The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board (PGCB) has reported a remarkable month for the state’s gambling industry, with total combined revenue from all forms of gaming reaching $597 million in October.
This performance represents a robust 20.22% increase year-over-year and an 11.4% rise from September 2025. The headline success of the month was the iGaming sector, which shattered previous records by generating $251 million in revenue.
The breakdown of the online gaming figures reveals widespread growth across digital verticals. Online slots were the primary driver, contributing $190.8 million, while online table games generated $57.8 million.
Online poker also contributed $2.5 million to the pot. This $251 million total represents a massive 32.8% increase compared to the previous year, comfortably surpassing the prior record of $238.2 million set in March 2025.
The tax revenue generated from iGaming alone totaled $112.7 million, underscoring the sector’s importance to the state budget, simultaneously contributing to the online gaming revenue of the state Pennsylvania.
In the land-based sector, Hollywood Casino at Penn National Race Course led the market with $114.5 million in revenue, marking a 38.7% year-over-year increase.
Valley Forge Casino Resort followed with $101.3 million, while Rivers Casino Philadelphia and Parx Casino also posted healthy gains.

The PGCB remains active in its regulatory duties alongside reporting these financial gains.
The Board recently approved three consent agreements presented by the Office of Enforcement Counsel, resulting in $72,000 in fines issued for various incidents at casinos and Video Gaming Terminal (VGT) establishments, ensuring that record revenues are matched by strict compliance oversight.
