The PGCB reported 34.8% revenue growth year-over-year to $132.9 million for July 2023. Revenue from online slots was $94.9 million, with $35.4 million revenue from table games. It was however a 19.3% revenue decline month-over-month from June 2023. Although table games revenue increased month-over-month, poker rake and slots revenue both declined.
