CARSON CITY, Nev. (AP) — Nevada casinos won $11.1 billion in 2013 to mark a fourth consecutive year of gambling revenue gains fueled largely by a high-roller game and luck that favored the house, state regulators reported Friday.

The statewide win for the calendar year was up 2.6 percent over 2012. It was also the first time since 2008 that Nevada casinos topped $11 billion in gambling revenues, said Mike Lawton, senior analyst with the Gaming Control Board.
