New Jersey egaming revenues up 30%
Casino and poker both enjoy growth while Golden Nuggets maintains market lead
New Jerseyâs five egaming operators saw October revenues grow 30% year-on-year to $16.7m, according to new figures from the stateâs Division of Gaming Enforcement.
Online casino continued its extended growth spurt, reaching $14.3m and growing 30â% year-on-year.
Poker also continued to rebound from its summer slump, growing 25% to $2.4m.
Online gaming win for the first ten months of the year has already surpassed FY2015, at $161.2m.
Atlantic Cityâs Golden Nugget casino consolidated its new position as the state’s largest egaming operator, growing revenues 51% year-on-year to $4.1m.
The Borgata did not rebound as well as some predicted after slipping from the top spot last month, growing 5% to $3.7m, although it was still the second largest operator in the market.
Tropicana took third place with $3.1m, followed by Caesars at $3.05m and Resorts at $2.7m.
Resorts was however buoyed by its PokerStars partnership, which contributed just over $1m to the total, thanks to a bump from the inaugural New Jersey Championship of Online Poker.
The figures were much less rosy in Delaware, where the stateâs three igaming operators saw revenues drop 20% sequentially and 1% year-on-year to $180,000.
The drop off came largely from video lottery play, which was down around a third to $95,000. Poker was also down 23% to $26,000.
Dover Downs was the worst affected operator, losing 65% of revenues month-on-month.
