Carson City gaming revenue down slightly in July, Lake Tahoe soars

Gaming revenue in the Carson City area fell 1.54 percent in July compared to the same time last year, while statewide gambling profits show a nearly 10 percent increase, according to figures released Wednesday by the Nevada Gaming Control Board.

Casinos in Carson City and Carson Valley took in a gaming “win” of $8,823,541 for July. In July 2015, the casinos took in $8.9 million.

It was Stateline at the south shore of Lake Tahoe that took in the most gaming related dollars in the Silver State, seeing a 20 percent increase over July 2015 figures. A significant chunk of the $27,985,039 collected in gaming revenue is likely because of the annual American Century Championship celebrity golf tournament held July 19-24 at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course and televised on NBC sports.
