The two Ohio casinos have only been open a short time but already are experiencing a decline in revenues.
According to the Ohio Casino Control Commission, the Cleveland and Toledo casinos had revenue totaling $43 million in July, a 7 percent drop from the $46 million recorded in June.
The biggest July decline was slots play at the Hollywood Toledo casino, licensed by Penn National Gaming Inc. The property said its slots play of $170 million was down 13 percent from the $195 million in wagering recorded in June.
Ohio has two more casinos under construction, one in Columbus and another in Cincinnati.
