The Massachusetts Gaming Commission hasn’t just been working diligently to launch and regulate sports betting in 2023. On Monday, the MGC took a detailed look back, as it released its 2022 Annual Report, which examines activities by the commission from Jul. 1, 2021 through Jun. 30, 2022.

The biggest number in the report was $1.1 billion — which was the gross gaming revenue for the period of July 2021 through the end of June of 2022. The bulk of that figure comes from slot machine play at the three Massachusetts casinos: Encore Boston Harbor, MGM Springfield and Plainridge Park Casino.

“This Annual Report details the hard work of the entire team at the MGC,” Commission Chair Cathy Judd-Stein said in a press release from the state. “And I want to commend them all for their consistent, thorough, and transformative efforts and their genuine commitment to public service during this fiscal year and in the busy period to come.”
