The haul, which came on a 14.6% hold against a $187.1 million handle, easily topped its previous best of $25.1 million established Aug. 6. It was the sixth time DraftKings surpassed $20 million in winnings in a week in the Empire State and the second time in 2024.

That mark led a big week for the state’s nine sports betting apps, which combined to craft a 12.6% win rate in collecting $57.3 million in revenue.
