New Jersey’s land-based and online casinos and sports betting, as well as horse tracks ofering sports betting, won $470.6 million from gamblers in August.  That number represents a 10% increase from this same period last year.

The amount of money won from in-person gamblers at casinos was nearly $274 million, up 4.4% from a year earlier.
