    Vegas Advice
    Good Afternoon Gentlemen,

    Just seeking some general Vegas advice, as I haven't been there in 5 years, and just kind of stumbled around back then.

    I'm staying at the Wynn Sunday through Wednesday, and will likely spend a good majority of the time in the Sportsbooks. I'll likely bet a few hundred a game or so, and would like to at least drink and possibly eat for free. Anywhere specific I need to be checking out?

    Thanks in advance.

      sportsbook comps for us regular guys are tough these days

      cant help with Wynn

      believe 'Total Rewards' program from caesars/harrahs properties is the best for us

        you do not eat for free betting a couple of hundred a game

        Try maybe $5000 and up at most books

        No comps Wynn

        Stations Properties bet $10,000 in Sports with card get $10 in dollars and that is real generous

        Drink tickets easy betting a couple of hundred

                  tip

                  if you're betting 2 or more games starting at the same time...

                  place them individually a few mins apart - ask for drink tickets each time if not offered

                    Playing $50.00 a hand in black jack, I am happy just to get a line pass for the buffets so I won't have to wait 90 minutes.

                      Well I'll scrap free food......no big deal.

                      More or less I want to know that if I drop $1,000 in a day, that I can at least drink my sorrows at away at no cost.

                      I'm staying at Wynn, but would like to bounce around and check out a good number of books on the strip while I'm there.....I don't anticipate old Vegas, which a few of the suggestions were for.....should have clarified that.

                              If you haven't been I would recommend going to Westgate's super book. They just remodeled last year and the place is the meca of all sports books in Vegas.

                                    Well your certainly staying at the right hotel.

                                    Unfortunately one of the worst Sportsbooks, (in terms of customer appreciation).

                                    If you say what kind of bettor you are and a little more for what your looking for I can help


                                    Little tip-

                                    Every book post their hours at 8am-10pm, however football season, Saturday & Sunday, all books open at 7am, and your going to want to be in there on line at 7am, Sunday's are shit-show's.

                                    Opening a mobile app at one of the books, your first day here, will me a great move, you can easily cash out on the app before you leave McCarron, and keep the app on your phone for your next visit, (account will still be active, just can't log-in outside of Nevada).

                                        My advise.. Pound the winners.


                                        Oh, and if you come across a bald headed prick, kick him square in the nuts.

                                          Westgate will give you 2 drink tickets per $100 risked, if your that guy

                                          Then you can buy a $22 hamburger at their cafe.

                                              All of the books are far more generous to race players than sports players. If you make a couple small horse bets and keep the tickets in front of you they will just keep bringing you drinks. Probably be a good idea to grab a racing form as well to sell it a little more. But bet the fav or 2nd choice to show in a couple races with small fields and you might not lose any $$$.

                                                  Best advice in thread. If you are really worried about paying for drinks, go buy a bottle of the booze of your choice and make your own drinks in book.

                                                        Im sure Im annoying some of yall, but trying to get the best experience possible, without wandering around aimlessly on the strip.

                                                        Anymore tips and tricks from some you Vegas regulars?

                                                              My advice go to all of the sports books on strip. Real trip the different styles and clientele IMO.

                                                              Have fun
