For the third straight month the volume of sports betting in Ohio has seen year-over-year growth, showing that 2023′s betting numbers from the first year weren’t all just pent-up demand.
Gamblers bet $672 million on sports in April, up 29% from $522 million bet during April 2023, according to compiled data from the Ohio casino and lottery commissions.
Ohioans have place just under $3 billion in bets through four months, essentially on pace with last year, the first year you could legally bet on sports in the Buckeye State.
This January only saw $812 million in bets, down from the $1.1 billion seen in January 2023 when the whole industry launched.
