Nevada casinos are on course to record the highest annual house winnings, according to the gambling regulatory board, indicating a shaky return back to normalcy for the state’s biggest industry after the pandemic-related shutdowns.
According to statements published by the Nevada Gaming Control Board, casinos had an incredible streak this year, the longest on record, with $1-billion-plus monthly gaming revenue over nine straight months. With December’s tally yet to be counted, this year has, till now, brought in $12.28 billion gaming revenues, more than 50 percent higher than in the entire 2020.
