How does one make a Larget bet in Vegas books? Week 1 NFL 49ers

[xelemental]

Hey guys,

Im not a big sports better.
I use to be years ago but stopped and just played poker when I gamble.

I'll be going to Vegas this weekend (week 1 of the NFL) and wanted to wager a big sum of money.

Now this is a lot of money for me. Maybe not to some of you but to me its a lot.

What is the best way to make a bet without having any taxes involved with the casino books?
Also what is the best website that shows the casino's odds so I dont have to walk into each one to compare.

I plan on putting down at least 3k for Niners -4.5

I dont know a local nor do I want to get involved with one. just the casino books that is all.

[RealSlimShady]

None of the books will blink at a 3k NFL wager. There's no taxes, etc involved. Just win the bet buddy! Good luck

[Brock Landers]

LVH will take huge bets without blinking

:Pay:

Thank you Xelemental, Good Luck...

[Big Bear]

[xelemental]

oh ok. Thanks ya'll. hahaha I guess 3k isnt much. I'll post up a pic of my pick.

Xel, don't listen to these guys, half are undercover FBI the other half love to laugh at a guy getting beatdown in the middle of a sportsbook.

You need to hit up AT LEAST 7 books and bet spread your bet around, to throw them off what I would do is bet $1500 on SF and then the other half bet on Packers, that way they won't know what's going on.

[downsouth]

I like the play. Good luck

[BennyBigNuts]

Cantor or LVH will take a bet like that and look at it as pennies for opening week.
Won't even need approval.

Most importantly, make sure you get down at the best number possible, bet it at that venue, as stated, most every book in the city will take a 3k NFL wager so find or ask where the best number is........................if you ask in this thread, there are many that can point you to the best line at the proper venue in the city.

LV Hilton will take it all !! But smart way to do it is NOT to bet more than 1000 dollars in one book !! So what I would do is go to 4-5 books at big hotels like - MGM , Wynn , LV Hilton , Planet Hollywood , Hard Rock , and spread the money !! And I would go to this hotels ONLY that I named here - because they are NOT associated with each other and that is very important !!! There is a reason why I'm telling you this - [ think ] !!!! and good luck to u !! I live here in Las Vegas !!

3k is nothing to the books in Vegas. They will look at you like it is the most routine transaction ever. Nothing to worry about.

Protip - make sure you act like you've done it before by avoiding these two amateur mistakes: (1) do not *bet* $3000. Bet *to win* $3000. So in the case of a -110 bet, bet $3300 to win $3000. And (2) do not ask for the bet by name, i.e. do not walk up to the counter and say "I'd like to bet on the 49ers -4.5 please." Use the number on the board that corresponds to the wager you would like, in this case 476.

BOL.

and if he indeed comes to the counter and say :"I'd like to bet $3000 on the 49ers -4.5 please"....what difference would that make?

[Russian Rocket]

xelemental just find the best line and bet your 3Gs whichever way you wish

Shady are you an Arab?

[UntilTheNDofTimE]

For the people who have bet and won a decent amount at a Las Vegas sportsbook what is the winning amount that triggers a W2-G to be signed before cashing out. That's what the OP is basically asking. We all know the casinos won't blink at 3k but that isn't his question. I play a lot of poker and the amount for a W2-G being necessary in a poker tournament is over 5,000 won.

no difference whatsoever

First of all, if you go to the counter and say the name of the team you want to bet on, the person behind the counter will automatically know they are dealing with a noob. You never say the team name. It's annoying for the counter person because they have to turn around, read the board and pull the number for you.

Then, if you do say the team name, the person will be even more shocked to see that you are betting $3K. An amateur throwing down $3K?? WTF??

Always get the number first. Lets say San Fran is 224.

If you are taking the money line, you say "224 money line". They will ask for how much. Then say $3000 and lay the money down. If you don't specify money line they automatically assume you are taking the spread.

If you are taking the spread, you say "224". For how much? $3000 and lay it down.

[crustyme]

dont say to win 3 dimes unless you are laying $3300.

ive seen many people say to win and not have enough to cover the bet and hold up the line.
