The New York Gaming Commission reported a total handle of $440.9 million for the week ending April 28, with revenue hitting $39.5 million and a 9% hold despite the ongoing NBA playoffs and MLB games.

FanDuel reclaimed the top spot from DraftKings by generating a weekly handle of $189.7 million, leading in revenue with $21.9 million for the week ending April 28. This achievement marked the fourth time in five weeks that FanDuel exceeded $20 million in profits.
