A record number of self-banned gamblers have been slipping into Maryland's casinos during the coronavirus pandemic, risking arrest and having their winnings stripped, according to state and criminal records.
Revenue from Pennsylvania casinos dropped by nearly $800 million last year compared to 2019 as the COVID-19 pandemic ravaged the industry with forced closures and reduced capacities.
And at least one industry expert said the casino business will not soon return to pre-coronavirus levels and those that think otherwise are “crazy.”
The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board reported last month that the state’s 13 casinos generated $2.6 billion in 2020, down about 22% from 2019 when it totaled $3.4 billion, after they were closed a third of their usual operating days due to the pandemic.
The figures include combined revenue from slots, table games, sports betting, internet gaming and video gaming terminals.
