Colorado sports betting revenue reaches record $36.8m in November
| By Robert Fletcher
Colorado set a new monthly sports betting record of $36.8m (£27.2m/€32.6m) in November 2021, while the US state’s handle fell just short of the all-time high total achieved in the previous month.
Consumers in the state wagered $475.4m on sports during November, which was 3.3% less than the record $491.5m spent in October 2021, but more than double the $231.2m bet in November of 2020.
Players spent a total of $469.0m betting online during the month, while the other $6.4m was wagered at retail sportsbooks across the state.
After accounting for $438.7m in player winnings, this left $36.8m in gross gaming revenue, a new monthly high for the state, smashing the previous record of $28.6m set in October 2021 by 28.7%.
