Nevada casino win down nearly 4 percent in February: "There was no leap in the win for Nevada casinos in February despite an extra Leap Year day in the month and other seemingly positive factors. The clubs won $1.01 billion, down nearly 4 percent compared with the same month a year earlier.
The slump occurred despite a 29th day for the month, the reopening of a major Las Vegas resort that had been closed by a fire, and tourist draws including Superbowl and Chinese New Year activities and a three-day President's Day holiday.
'We were disappointed but we can't say it was unexpected,' Gaming Control Board analyst Frank Streshley said in releasing the February win report on Wednesday. 'It's definitely a reflection of the soft economy and people tightening up their spending habits.'"
