Encore GGR Hits Record High in December 2019

Encore Boston Harbor casino has reported record-high gross gaming revenue (GGR) of $54.01 million for December 2019. About $31.4 million of the casino’s December revenue came from its table games while the remaining $22.6 million was generated from the roughly $276.5 million that gamblers put into the casino’s slot machines last month.
MGM Springfield brought in less revenue last month than it has in any full month since its August 2018 opening. The casino reported taking in a total of $18.95 million, a decline of more than 12% from the $21.58 million in revenue the casino saw in December 2018.
The state government can expect to collect about $13.5 million in taxes from Encore Boston Harbor and another $4.7 million in taxes from MGM Springfield. Combined, the two full-scale casinos generated about $18.24 million in tax revenue for the state in December. The two full-scale casinos in Massachusetts are taxed at a rate of 25% of their gross gaming revenue.
