Gamblers have increasingly taken to the casinos’ online gaming sites in their first year of operation, year-over-year revenue comparisons for November show.
Last month’s numbers, posted this week by the state Department of Consumer Protection’s Gaming Division, afford the first year-over-year comparison of a full month’s results.
Online casino gaming and sports betting in Connecticut began Oct. 12, 2021.
In November, Foxwoods Resort Casino and Mohegan Sun combined to generate $21.8 million in gross gaming revenue on more than $900 million in online wagers on casino games, including slots. The casinos paid 18% of the gross gaming revenue, or more than $3.9 million, to the state, a 57.5% increase over the nearly $2.5 million they paid for November 2021.
