Nearly $39.5 million was wagered at Louisiana’s state-licensed casinos in December, the second full month of legalized sports betting.
The 11 riverboats, racinos and Harrah’s land-based casino licensed for sports betting recorded net proceeds of nearly $4.4 million, according to figures released Thursday by the Louisiana Gaming Control Board.
In comparison, more than $56.8 million was wagered at the more than two dozen sports books in Mississippi casinos during December, with the properties bringing in revenues of $3.2 million.
The eight sports books that were operating in November reported $27.6 million in wagers, with revenues of nearly $5.7 million.
