Revenue from Nevada’s 69 poker rooms in the month of September was $8.34 million, according to figures released Thursday from Silver State gaming regulators.

The amount was a 1.52-percent increase compared to September 2014.

There were a combined 664 poker tables across the state this September, the fewest this year since the 652 in April.

Through the first nine months of 2015, poker revenue has increased year-over-year in four of the months, while dropping in five. Statewide poker revenue in Nevada for calendar year 2014 was $119,904,000, down from $123,891,000 in 2013.

May, June and July, the three months that include the annual WSOP, all had year-over-year revenue gains. They were 0.62, 4.46 and 0.59, respectively.

With three months left in 2015, Nevada poker revenue stands at roughly $91 million. Revenue from online poker is included in the figures, but those numbers aren’t released separately. The Silver State began online poker in mid-2013 and began sharing liquidity with Delaware this year.

The final three months of 2014 averaged $9.1 million in poker revenue, so overall poker revenue in 2015 is likely to be about the same as last year.

Here’s the breakdown of poker revenue this year so far:

January: $9,782,000
February: $8,530,000
March: $9,690,000
April: $8,511,000
May: $10,320,000
June: $15,840,000
July: $11,458,000
August: $8,510,000
