Louisiana casinos have joined the likes of other top gambling destinations by experiencing a revenue decrease in October over the previous year. The news was not all bad, however, with revenue increasing from september to October.

In October, revenue at Louisiana casinos was up 2.7 percent compared to September. The actual figure of $193 million was up from the $187 million that the casinos took in back in September. The year over year figures were still down, as was the case in most states.

For October of 2008, $207 million in revenue was made at Louisiana casinos. Although there was a decrease from 2008, there is still hope that the recession problems that casinos have experienced is starting to subside. (Casino Gambling Web)
