    First time going to vegas in a few weeks

    I really just need one question answered. I plan on placing a huge 4-5 grand wager when I get there, and here is what I want to know.

    If I do that at a major sportsbook/hotel, will they comp me a room or rooms for multiple days?

    I want to know this because I don't want to reserve a hotel on priceline or orbitz or something when I could just be getting free rooms for placing that wager.

    Do you guys, who are probably more experienced, know for sure if I will get a free room for this kind of action?

    And I appreciate and understand if some here don't like me as a poster but this is a valid question and a valid concern and not something I could possibly know without going or hearing from others who have done something similar, so please offer some advice.

    Okay, good to know. I'll just book the trip on priceline then. They are dirt cheap for the week I'm going for some reason. Can get a 4 star for like 35 bucks a night.

    I'm more worried about the bet. I know the dates I'm going so I'm already sure what my bet is going to be, as long as the line is in my range... Thanks for the best wishes JJ, you're a good guy to have around this board.

    Gotta see a line before I confirm anything obviously, but the week I'm going, the Bears are playing God's gift to football, Tim Tebow.

    If the line is what I expect, I'll be all over the Bears. Think they are a god awful match-up for the offense that the Broncos have to run with Tebow.

    But a lot could happen until then, so the line could be pretty far off from what I expect.

    Give Bronxer a pm big ten. The guy works down there on the strip handing out the porn mags. He might be able to hook u up with a room at the local mission in Vegas.

    I have a couple friends who like to drink that sh!t occasionally. One normally drinks Guinness so I really don't get it. They both can afford whatever they want. They say it reminds them of college etc. They bought three of them when I was out there in Sept and I took one sip and threw mine away.

    A 5K wager will get you about 7 drink tickets.

    Good luck

    I'm not doubting you but don't plan on HUGH room comps for a 5K bet.

    I've never been, I had no idea what to expect, so I'm glad I started this thread. Won't expect anything now.
