NEW JERSEY SPORTS BETTING
Super Bowl betting pushed New Jersey’s online and retail sportsbooks to a strong February, though the monthly handle fell short of $500m for the first time since October. But the concern for New Jersey’s sportsbooks is what lies ahead after the NBA suspended its season, the NCAA Tournament limited spectators, and other leagues mull suspensions.
“New Jersey’s year-over-year gains remained impressive in February, but we are in uncharted territory now,” said Dustin Gouker, lead analyst for
PlayNJ.com. “Obviously there are bigger concerns with coronavirus, but the NBA is a major revenue driver for New Jersey’s sportsbooks. So the suspension of the season, in addition to suspensions of other sports, will undoubtedly have a significant effect.”
New Jersey’s online and retail sportsbooks made a giant year-over-year leap in handle to $494.8m, up 54.4 per cent from $320.4m in February 2019. New Jersey generated $54.2m in Super Bowl bets, but that was second to Nevada’s $156.8m. Still, the Garden State could surpass Nevada, which posted a $458.6m in handle in February 2019. Despite losing $4.3m on the big game, New Jersey sportsbooks managed to produce $17min gross revenue,
Great Canadian closures in British Colombia and Ontario
Canada
Great Canadian Gaming Corporation has confirmed the temporary suspension of gaming facilities in Ontario, British Columbia, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick until further notice in an effort to contribute to the containment of the COVID-19 virus.
Te suspension of the company’s gaming facilities was made in consultation with the respective lottery corporations and based on announcements from health authorities regarding the risk of possible transmission of the COVID-19 virus in venues where the public may congregate in significant numbers.
resulting in $2.2m in tax revenue for the state. Revenue was up 33.9 per cent from $12.7m in February 2019. Basketball, which produced a $6.6m win on $219.3m in wagers, helped sportsbooks overcome the Super Bowl loss.“New Jersey bettors continue to show heavy interest in basketball,” Gouker said. “March Madness appears as of now as if it will be played, and it is one of the largest betting holidays in the US But it is impossible to gauge just how much interest there will be if it is played at all.”
Online betting generated $436.5m in wagers, 88.2 per cent of the state’s handle in February. FanDuel Sportsbook/PointsBet led the way with $9.6m in gross revenue from online betting, down from $22.2m in January. Resorts Digital, anchored by DraftKings and FOX Bet, generated $4m, down from $15.9m. Te online market leaders were followed by Monmouth Park/William Hill/Sugarhouse/TeScore which generated $1.3m in revenue, down from $2.8m in January. BetMGM/Borgata Hotel Casino and Spa came third followed by Ocean Resort Casino/William Hill. FanDuel Sportsbook at Te Meadowlands again capitalised on the New York market and from localised betting on the XFL. Te retail market leader posted $1.4m in gross
No cases of the COVID-19 virus have been reported by any guests or employees of the company at any of its properties and the closures are preventative in nature to limit the potential for transmission of the virus.
Te suspensions are temporary and will be reviewed as the situation with respect to the COVID-19 virus evolves. Great Canadian is committed to providing a safe environment for all its guests and staff and will provide further updates as they develop.
Rod Baker, Chief Executive Officer, commented on the closure of its locations: “In conjunction with our crown partners in Ontario, British Columbia, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick, Great Canadian Casino Facilities have temporarily suspended all operations as of March 15.”
Nevada
Maverick Gaming is buying Montbleu Resort Casino & Spa in Lake Tahoe, Nevada from Eldorado Resorts. Te property includes over 400 hotel rooms, nearly 600 slot machines, 30 table games, with a 1,200 seat showroom and four restaurants. “With this acquisition we will increase our position in Northern Nevada to five casinos with inventory nearing 1,600 hotel rooms, and over 2,100 slot machines,” said Eric Persson, majority owner of Maverick Gaming. “We see great opportunity in Northern Nevada and the Reno Tahoe market, and are actively seeking more distribution there.” Tom Reeg, Chief Executive Officer of Eldorado, added: “Te agreement to divest Montbleu is consistent with our continued focus on the expected closing for the Caesars transaction in the first half of 2020.”
