Center for Gaming Research

Since the 2012 Nevada Gaming Abstract was released, we've been busy at the Center. Today I posted six (6!) new reports charting the performance of "average" casinos on the Las Vegas Strip, Downtown Las Vegas, Boulder Strip, Laughlin, and Reno/Sparks.

I find these reports useful because they provide a frame of reference for judging individual casino performance in their markets.

I split the Las Vegas Strip into two groups: the "big" casinos, which make more than $72 million a year, and the "small" casinos that make less than $72 million. Big and small is just about money here: a "small" casino might have more rooms and square footage than a "big" one, but make less money. The Gaming Control Board breaks them down this way, and I think that you'll find it useful.

Here they are:

This is fun--I've just posted a new report:

Florida Racinos: Monthly Slot Revenues 
Units, Credits In, Promotional Credits, Net Revenues, and Other Metrics
 
It's got just about all the data on Florida racinos that I could find--should be informative for those interested in the Florida racino industry.

With the release of the November 2012 November Gaming Revenue Report by the Nevada Gaming Control Board, we have produced the customary two reports that chart the financial performance of Nevada casinos:
