\"vegas_gambling\"<\/a>August was a good month for Nevada gaming in general with baccarat the hero of the month pushing up revenues. The Gaming Control Board announced Monday 30th<\/sup> August that total revenues were up 11.2%, representing $955.3 million compared to $859.3 million for the period in 2012.<\/p>\n

The most impressive figure was baccarat which accounted for 69% of the revenue rise across the state.<\/p>\n

The main Vegas strip had a strong month from other table games, with revenue from those increasing by 21.5%<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile baccarat is clearly the star of the month, domestic play exhibited encouraging trends,\u201d Deutsche Bank gaming analyst Carlo Santarelli told investors.<\/p>\n

In the fledgling online poker business in Nevada figures for the month show that revenues were at $600,000 although no data has been given yet on results currently.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
