Nevada Sportsbetting Numbers Rise in September

This story was published more than 4 years ago.

This week the Nevada Gaming Control Board revealed that sportsbetting numbers were up in September, bringing in $991.2 million in revenues during the period.

Baseball bets grew 14.7% to $4.25 million, with other sports bringing in about $1.5 million.
