      Overview

      The US gambling, or gaming, industry consists of about 500 casinos, about 400 Indian casinos and bingo halls, and lotteries in about 40 states with combined annual revenue of about $80 billion. Companies with large casino operations include Harrah's Entertainment, MGM Resorts, and Boyd Gaming. About $30 billion of annual revenue is taken in by commercial casinos, $25 billion by Indian casinos, another $14 billion by state lotteries, and the rest by horse racing, bingo, charities, and bookmaking. (For gambling companies, "revenue" is the total amount bet minus winnings paid to gamblers.) Most casinos are small, limited by the size of the surrounding population. The industry is concentrated: the top 50 gaming companies hold about 60 percent of the market. The casino hotel market is even more concentrated, with the top 50 firms holding 90 percent of the market.

      How does the company manage its relationship with state gaming commissions?

      In states where gambling is legal, state commissions oversee gaming companies and have broad powers over their activities. State legislatures can easily raise tax rates on gambling machines. Continued industry growth depends on favorable legislation.
