Mass-market baccarat generated MOP3.44 billion (US$425.5 million) in Macau in the three months to September 30, which was 62.0 percent of all casino gross gaming revenue (GGR) for the quarter.
The figure was down 32.3 percent quarter-on-quarter, according to data released on Monday by the city’s casino regulator, the Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau. In year-on-year terms, mass-market baccarat fell by 67.4 percent.

Third-quarter slot machine revenue was MOP511 million, a market share of 9.2 percent.
Aggregate revenue in the overall mass-market segment – including slot machines – stood at just below MOP4.40 billion, accounting for a share of nearly 79.2 percent of Macau’s second-quarter casino GGR
