    Sportsbetting has no volume for the house. Games take hours whereas a blackjack hand takes 30 seconds. All about that rollover and -EV on -EV play repetition.

    You bet $500 on a baseball game, takes 3 hours. House expected to make like $10-$20 off your bet. If you go to blackjack table and bet $25 for 2 hours, their expected take is well over $100.



    Had a funny convo with a host about month or two ago. Asked him if he heard if sportsbetting was coming soon, he said I hope not. Asked why, he said he'd rather have his players at the pits, not betting games.

    Once the games are over and they're stuck they'll run to the pits to "try and get even." Vice versa they may blow their sportsbook winnings in the Pit. I see poker players do this all the time.

    Boy we used to eat fat as Total Rewards diamond members not that long ago.

    But like everything in Vegas, they started nickel and diming away the Diamond club meals. Took a while for that to bleed to Lake Tahoe, but once it did we went from a full on meat time buffet style spread to a still nice gig, but a little less real food and more snack type stuff.

    But if you're like me, there's no problem living on clam chowder and taquitos...lol.

    No Diamond club breakfast hours but it's easy to earn enough credits to get breakfast nearly daily with a proper video poker run, you might even get paid during the run.

    As a backup, you can always take fruit and peanut butter cookies from the night before and put in the fridge in the room.

    That's +EV...

    Something else to think about most people don’t need three full meals a day so that fact will help with making this possible - free meals

    Ya I don't eat breakfast, have a medium sized lunch and dinner. I don't really care about food like most people. The older I get the more people just talk about FUGGIN food.

    I'm into Bourbon, blow and tail.

    I made a thread last year about the best things/secrets in Vegas (had not been there in many years)

    9/10 suggestions on here were food places

    penetrate your food. Where are the hoes, blow and best clubs.

    Even my side pieces never shut up about food even though they are skinny.

    I think it's my ****** up tongue idk.

    People are just obsessed with eating

    Yeah. I remember when I was placing bets in excess of $500 at Planet Hollywood a few years ago. I asked the guy if he needed my players club card for points and he laughed at me. He said it would amount to nothing and wouldn't be worth it.

    Meanwhile, when I'm playing at the $15 blackjack tables I'm racking up the points and being fed cocktails like crazy. Your logic makes perfect sense.
