Sources
- New Jersey: DGE monthly press release for August 2024 (released Sep 16, 2024).
- Michigan: MGCB release for August 2024 (released Sep 17, 2024). Statewide figures are as printed, rounded to $0.1 million.
What these numbers are
- New Jersey, internet gaming win: what players lost to the state's licensed online casinos and poker rooms in the month (bets minus winnings paid), before promotional deductions. Published by the NJ Division of Gaming Enforcement around the middle of the following month. Online poker is a small part of it (peer-to-peer, $2.6M in August 2026).
- Michigan, iGaming gross receipts: the same measure for Michigan's online casinos and poker, published by the Michigan Gaming Control Board, usually in the third week of the following month. Adjusted gross receipts subtract the free-play and promotional credits Michigan lets operators deduct; the state taxes that figure.
- We compare New Jersey's win with Michigan's gross receipts because both are measured before promotions. Online sports betting is not included in either.
- From 2025 New Jersey reports each brand (FanDuel, DraftKings, BetMGM…) with the casino that hosts it; for 2023–2024 it reported by casino licensee only.
21+. These are the states' figures for licensed operators; they say nothing about any one player's chances. Gambling problem? New Jersey: 1-800-GAMBLER. Michigan: 1-800-270-7117.
