Table Games Revenue Down $1 Million

The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board releases February table games revenue.

The table games revenue at The Meadows Racetrack & Casino in North Strabane fell about $1 million in February from a year ago.

The Meadows table games revenue was $2,934,701 in February 2012 and just $1,941,422 in February 2013, according to the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board.

The casino's general Manager Sean Sullivan told the Observer-Reporter that "a variety of factors, from weather to a shorter month (2012 was a leap year) to a guest who won big against the house, all contributed to the revenue loss."
