Nevada’s poker rooms raked $16,137,000 during June, in keeping with figures released this week by Silver State gaming regulators.

That amount came from 65 poker rooms and 763 live tables statewide.

The rake was a rise of 1.88 percent year-over-year, in comparison to the $15,840,000 in rake from June 2015. The once a year World Series of Poker runs throughout the entire month of June, which makes it the largest month for cash games in Nevada poker rooms.

The $16,137,000 was probably the most within the month of June since 2009, when June had $16,222,000 in rake. The best-ever best June was in 2007, when revenue was $17,661,000.

The Las Vegas Strip area had $12,931,000 of the revenue this June, up just below three percent year-over-year. The realm had 21 poker rooms and 423 tables. June’s Strip rake was greater than double the rake in May. In 2016, for the primary time in years, the WSOP didn’t begin in May.

Nevada’s poker revenue includes online play, however the state doesn’t separate the totals and release it to the general public because there aren’t enough operators.

According to PokerScout, the typical for Nevada online poker cash game traffic (which incorporates liquidity sharing with Delaware) throughout the peak time of the WSOP was greater than 200 players.

Here’s a glance at Nevada’s poker revenue to this point in 2016:

January: $9.5 million (2.85-percent decrease)
February: $8.98 million (5.44-percent increase)
March: $9.68 million (0.01-percent decrease)
April: $8.57 million (0.86-percent increase)
May: $8.88 million (13.92-percent decrease)
June: $16.14 million (1.88-percent increase)

The poker rooms raked a little bit over $118 million in 2015, which was a 1.57-percent decline in comparison to 2014’s $119.9 million. Poker revenue was $123.9 million in 2013.

The all-time high for Nevada poker was just below $168 million in 2007.
