The Michigan Gaming Control Board released its mobile sports betting and casino figures for November on Wednesday.
The mobile Michigan sportsbooks reported a slight increase in sports betting handle (or amount wagered) from October. But the overall handle fell slightly because the amount bet at the state’s retail sports betting locations decreased. The state’s mobile sports betting handle was $479.98 million, which was up 1.3% from November 2021 ($473.83 million) but down slightly from October’s $480.79 million in a month-over-month comparison.
Retail Sports Betting Drops
The numbers from the Michigan Gaming Control Board showed that the state’s combined retail sports betting handle was just over $18.1 million, a 23% decrease from October, when that figure was over $23.5 million. And last month’s retail handle was down 32.1% from November 2021, when it was about $26.7 million.
Michigan’s total sports betting handle was $498,118,042, a 1.2% decrease from October ($504.3 million) and a 0.5% dip from 12 months earlier.
Michigan’s November gross gaming revenue totaled $27.5 million, with the majority of that coming online ($25.65 million). The total adjusted sports betting GGR was down nearly 19% from October ($33.88 million) and nearly 30% from November of last year ($38.79 million).
The state’s total qualified adjusted gross receipts (revenue) at retail sportsbooks also took a month-to-month decline at $1,863,019. That’s an 11.1% drop from the October Michigan sports betting revenue, which was over $2 million. The same 11.1% decrease from October was found in the state’s retail sports betting wagering tax, which was $70,422 in November and $79,182 in October, and the City of Detroit’s wagering tax, which was $86,071 in November and $96,778 in October.
