Ohio Crosses $1.1B in Sports Bets in First Month of Gambling

The Buckeye State launched its sports gambling industry to a tremendous start and elicited a healthy rate of participation from local sports aficionados.
January 2023 was essentially the first month of sports gambling in Ohio, as the state amassed $1.1 billion in total sports gambling wagers placed. It’s still worth noting that $320 million of the wagers were offered by sportsbooks in the form of various promotional inducements and incentives.

Once the industry adjusts to this, the results may actually begin to wane a little. But for the time being, Ohio is going to wax, with $21 million generated for the state’s coffers in tax revenue. The Ohio Casino Control Commission, which regulates the sports gambling industry in Buckeye State, offered a detailed breakdown of both retail and mobile performance.
