    The only place I know that absolutely will get you hammered for free for any sports bet is the Flamingo. Tip the girl $10 on the first drink and she'll hustle for you as long as you want.

    Sportbooks/Casinos are smart to give free drinks. It's +EV for them

    For people with money in there pocket yes. However, there sportsbook started to get overrun with guys making a $10 and him and a group of buddies sitting there drunk all day without a dollar to there name. Also, taking up space for potential folks wanting to come in with cash.

    You can get drink tickets for small(er) wagers at Flamingo, Imperial and Bally's books. Just remember, during march madness, the lineups at the books are ridiculous!! IP is probably the easiest for tickets and you can bring the tickets down to the bar on the main casino floor.

    At most of the casinos, they will give you a free drink ticket after you place a bet....but you must ask for it. I know that at Stations casinos they will give you a free drink ticket for every bet you place.

    At most sportsbooks in Vegas, the drink girl walks around frequently and you can order for free....especially if you are playing the horses.

    The nicest sportsbook in town is at the Palazzo. LAGASSE'S STADIUM – BAR, BOOK & BAM!

    They don't give free drinks though...

    Every time i bet at Caesars at least $100 i would get 2 and sometimes 3 free drink tickets. Harrahs also gave me some. When you go place your bet you can see the stack of tickets the ticket writer has next to him. So if you see alot you know alot of them are going to be given away.

    If you are scamming drink tickets here is what to do.

    Break up your bets. Even though its suppose to be like 100 min at some places for a drink ticket most tellers will give you at least one for almost any size wager. If you make 6 seperately placed $50 bets you will probably get more tickets then betting 300 at once.
    If the waitress service is taking a while just politely order 2 drinks at once i don't think they are suppose to give you 2 drinks at once but they have for me in the past just tip the waitress a a few bucks.

    When i play blackjack I always tip the waitress $2 and when i'm up $5, I have never taken advantage of a free drink in vegas. But that cool if you wager a few hundred to get drink tickets in a sportsbook

    No...there's not.

    You think sitting in a wooden cubicle is better than anywhere inside Legasse?? Get real...

    Here's the Wynn sportsbook:



    WOW. Looks like fun??

    Here's the Bellagio..



    Here's Legasse..



    You can also get a private room with multiple TV's and watch anything you want. Just buy drinks and your good to go.

    When I was in Vegas, they gave out drinks at Caesar's. Hilton didn't. Not sure about others.

    Was there last month. Bet the horses and almost everyone gives you drinks. Bellagio just had to see you had a bet ticket, although while I was watching a game a guy came buy and talked to me for a while and he got free drinks without even betting. Wynn minimum was $200. Palazzo didn't seem to give out free drinks at all, but was nice and has awesome (but overpriced) wings if you're looking for a meal. Caesars I was there during the day time but got free drinks while I bet horses. Rio i bet horses and small sports bets and got free drinks the whole time. Aria I didn't get free drinks at all.

    If you're looking mainly to get free drinks and make smaller bets Bellagio is my suggestion. If you're playing big enough bets go to the Wynn. If you're anywhere else try to bet some horses.
