U.S. commercial casinos booked nearly $42.7 billion in gaming revenue in 2018, a new record for the industry.
Spurred mainly by major openings in Massachusetts, New York and Atlantic City, revenue jumped 4 percent over 2017, according to “The Adams Revenue Report,” a performance review encompassing 23 commercial casino markets compiled by gaming analyst and consultant Ken Adams.
It was a “good year,” according to Adams, who also credited it to increases in machine gaming numbers and the nationwide introduction of sports betting.
