The distance between first and second tightened — almost every other seat stayed put.
Blask’s global CEB (Competitive Earning Baseline, projected revenue) for July–September 2026 came in at $59.1B, 2.1% below April–June. The top gambling brands accounted for about 22% of that total, the same share as the three months before.
Bet365 stayed first on the quarterly sum, and its gap with FanDuel narrowed from $102M in Q2 to $48M in Q3.
September reversed the pair: second place finished the month at $651M and the leader at $619M, the only time in the six months that the order flipped.
DraftKings was the only name in the top four to grow, and the gap to Bovada shrank from $201M to $89M, while Betano rose 4% and stayed fifth.
The first seven finished in the same order as Q2, even as Rainbet fell 14%, the sharpest move in the ten. 1xBet passed Stake, from $7M behind to $20M ahead.
Global demand is still converting into projected revenue at these brands, with the next names in line left where they were the quarter before.
