<br>July is notorious for its sparse sports calendar and thus its limited betting menu. Kansas sports betting, much like many other legal sports states, [notched](https://jani.com.br/best-beauty-products) its lowest monthly handle in July 2023 and according to the latest numbers released by the Kansas Lottery, this year will be no different.<br>
|
||||
<br>Kansas sportsbooks notched their second-worst overall hold of 2024 (7.54%) to generate $9.199 million in revenue.<br>
|
||||
<br>May and June were the only months of the year where [sportsbooks](https://git.entryrise.com/lola425827049) in Kansas maintained a double-digit [hold percentage](http://airart.hebbelille.net/index.php/2015/05/19/hello-world/).<br>
|
||||
<br>July’s revenue was actually not the lowest of the year though, with February’s paltry 4.2% hold only churning $8.46 million for operators despite the $203.0 million handle that month.<br>
|
||||
<br>State coffers collected $919,947 in tax contributions, with all but $5,237 coming from Kansas’ [online sportsbooks](https://www.epesuj.cz/wiki/index.php/U%C5%BEivatel:BrigidaFtn).<br>
|
||||
<br>How it stacks up<br>
|
||||
<br>To no surprise, handle and revenue both declined month-over-month by 12.9% and 1.8%, respectively. The [silver lining](https://gitea.primecontrols-dev.com/cristinabetche) though is the Kansas sports betting market is growing in the aggregate since it achieved sizable year-over-year gains in both categories, finishing with a 53.1% boost in handle and a 34.7% increase in revenue.<br>
|
||||
<br>Sportsbooks in Kansas have also [collected](https://gratisafhalen.be/author/daisynunan/) more than $100 million in wagers each month since September 2023 as well, even though handle has declined month-over-month since March.<br>
|
||||
<br>Kansas Governor Laura Kelly recently signed House Bill 2001 into law, [allowing](https://www.truelovetattoos.it/2017/01/09/easily-add-galleries-to-blog-posts/) her state to offer the NFL’s [Kansas City](https://aaronpexa.com/cool-gallery-portfolio-templates/) Chiefs and MLB’s Kansas City Royals stadium project [incentives](https://gratisafhalen.be/author/maricela453/) to move across the state line. A portion of tax cuts could come from Kansas’ sports betting revenue, while [neighboring Missouri](https://www.mbmimpianti.it/wildlife-could-be-amazing-see-why/) still does not have a legal sports betting market.<br>

<br>Best Kansas sportsbooks<br>
|
||||
<br>There are only four retail sportsbooks in Kansas, with DraftKings, FanDuel, ESPN BET and Caesars operating them.<br>
|
||||
<br>These four locations collected a total of $3.23 million in retail wagers, with ESPN BET’s spot at Hollywood Casino accounting for $2.26 million of that haul - nearly 70%. Only DraftKings’ and FanDuel’s [locations](http://139.159.153.1433000/zacklevi874876/the-bet-naija-promo-code-for-2026-is-yohaig/wiki/The-Bet9JA-promo-code-2026-is-YOHAIG) reported revenue totaling $52,372 for the month.<br>
