The Santa Fe New Mexican reports the state Gaming Control Board said some northern pueblos posted the biggest gains for the 2018 fiscal year.
Taos Pueblo reported raking in $7.7 million from slot players during the state fiscal year that ended June 30, a 7 percent increase from the previous fiscal year.
Tesuque Pueblo reported $21.1 million in slot revenues, up 6 percent, and Ohkay Owingeh reported $17.2 million, up 5 percent.
The board reported the net slot machine win for all gaming tribes for the 2018 fiscal year totaled more than $756 million.
The growth in the tribes’ slot winnings means more money for them to spend on education, health and other initiatives.
