Vegas Sportsbooks!

I put bets in at either ceasars or bellagio. But i always watch the games at bellagio. Just your preference where you feel comfortable and if your line shopping.

**beermankirk** · 09-04-10, 06:18 PM

what are the current rules on what to wager to get free drink tickets. It drastically changed on my last visit. Had to wager $100 at MGM for 1 ticket.

**teaserpleaser** · 09-04-10, 06:44 PM

How does that drink ticket thing work sounds like a drag. I guess people not betting just sitting in the books drinking without action killed it?

**GetPaid10** · 09-04-10, 06:57 PM

Im really not concerned with the drinks just with which sportsbook i can go to to wager the most money on a single game, which book has the best line, least amount of problems cashing out, which book I can buy points for the NBA and NFL (3 pts) and which book has the best treatment for those who want to wager in excess of 10k on a single game. Thanks for your help.

**SHADYLANKY** · 09-04-10, 07:42 PM

Get ready for some paper work on anything over 10K. You have no worries getting paid on any bet you get down at the big properties on the strip. If you stay at the hotel and play the tables and the sportsbook managers don't know you, then you should be able to bet fairly big(higher than limits posted). Unless you start kicking there ass then it will change. But if you go out for a week it won't matter. If you live there or are moving there I'm not familiar with the current limits. But like other posters said, Bellagio,MGM,Caesars,Hilton(Aria?) probably have the highest limits.

bellagio drinks are free. no tickets necessary. thats not why i watch there tho. but it doesnt hurt. very comfortable place. u need drink tickets for ceasars. u can only get them when placing wagers.

You are wagering 10k per game but have never been to vegas.

good info thanks my man

**clarkd32** · 09-04-10, 11:16 PM

I think some sportsbooks (Hilton and Imperial Palace?) open up the showrooms and put a bunch of big screen tv's in there for NFL Sunday.

If you need drink tix you might be better off making a few horse wagers and then ask the teller...

**GetPaid10** · 09-05-10, 12:02 PM

Just for the record forum I do not drink so the drink tickets are really not a concern to me at all just making money on these games. And if I ask something in here wrong or you guys dont understand just ask me and I will do my best to explain it better, im really just trying to get some advice about vegas sportsbook before i go out there, but i do know about the games and lines Im not foreign to that just want to maximize my profits and brxbmbers what diff. does it make if this is my first time out to vegas or not, if they would let me bet more I would trust me, we all spend what we can i dont think a dollar amount should really matter im sure somebody in this forum has wagered that amount if it applies to you then good im all ears if not and you still want to give advice on what you know make it the best advice bc we are here to help each other. And if its anything i can help you with just ask and if I cant i will try and point you in the right direction. And remember GET PAID!

I love las vegas casinos and s`pecialy poker...

**patswin** · 09-07-10, 08:30 AM

Stayed at the M recently, would highly recommend the sportsbook
Top notch. Its off the strip in Henderson

**msubulldog** · 09-07-10, 11:30 AM

on the strip harrah's and mgm mirage opoerate most of the sportsbooks except for wynn and a few others and lines will be same at almost every site. like earier poster said if you wager big be prepared to fill out paperwork; might go a little smaller and make several wagers.

good luck

**melia26** · 09-07-10, 04:26 PM

Most places will chart you over 3. Over 10 you need to submit your information.

Are you saying one of the smaller/lesser known books may not pay you...?

**chipper** · 10-04-10, 12:18 AM

It's off the beaten path but I really like the sportsbook at the Santa Fe Station. Just my 2¢...

**BudMan'sTopPlays** · 10-06-10, 08:03 PM

Hilton Ceaser's or Bellagio.... I have a question for all those on the forum though? On my next trip to Vegas what sportsbooks can I go to where all the locals hang out? The ones that aren't tourist traps.

**jpete1966** · 10-06-10, 08:49 PM

go to Southpoint Casino. You should find a large assortment of local degenerates there. The betting windows are about 2 football fields long to cover all the $5 bets.

Do casinos give comps for sports bets?

The M or any of Stations casinos. Orleans is another. I stayed there last year for a work conference, and I've never seen lines that long anywhere. Sunday morning was absolutely slammed.

Station Casinos for Non-Tourist traps Sportsbooks. I usually go to the Red Rock Station. Orleans, Suncoast both decent though. Dollar Buds, Dollar Hotdogs at station casinos. Good atmosphere at the Red rock. Cheering, screaming, etc. Good crowd too, always end up chatting sports/hcing with some randoms. Very far away from the strip though.

**SaviorTebow** · 10-09-10, 09:39 PM

Off strip properties have the best books.

-M Resort
-Red Rock (Station)
-Santa Fe (Station)
-and of course the Hilton.

Strip books are too crowded IMO with mediocre lines & parking is always a hassle on strip.

Some do, but they're minimal. IIRC Stations gives $1 per $500 in wagers, but they're doing a promo now where parlays and some other high juice bets have 6-10X comps. Harrah's comps starting at $200 bets. I don't know if Harrah's gives you reward credits for betting in their book, but they will give you tons of promos if you bet there somewhat heavy. Pretty much any book will comp you "drink tickets" which entitle you to a free drink per ticket.

**szk1983** · 10-09-10, 11:24 PM

truth is, even though you're gonna be in vegas, you should leave your sportsbetting to offshore. You will get much better lines. For instance, most vegas books has 20 cent lines on baseball, which is awful, and there certainly isn't any reduced juice on any of the other sports.

This is absolutely correct. Las Vegas has the worst odds and the least amount of betting options compared to any offshore book. The only thrill of betting at a Vegas book is that you get to cash your ticket in right away if it wins. There have been times I've had a $3,000 ticket in my wallet and it is not a good feeling having that much $$ on a piece of paper. Use the multiple internet kiosks around the strip to place your bets and use the sportsbooks strictly for watching.

Actually, Baseball lines at Station Casinos, Hilton, M Resort are traditionally 10 cent lines. Very comparable to most major online books, if not better. Plus there is no hassle in cashing out. Never had a problem cashing tickets in Vegas. The last thing I would want would be dealing with some Mickey Mouse offshore operation trying to stiff me. Never had a problem getting drink tickets at stations, even with small wagers (50ish bucks). You just have to ask the writer and he will give you a couple.
