A new sports betting revenue record has been set in Kansas, with December's number beating the recent October best.
Figures from the Kansas Lottery show operators in the Sunflower State made US$20.1m, up 39.6 per cent from October’s $14.4m.
Kansas posted the new record amid a fall in retail sports betting revenue from the October high.
Retail sports betting revenue dropped from $1.2m in October to $808,961 in December, but online revenues jumped from $13.1m to $19.2m.
December’s sports betting handle of $259.7m fell short of the record $260.9m bet in November.
DraftKings and FanDuel dominated for operator revenues in Kansas in December, posting $8.5m and $7.2m respectively.
