Kansas September casino revenue reaches $42.6m

October 19, 2023

Poker, slots and table games accounted for nearly two thirds of total revenue.

The Kansas Gaming and Racing Commission has released its casino gaming results for the month of September. The state’s four casinos raked in nearly $42.6m in total gaming revenue. Poker, slots and table games contributed close to $33.7m to the overall total.

Hollywood Casino & Resort took top spot for the month and finished September with $13.3m in revenue. Close to $11.7m came from electronic gaming machines, while $1.6m came from table games.

Kansas Star Casino & Resort followed close behind as the second-place earner, with almost $12.5m in total casino revenue for the month. Table games brought in nearly $1.5m, with EGMs contributing the other $11m.

Boot Hill Casino & Resort and Kansas Crossing Casino & Resort posted September revenue totals of $4.2m and $3.1m respectively.

Kansas’ casino paid nearly $9.7m in state and local taxes for the month of September. The state generated a total sportsbook win of $18.1m.

Players in Kansas wagered $219.2m throughout various sports betting venues during the month of September.

Sports betting has been legal in Kansas’ four casinos since 2022. However, historic horseracing (HHR) facilities are currently prohibited from having sportsbooks on site but can partner with mobile app providers to offer players online sports betting.

The Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission recently approved licensing for a Park City historic III gaming venue. Kansas passed a bill in 2022 to pave the way for both historic horseracing and sports betting. Senate Bill 84 outlines specific requirements, including allowing one facility in Sedgwick County.
