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

[Russian Rocket]

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.

Ok they will think I'm a noob...Ok they will be in shock that I'm betting 3K on a team...and?
they still gonna take my money

Know the goddamn rotation number.

Don't be that asshole, who fukks me out of a halftime bet, because you couldn't grasp the fact that you needed to know a rotation number BEFORE getting to the goddamn window.

Or bet at midnight or someshit, when the lines are less important.

It's becoming impossible to get a bet down at a book these days, when time is of the essence.

for folks like myself who go there once a year things like that don't mean much...but I guess it's important for locals.

I really am raging due to my experiences with March Madness, which is my only guaranteed yearly trip to Vegas.

Makes me want to punch a child, when frat fukkers are taking pictures the entire time, because they're about to put down some student loan money and facebook it. Then they get to the window, and not even know who the shit they are betting on, goes on to ask who the guy behind the counter would bet on - which doesn't illicit a solid response. Then the asshat can muster the courage to murmur "$20 on Louisville to win", when they're goddamn -2000 favorites. To which, the guy behind the counter still can't place the bet, because you have to know the fukking rotation number.

Meanwhile, I just want to put $100 on a 2h wager - and have to see this scene repeat 10 different times before I get to the window, to see the action I want is closed.

Just to watch the rest of the game, see my would-be bet cash, and curse the pig-headed fukker who decided to not pull out 20 years ago so their fratboy \*\*\*\*\*\* son can "wild-out" in vegas.

yeah I gotcha...You have a full right to be pissed. Lucky me, I actually never been there during the "crazy" football betting time.

The Casinos should have different windows for bets exceeding $100 and then a set of other windows exceeding $1000...something like that. Would you not think the Casinos also want as much action as possible in that little of time?

[Dr Nostron]

Agree %100 - I missed a $1000 winner because some idiot in front of me took 10 mins to figure out how to bet his $50 spread over 2 games and the over/under.

And got pissed at me when I suggested maybe he let me go ahead.

Of course it was my own damn fault for oversleeping but still - having one window reserved for larger bets is a great idea.

[blowseq]

Very sharp line ! Good luck !

[PlatinumBerg]

3K is nothing, bet 3MM then you might get some attention.

a stupid fuk cost me $2k last year holding up the line for 30mins with his $10 bet.

[ChalkyDog]

Just have a goddamn sign saying you need a rotation number and betsize lined up before getting in line, or at least before getting to the window. If you don't, it's a big fat NEXT!

And dipshit goes to the back of the line.

You are hilarious dude. I sense so much anger...

[R.P. McMurphy]

Agree with Chalky! Unlike our government the sports books should not cater to the weak. If you are a dumbass and holding things up then to the back of the line you go. Having seperate windows is a good idea as well. Have 2 seperate ones ready for those betting over a hundred and another for the bigger hitters going ov a nickel. Most amateurs betting beer $ won't go over a $100 on a game anyway most of the time.

[SBR_John]

Like the Pack here. 4.5 is too many to spot Rodgers. The defense should hold its own. Looking for a close one.

[frogsrangers]

$3000 is nothing for books when it comes to the NFL but if you tried to do it for MLB some would turn you down.

I have seen a $1,000 plus only window at LVH.

[lakerboy]

Very sharp line ! Good luck !

agreed the line is shifting between 4-5. books know sf will win but the final is gonna be a close reflection of the spread

4.5 might cover but i think if you took gb you need 5.5

[R.P. McMurphy]

5.5 LB really? For all those infamous 23-18 type finals decided by 5 of course lol! If you like the Pack here and that lousy defense to keep this respectable anything over 4.5 should do.

game could be decided by 5 points.

[R.P. McMurphy]

It "could" and I could hit the next powerball haha! Chances of 5 is better than my lotto odds obviously but it's still a no man's land # not a key #. If I were getting 5.5 than buying the hook at 6 would make me feel a little better.

ever made a bet then all of the sudden a safety occurs?

[pavyracer]

Go 30 times and bet $100 at a time if they have a problem with a $3000 bet.

[crustyme]

game could be decided by 5 points.

5 pt margin of victory has the lowest probability between 1-7pt, dummy.

Go check last year's all 250 plus games and I would doubt any game was decided by 5 points exactly.

[Oteder]

Man these guys are a joke u need not try to be a pro and if u know not the number of the team so what! If they need to turn around everybody that bets in Vegas are not pros! I go to the sports book in the Venetian and gamble during Super Bowl and national championship every year I'm not a pro even though I win waaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy more then I loose. It's the person at the counter job to help u and also explain what u r betting how much u can win how much to bet etc! I promise nobody will be upset with u
