That bettered the previous record of nearly $691 million set in March 2022. Arizona sports betting handle was up 15.6% compared to November 2022 and 10.1% from October as Arizona moved within $120 million of clearing $6 billion worth of accepted bets for the second straight year.

Arizona became the 16th state to post an all-time high for accepted wagers in November, leaving Kentucky as the last state to report. If the Bluegrass State totals $310 million handle for that month, the national monthly record will be set at just over $14.5 billion.
