Pennsylvania casino revenues drop for 2nd straight year

Revenues at Pennsylvania's 12 casinos have dropped for a second straight year.


State regulators said gross revenue declined 1.44 percent to just more than $3 billion in 2014.


The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board released the year-end numbers on Thursday. They show that Pennsylvania casinos raked in $750 million from table games, a nearly three percent increase over 2013, but it wasn't enough to offset a slightly bigger decline in slot-machine play.


The casino industry ended the year on a strong note. December revenues were up more than eight percent.


Pennsylvania's gambling market is the nation's second largest after Las Vegas in terms of gross revenue, and No. 1 in taxes collected.
