    The one time..
    The "Unknowing Idiot" saved me some money. You know, the guy that gets up to the window and does not know what the fcuk he wants to bet, and scans the board picking rotation numbers one by one until he fulfills his 7 team parlay.

    I got to the line at about 4PM PST and was 3rd in line, and was going to bet the Tribe if I got to the window. Well, the game went off the board before I could get up to make my bet. So I was rooting on them damn Yankees all game today.

    But seriously, they really need a "Express Lane", for straight bets only. It just pisses me off to no end these guys don't know who they want to bet before then get to the window. At least have the parlays wrote down that you want, so its fast and simple.

    This has happen to me on time at the track looker, and ever since then I always to the $50 windows. Thats about the closest thing to an express lane there.

          They don't have them.

          Some Leroys outlets have them, but those places are run down casinos.

          It happens at every book dodif. People just go up to the window not knowing what they want and pick and choose. They need to have a "quick picks" button. Like in lotto.

                That happened to me once at Phoenix Greyhound Park, but then it turned out my dog would have lost.

                      and i wanted to know what book because I have individual strategies for beating various sportsbooks lines depending on the sportsbook. Sure sometimes i get yelled at or blah blah but I get my bet in. I bet too much and too often in this town to have some local yokel ****ing up my bets. Glad it worked out for ya.

                        This was at Sams Town, but I have had it happen at Sunset Station, Green Valley Ranch, and a couple times at the LV Hilton.

                            Yes I know, but in this case, they weren't allowing sport wagers. That also pisses me off.
