Matt Schuffert Credits Diverse Factors for Hard Rock Casino’s Impressive November Win
According to data released on December 12 by the IGC, Hard Rock Casino Northern Indiana reported a substantial win of $37.2 million in November, showcasing a notable 5.1% increase compared to the same period in 2022 when it raked in $35.4 million.
The Gary-based gaming, dining, and entertainment destination not only maintained its stronghold but also contributed significantly to the state’s overall casino win, accounting for nearly 20% of the $190.8 million total revenue for November 2023.
Matt Schuffert, president of Hard Rock Casino Northern Indiana, attributed the ongoing success to a combination of factors, reported The Times of Northwest Indiana.
Schuffert remarked that the continued growth, driven by a robust entertainment calendar, new gaming products, and seasonal food and beverage menus, is truly remarkable.
Hard Rock’s dominance extended beyond the slot machines, where it boasted a state-leading play totaling $253.6 million and a win of $25.8 million. This performance surpassed the figures from November 2022, where the casino recorded $23.3 million in slot wins on $235.5 million in play.
Notably, the Gary casino also led the state in table game play, primarily baccarat, with an impressive $48.6 million, securing the top spot in table wins with $11.4 million.
To put this achievement into perspective, more money was wagered at Hard Rock’s table games in November than the combined tables of the three other Northwest Indiana casinos, totaling $40.6 million.

Other major players, such as Ameristar Casino in East Chicago and Blue Chip Casino in Michigan City, also saw declines of 13.3% and 3%, respectively.
Meanwhile, the popularity of sports wagering among Hoosiers reached new heights, with the statewide online and retail sports wagering handle reaching $513.7 million in November, compared to $452.3 million in the same period in 2022. As the year draws to a close, Hard Rock Casino Northern Indiana remains optimistic, with plans to conclude 2023 on a high note, featuring a free New Year’s Eve concert on their Hard Rock Café stage headlined by Sugar Ray.
