TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - Revenue at Florida's casino and poker tables is growing, but lottery revenue is flat and race and sports wagering are declining, according to the publisher of an annual gaming almanac.

The 2008 North American Gaming Almanac ranks Florida sixth nationwide in gaming-industry revenue, with $3.7 billion in 2007. That's a 5.4 percent increase from 2006.

According to the report released today, gaming revenue at Florida tribal facilities increased 2.3 percent from 2006 to 2007, to $1.6 billion. The report also said casino and card game revenue rose 379 percent, to $274 million.

But the stakes weren't as high for other kinds of gambling. Racing at horse and dog tracks and other sports wagering declined 43 percent, to $159 million.
