generated GGR of $185.6 million last month, a slight year-over-year increase from the $185.5 million won in November 2021.<\/p>\n

The roughly $3.6 million land-based decline was partly because of poorer table game revenue. Table GGR went from $82.9 million in November 2021 to $79.2 million last month.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Parx Casino outside of Philadelphia was the dominant retail player last month. Parx led the way in brick-and-mortar slot income with a little more than $30 million. The casino placed second in table revenue at $16.2 million, behind Wind Creek Bethlehem at $19.6 million.<\/p>\n

    iGaming Offsets Declines<\/b><\/h2>\n

    Pennsylvania is one of only six states that have legal, regulated online casinos with slot machines and table games. And iGaming business continues to enlarge in the commonwealth.<\/p>\n

    \n

    GGR from interactive gaming, inclusive of online slots, tables, and poker rake, totaled a little more than $128.6 million in November 2022. That’s a 37% surge — or about a $34.8 million increase — from November 2021.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    iGaming’s ongoing growth easily offset November’s brick-and-mortar losses. Online gaming also bridged the year-over-year revenue gap caused by sportsbooks.<\/p>\n

    Oddsmakers fared worse last month than they did in November 2021. Sports betting income dropped 17% to $52.8 million. That’s a year-over-year difference of about $10.8 million.<\/p>\n

    iGaming also covered a GGR drop caused by fantasy sports operators, which saw their income tumble 25% to $2.5 million. Video gaming terminals at certain truck stops won $3.5 million — up about 10%.<\/strong><\/p>\n

    When revenue from all verticals was tallied<\/a>, Pennsylvania’s gaming industry reported November GGR of approximately $452.4 million. That’s 4.6% better than November 2021.<\/p>\n

    State Acknowledges Online Migration<\/b><\/h2>\n

    Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board spokesperson Doug Harbach told the Tribune-Review <\/i>that players are becoming more comfortable gambling online. And as the winter months set in, many traditional retail gamblers are testing their luck over the internet.<\/p>\n

    \n

    One driver is the continued acceptance of gambling online. I think patrons are becoming more comfortable with the sites and trusting the integrity of the sites — and that’s our job, to make sure that integrity is present,” Harbach explained.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

    The state next year will continue to consider a satellite casino pitch targeting the Nittany Mall in State College near Penn State University. Bally’s wants to build a mini-casino in a former Macy’s department store, but legal challenges threaten to impede the development’s authorization.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
