COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio’s 11 casinos and racinos reported $191 million of gambling revenue in September, $13 million less than in August when it set a monthly record with $204.1 million.

In 2023, the same casinos and racinos reported $190.3 million in revenue for September, according to data from the Ohio Casino Control and Lottery commissions.

The revenue figures are the money kept by the gambling houses, after paying out winnings, but before state taxes and fees.

The four casinos, which can offer slot machines and table games such as blackjack, reported $81.6 million of gambling revenue in September, down from $83.1 million in the same month last year.

The state’s seven racinos, the gambling houses at horse racetracks that can only offer slot machines, reported $109.4 million in September, up from $107.2 million in September of last year. The totals reported by the Lottery Commission do not include wagering on horse races.

Through eight months, Ohio’s gambling establishments are essentially flat on revenue year-over-year. So far in 2024 they’ve reported $1.8 billion in revenue.

In the Greater Cleveland market, September revenue was:

* $25.5 million at MGM Northfield Park, up from $26 million in August 2023.

* $15.1 million at JACK Thistledown Racino, up from $15.3 million.
