INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Caesars Entertainment will have another year to sell its northwestern Indiana casino as required by state officials.

A greater availability of mobile sports betting contributed to a substantially larger handle in the month of November in the state of Indiana, but a lower hold and adjustments resulted in less tax revenue pouring into the state’s coffers according to figures released Tuesday by the Indiana Gaming Commission.
The Hoosier State reported an overall handle of $147.28 million, a 60.6% increase from October’s $91.7 mm. Tax revenues, however, dipped to $883,361, which was 19.4% lower than the previous month’s $1.09 mm generated on the state’s 9.5% tax rate on sports betting.
The state’s nine casinos and two racinos — Rising Star Casino opened its sportsbook on Nov. 11 — had a hold of just 6.31% in November, well off October’s 12.58%.
