In the opening week, Encore Boston Harbor Casino produced nearly as much revenue as MGM Springfield for Mass.
In the first week of operation, the Encore Boston Harbor casino in Everett produced nearly the same amount of tax revenue for Massachusetts as MGM Springfield took the entire month to achieve. But both casinos failed to match the amount of tax revenue generated by Plainridge Park Casino for the month. Massachusetts Gaming Commission statistics show Encore Boston Harbor generated $ 16.78 million in gaming revenue from its first operating day on Sunday, June 23 through Sunday, June 30. Game tables accounted for $ 7.6 million in revenue and slot machines accounted for $ 9.11 million. The state raised 25 percent in taxes on the Encore Boston Harbor winnings, which were nearly $ 4.2 million in the first eight days of operations. Boston Harbor Encore opened to customers last month with a 21[ads1]0,000 square foot gaming area with 3,100 slot machines and 143 table games in the main area of the casino, with a second-level poker poker room offering high-end poker, VIP and private gaming experiences. The same statistics from the State Gambling Commission show that MGM Springfield generated $ 19.95 million in game revenue for the whole of June. Game tables accounted for $ 5.25 million in revenue and slot machines accounted for $ 14.69 million. The state gathered 25 percent in taxes on the winnings from MGM Springfield, nearly $ 4.98 million in the month of June. MGM Springfield debuted on August 24, 2018 with a 125,000-square-meter casino with 2550 slot machines, 120 gaming tables, a poker room and a high VIP VIP lounge. The report also breaks down the turnover of Plainridge Park Casino, which has now been open for four years, and is based in Southeast Massachusetts near the Rhode Island border. The statistics show that Plainridge generated $ 13.54 million in game revenue for the month of June, with slot machines and electronic gambling accounting for all revenue. Due to the license held by Plainridge Park Casino, gross gaming revenue is taxed at a rate of 49 percent against the 25 percent that both MGM Springfield and Encore Boston Harbor are taxed on. In total, Massachusetts received $ 15.8 million in casino tax last month.
