Statewide Totals and Year-Over-Year Comparison

Data compiled for the month shows the overall revenue climb occurred even as individual games produced varied outcomes, and blackjack specifically accounted for $4.52 million across all reporting properties. The 7.5% year-over-year gain appears in official summaries released in early October 2026, giving analysts a clear baseline for tracking monthly performance against the previous September. Those who monitor these reports point out that blackjack revenue forms one slice of the broader gaming picture, sitting alongside table games and other offerings that together reached the $97.45 million mark.

Central City Performance Details

Central City emerged with distinct results during the same reporting window, recording a house hold percentage of 8.57% on blackjack action that reached a drop of $522,628. That hold figure sits at less than half the 18.27% recorded at the same location in September 2025, and the drop itself rose 55.5% from the prior year. Reports indicate the town added tables during the fiscal year, which coincided with the expanded drop volume and the compressed hold percentage.

Those reviewing the numbers note the combination of higher drop and lower hold produced a smaller share retained by the house, a pattern that stands out against the statewide blackjack revenue total of $4.52 million. The September 2026 statistics from Central City also reflect the presence of additional tables that operators brought online earlier in the fiscal period, a change that directly preceded the reported increase in drop.

Context Around Table Additions and Drop Volume

The addition of tables in Central City occurred ahead of the September reporting cycle, giving the property more capacity to accommodate the 55.5% rise in drop to $522,628. Observers who track monthly filings note that expanded table counts can influence both the volume of play and the resulting hold percentages when player results vary. In this instance the hold fell to 8.57%, a level that contrasts with the 18.27% posted twelve months earlier and that contributed to the overall statewide picture without altering the $4.52 million blackjack revenue figure reported across Colorado.

Revenue summaries released in October 2026 place these Central City outcomes alongside the broader 7.5% statewide increase, allowing direct comparison of local performance against the $97.45 million total. The drop growth and hold compression remain tied to the single month of September 2026, with no extension into subsequent periods included in the initial release.

Reporting Timeline and Data Sources

Official summaries for September 2026 reached public view in October, following standard procedures used by the Colorado Division of Gaming for monthly revenue releases. The figures for total gaming revenue, blackjack contribution, and Central City hold percentages all trace back to those summaries, which list the 8.57% hold, the $522,628 drop, and the 55.5% year-over-year change in drop as part of the same dataset. September 2026 statistics further detail the addition of tables during the fiscal year and the resulting shift in house hold from the 18.27% recorded in September 2025.

Conclusion

The September 2026 data package therefore presents a clear snapshot: statewide revenue reached $97.45 million with blackjack at $4.52 million, while Central City posted an 8.57% hold on $522,628 in drop after adding tables earlier in the fiscal year. These elements sit together in the same monthly report released in October 2026, providing a self-contained record of performance without reference to later months or additional locations.
