    Review: Ocean Resort Hotel & Sportsbook Atlantic City

    Just back after a few days down in AC & wanted to share my experiences with both the hotel & sportsbook. With regard to the resort: just top notch. Rooms are amazing. Most have ocean views with floor to ceiling windows. 6 pools at the hotel and lots of bars & restaurants to pick from. With only being open a week you’d expect some hiccups with regard to service. All in all would highly recommend over both The Hard Rock & Borgota (unless you can get into The Water Club).

    Now the sportsbook.....I’d say if you can, wait a few more weeks to go. Still very small (only 3 windows open at any given time & very unorganized). 15-20 minute wait to place wager. When these pictures were taken on Friday all odds were a bit worse then 5Dimes (bet Phillies -114 Detroit-110 Yankees -148). Still lots of construction going on there so when finished it will be great. Bigger bar area. More TVs & seating areas. Also some VIP areas are going up top. Spoke briefly with the SB Manager & the plan is to have online wagers up & running in a month. Heading back down 1st week in aug so excited to see the progress.

    I was at the ocean resorts book today and the borgata book last night. They’re just temporary for now. Everything should be up and running by football season.

    Awesome job Philly. Will have to check it out. Nice to know East Coast bettors finally have a solid Plan B to Vegas when time is a consideration.

    So is White House in the Ocean or Hard Rock?

    I see dime lines available on baseball. Nice!

    I’ll be there in 13 days. Can’t wait to check out the new casinos.

    You don’t worry about the juice when you win!

    Did suck when I went up to cash my ticket I had to give them my account #, password & wait for a phone call to verify my withdraw

    Hey Philly..

    Thanks for sharing all your info on
    what’s going on in AC now.

    Much appreciated.

    I want to understand one thing you
    mentioned above.. correct me if I’m wrong.

    You have a winning ticket that you paid
    cash for at a window at the casino..

    You then took that winning ticket to
    one of the 3 windows currently taking bets
    and they would not cash the ticket unless
    you gave them more info on who you are
    acount# and password and a phone call
    had to be made???

    was the ticket worth over 10k?
    is this policy for all winning tickets?

    How can that policy work it will create
    huge waiting times at the windows.

    Verifying a win should be taking the ticket
    you got from a teller at a window going
    back to the teller after the game is official
    the teller scanning the ticket to make sure
    its legit then you get paid..no?

    This is going to create an INSANE amount of traffic, just watch.

    Especially when the Giants/Jets have a home game...

    re ac pics

    White House subs are at 2301 Artic Ave
    it may be theirs but Nothing Beats the White House speial $15.10
    Artic & Mississippi location from 1946
    the rolls are brought in fresh and warm from the baker with all the Celeb pics
    and Frank Sinatra's Towel

    The Steel Pier is half the size is was from the 1960's with the Ocean Ballroom and the High Diving Horse
    in the March 1961 Storm and fire after that it was never what is was

    Nevada has been Home to Sports Wagering since 1949 Vegas Reno Tahoe Laughlin
    24 hours at Southpoint Coasts Venetian(Cantor Gaming)
    All the people who are experienced in the business are in Nevada
    Nobody knows how it works in AC yet
    William Hill from UK who took over the Leroy's locations In NV is making an effort to get it up and running

    but the Real Player who bet over $50k per event
    could not operate in an environment where confusion reigns
    and 20 cent lines is out the question
