Virginians wagered $295.2 million on sporting events in June, according to a report released today by the Virginia lottery.
The June 2022 figure was 25 percent than the total wagered in June 2021.
Bettors won a total of $269.3 million, according to the report.
Through the end of June, bettors have wagered a combined total of $5.6 billion on a wide variety of approved sporting events since regulated sports wagering began in January 2021.

State law places a 15 percent tax on sports betting activity based on each permit holder’s adjusted gross revenue, which is defined as total wagers minus total winnings and other authorized deductions.
