Total gambling revenue in November amounted to $283.3m (£209.3m/€231.1m), down 2.7% from $292.1m in November 2019 and also 11.5% lower than the $320.2m posted in October this year, according to the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board (PGCB) figures.

The decline came despite another strong performance from the sports betting vertical, with revenue after promotional credits reaching a record $37.4m,  up 153.7% and surpassing the previous record of $36.8m set in October this year.

Online sports betting accounted for $31.2m of this total, compared to $6.2m from retail wagering.

Players spent a total of $491.9m on sports betting in November, an increase of 55.4% on last year, but short of the record ($525.8m) set in October 2020.
