The racino at Aqueduct Racetrack is a hit with gamblers.

Resorts World Casino says it is raking in more money from slot machines than any other casino in the country.

The racino says its slots pulled in $57.5 million in May, beating out Mohegan Sun in Connecticut by more than $2 million.

It says it paid $40 million in taxes to New York State last month, with much of that money going to education.

The racino opened in October and has already generated more than $252 million in taxes for the state.
