$400 billion? Wow. By my quick calculation, that's more than $1200 per person, including kids under 21, in gambling expenditure a year.https://twitter.com/DustinGouker/status/958744241303445506 …

David G. Schwartz added,
The $400 billion on handle has been floating around for awhile and has been reined in. The revenue figure is the bad/new part.
The AGA is part of the problem. Ex. A: Touting $4.76B in Super Bowl wagers based on the "methodology" of taking the debunked NGISC Report handle number and doing some magic. https://www.americangaming.org/newsroom/press-releasess/americans-wager-more-46-billion-illegally-super-bowl-52 …
I'll definitely be happy when we can stop having to estimate the illegal market, which is obv an inexact science. @EilersResearch has estimated it at $50 billion.
I trust @EilersResearch, and that $50B figure seems in line with what you could project from NV statistics. The problem is that all stakeholders (pro & con) benefit from touting a bigger number.
