Columbus Leads Property Gains

Hollywood Columbus led the state with $26,482,973, up 20.1% from $22,046,398, the largest year-over-year gain among the four properties by RG's calculation. Its table count rose to 114 from 103 a year earlier.

Jack Cleveland won $20,928,502, up 7.0%. Hard Rock Cincinnati won $20,467,879, up 15.6%, and Hollywood Toledo won $19,797,687, up 6.9%, RG calculated.

Ohio taxes casinos at 33% of gross casino revenue, and the state distributes the tax among counties, schools, host cities and other funds, including 2% for the Problem Gambling and Addictions Fund, according to the commission. The figures do not include the state's racinos, which report to the Ohio Lottery.

Ohio's sports betting operators reported their September results separately; RG's September sports betting report has the details. The commission has also ordered prediction market operators to stop offering sports contracts in the state, and RG's Ohio sportsbooks guide lists licensed options.

Percentage changes are RG calculations based on the Ohio Casino Control Commission's monthly reports.
