Nevada Sportsbooks Set Record $22.1M Profit on Super Bowl LIX

Philadelphia Eagles’ upset victory over the Kansas City Chiefs contributed to historic sportsbook earnings despite a decline in total wagers placed.

Nevada sportsbooks earned a record $22.1 million in net profit from Super Bowl LIX, surpassing the previous record of $19.7 million set in 2014.
Total bets placed in Nevada on this year’s Super Bowl amounted to $151.6 million, a 20% decrease from last year’s record-breaking $190 million wagered in Las Vegas.
Sportsbooks benefited from balanced betting on the Eagles and Chiefs but capitalized heavily on player prop bets, including Saquon Barkley not scoring a touchdown.
The Eagles, led by Super Bowl MVP Jalen Hurts, defeated the Chiefs 40-22, with sportsbooks noting significant betting activity on the Eagles’ moneyline and Hurts’ MVP odds.
Nationally, the American Gaming Association estimated a record $1.39 billion in legal Super Bowl wagers, with other states like New Jersey also reporting substantial profits.
