Mashantucket, Connecticut (AP) 11-09

Connecticut's two casinos say slot machine revenue dropped about 4 percent in October compared with the same month last year.

The Mashantucket Pequot tribe, which runs Foxwoods Resort Casino and MGM Grand at Foxwoods, reported during mid-November that slot revenue for October totaled $54.8 million, down from $57.1 million in October 2008.

The Mohegan tribe, which operates Mohegan Sun, said it took in $62.9 million from its slot machines, down from $65.4 million from October 2008.

Compared with September's slot revenues, Foxwoods and MGM Grand earned nearly the same in October, while Mohegan Sun saw about a $3.5 million, or 6 percent, increase.

Both casinos give the state 25 percent of their slot machine revenues, under their gaming compacts.
