    Vegas books claim profit is about 4%. Casinos would love to tear out books and put in slots.

    Vegas barely makes money at all off of sportsbetting...MAYBE accounts for 3-5% of their total revenue...MAYBE. Blackjack, craps, those other stupid ass table games people waste away their money on (3 card poker, carribean stud, etc, etc, etc) accounts for at least 95% of Vegas' revenue. This is fact.

    Slot machines account for most of the revenue

    Yes, I meant to include slots as part of that 95% as well. Vegas makes all their money off table games and slots, other than days like super bowl sunday or march madness their sports gambling revenues are miniscule.
