The Story | |||||
New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement (DGE) figures showed that state-licensed online gambling operators generated revenue of $20.6m in November, up exactly one-fifth from the same month last year. The online casino vertical posted its usual gaudy gains, rising 24.6% to $18.8m. For the year-to-date, overall online revenue is up 26.1% to over $224.8m, with casino rising 31.6% to $202.5m. |
|||||

|||||
Online poker tumbled 13.1% to $1.8m, not far off the poker vertical's historic low of $1.73m set this June. Clearly, New Jersey’s online poker sites are hoping to get a boost from the interstate liquidity pact with Nevada and Delaware, and the plan to share liquidity with operators in certain international jurisdictions. |
