Despite predictions two years ago, Singapore did not surpass the Strip as the world’s No. 2 gaming market in 2012.

And it might not happen this year, according to one gaming analyst.

The island nation’s two casinos produced $5.85 billion in gaming revenues in 2012, an 8 percent increase over 2011. That figure fell short of the $6.2 billion produced by the Strip’s more than 40 casinos.

Macau is the world’s largest casino market with $38 billion in gaming revenues in 2012.

Las Vegas Sands Corp. operates the Marina Bay Sands, which collected 2012 gaming revenues of $2.94 billion. Malaysia-based Genting, which owns Resorts World Sentosa Island, Friday reported $2.91 billion in gaming revenues, as part of the company’s fourth-quarter earnings announcement.
