    Curious about Betting Limits (Vegas and Online)

    Hi, I’m new to the forum. I’m trying to gauge the best way to bet on college and pro football. I’ve been recreationally playing college and pro games for a few years with online accounts, local bookies, and the occasional trip to vegas. I’ve never laid more than $220 on a game to date, but I’ve gotten increasingly sophisticated with my modeling and I’m ready to do this for real. I intend to play football lines almost exclusively – and to try to make a living doing it. I know how daunting this will be, so I am approaching the task with eyes wide open.

    If I were to go to Vegas every weekend, what kind of action could I consistently get in the best casino sportsbooks? I’m not only talking about big games, but any game. Could I bet $5k on football spreads? I'm not talking about one time – I’m talking about every weekend.

    I currently live in California. Is there a way that I can call in bets to vegas? What if I set up an LLC in Vegas and had a local phone number there?

    I expect the overwhelming suggestion to be that I need to get some online accounts, but I’m nervous about the amount of money that I would be depositing and the riskiness of the deposit/withdraw transactions. What kind of limits do the best online books offer over the long term (let's assume/hope i'm a winner)?

    Yes, I intend to pay taxes.

    Thanks for the help!

    You can't call in bets to Vegas
    but if you make a bet there and win you can mail your ticket from home
    alot of ppl in Vegas have apps w the sportsbooks
    maybe you can download the app and get it setup while down there and then continue to place bets from Cali?
    Idk just speculating

    Open up an online account with CG or William Hill. Then you just need to drive across the border to make your bets.
