With much of the state and surrounding regions entombed in snow and ice during a significant part of February, the city’s casinos won less from gamblers than they did a year earlier.

Figures released Monday by the state Division of Gaming Enforcement show the nine casinos won just under $203 million from customers who braved the weather to gamble in person, a decrease of 0.3% from February 2025.

When internet and sports betting revenue is included, the casinos, two horse tracks that take sports bets and their online partners won $520.7 million, an increase of 7.4% from a year earlier.

But money from internet gambling and sports betting must be shared with partners including sportsbooks and tech platforms, and is not solely for the casinos to keep.
