LOS ANGELES, June 10 (Reuters) - Gamblers lost $415.3 million at casinos in Atlantic City in May, 1.6 percent more than than the same month a year earlier, New Jersey's gambling regulator said on Tuesday.

The 11 casinos in the second-largest U.S. gambling market, including those owned by Trump Entertainment Resorts Inc TRMP.O and a joint venture between MGM Mirage (MGM.N) and Boyd Gaming Corp (BYD.N), won $289.6 million at slot machines and another $125.7 million at table games, the New Jersey Casino Control Commission said.

Slot revenue declined 1.5 percent while table revenues increased 9.5 percent, the regulator said.
