Four months after sports betting became legal in Ohio, the numbers seem to have leveled out.
A report from the Ohio Casino Control Commission shows revenue down $114 million since January.
“It came out of the gates really aggressively,” explained JACK Entertainment senior vice president of sports and digital gaming Adam Suliman.
In January, Ohio brought in $209,302,866 from sports gambling.
Suliman told 3News that promotional and advertisement spending has been reduced since January from sports betting operators. For example, in January, JACK Entertainment spent $1.2 million on promotions, as opposed to $230,000 in March.
To attract customers to their sportsbook, JACK Entertainment has held larger viewing events during main sporting events.
