内华达州赌场6月份收入下降6%

　　在6月份，内华达州赌场的收入下降了6％，并且财政年度收入仅仅只提升的一点点，内华达州博彩管制局周四报道。

　　6月份整个州的赌场从赌徒处赢利8.325亿美元，比一年前下降了885.7亿美元。

　　“6月份的结果标志着在过去的4个月里第二个月和第三个月持续的下滑。”资深分析师迈克说劳顿表示。

　　内华达州每月收的税款38亿美元，下降了27%，收集的数据不一定符合报道的奖金数额，因为大多数赌徒投注信贷和贷款而不用缴税。

　　拉斯维加斯地带赌场约占全州的赌博收入的一半以上，据报道六月份收入4.837亿美元，下降4.5%，但拉斯维加斯市中心贴出下降13%，约3370万美元。

　　Washoe城的赌场有这个月的收入会更多。雷诺带来了近5000万美元的收入，和去年相比，同比增长9.4%，从整体看整个县城上涨7.3%一样。

　　南塔霍湖市的收入为1700万美元，同比增长17％。

　　六月份，赌场在扑克、棋牌、老虎机上从赌徒那里赢了11.2亿美元，数据显示，87亿美元赌注在老虎机和影碟机，26亿美元赌注是在棋牌类。赌风一直遍布全州，并且赌徒们一直运气较好。

　　加沙地带的6月，比老虎机原3.1亿美元的收入下跌63230万美元。

　　“加沙地带，我们在老虎机上的收入持续下降，”劳顿说，“我们很关心这方面的事情。”

　　“我们已经连老本都输掉了，真的。”

　　截至6月30日的财政年度报表，赌场赢总额达107亿美元，比去年上涨0.7％，投注总额139.7亿美元，上涨0.9%，在老虎机上的赌注上涨1%，达到1070亿美元，而桌面游戏微张0.6%，达到318亿美元。

　　“虽然微薄，但这是制2007年以来的首次增长。”劳顿说。

　　这份报告还表明，赌场市场上当地人的满意度略高于其它地方的人，暗示这些地区可能会开始看到经济的稳定。

　　Nevada casino revenue dropped 6 percent in June and showed only a small uptick for the fiscal year, the Nevada Gaming Control Board reported Thursday.

　　Statewide, casinos won $832.5 million from gamblers in June, down from $885.7 million the same month a year ago.

　　The June results mark the second straight monthly decline and the third in the past four months, said Mike Lawton, senior analyst with the control board.

　　The state of Nevada collected $38 million in taxes based on the June revenue, which was down 27 percent. Collections don't necessarily coincide with the amount of winnings reported because a lot of bets are made on credit and casinos don't pay taxes on those until gamblers pay up.

　　Las Vegas Strip casinos, which account for more than half of statewide gambling revenue, reported winnings of $483.7 million in June, a decline of 4.5 percent. Downtown Las Vegas brought in $33.7 million posting a 13 percent drop.

　　Washoe County casinos had a much better month. Reno brought in nearly $50 million, up 9.4 percent up from the same time last year, while the county overall saw a 7.3 percent jump in winnings.

　　South Lake Tahoe revenue of $17 million was up 17 percent.

　　The "win" is what was left in casino coffers after gamblers wagered $11.2 billion in June playing cards, table games and slot machines. A breakdown shows $8.7 billion was bet at slot and video machines and $2.6 billion on table games. While the volume of play was up statewide, luck was on the side of gamblers, who beat the house more than in June 2011.

　　On the Strip, the $3.1 billion wagered on slots in June was down $63.2 million.

　　"We've had three consecutive declines for slot volume on the Strip," Lawton said. "We're a little concerned about that.

　　"We've lost some steam this quarter, for sure."

　　For the fiscal year that ended June 30, total casino win totaled $10.7 billion, up 0.7 percent from the previous year. Wagers amounted to $139.7 billion, up 0.9 percent. Betting on slots rose 1 percent to $107 billion, while table game wagers inched up 0.6 percent to $31.8 billion.

　　While meager, the slot volume is the first increase reported since 2007, Lawton said.

　　The report also noted casino markets that cater more to locals than tourists saw modest gains, suggesting those areas may be starting to see a stabilizing of the economy.
