New York online sports betting dipped slightly during the week of Feb. 20, but the slight decrease was to be expected with no NFL games and a limited slate of NBA games for the week.

The total handle for the week ending Feb. 20 was $353,431,983, according to the New York State Gaming Commission. The handle decreased nearly $120 million from the week before, but with the NFL having concluded and with the NBA halting due to the All-Star break the decrease was not unexpected.

However, it’s worth noting that the state’s online sports gross gaming revenue increased over the Super Bowl week. The state took in $25,436,702 in gross gaming revenue for Feb. 20, and increase of more than $10 million from the week of Feb. 13.
