New Jersey’s online gambling market failed to set another revenue record in November but its sports betting operators obliterated the nation’s previous high-water handle total.

Figures released Monday by the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement (DGE) show the state’s licensed online casino/poker operators generated combined revenue of $91.8m in November, a nearly 87% rise from the same month last year but a modest step back from October 2020’s record $93.5m. 

Online casino games brought in $89.4m, up 87.7% year-on-year, while online poker continued its modest resurgence with $2.4m, up more than three-fifths. For the year-to-date, overall online revenue stands at $870.9m, twice the sum generated in the first 11 months of 2019. 

The Golden Nugget maintained its online casino dominance in November with revenue of $26m (+37.5%), while positions two and three were respectively maintained by the Borgata casino’s digital partners ($23.4m, +185%) and Resorts Digital Gaming ($21m, +90.8%).
