        Many take big bets now

        Influx of Uk ownership has helped

        90% of gamblers will have no issues with betting limits

              A few months ago I spent hours shopping around for the best odds for a parlay and then was about to place about a 1,500 wager to win 180K and he said he would only take half of the bet (I think it was at Pink Flamingo or Paris?). I then proceeded to the Cosmo and got it in for 150K...the guys looked very nervous. 4 team underdog parlay bet in the playoffs the week the 9ers and Giants upset, Tebow got injured vs Pats, Texans lost because of the muffed punt.

                Back in the day, believe it or not, Barbary Coast had the best lines.
                What's it called today? Bill's Saloon or something?

                    Lines are comparable to offshore, just no reduced juice though.

                    LVH has comparable money lines to offshore reduced shops.

                    Cantor has high limits. That is where Mayweather gets his 100K+ bets down at.

                    Mobile Apps are becoming the latest thing. Right now WillHill (Leroys) and Cantor have Mobile Apps, and I heard Station's was coming out with one. I would love to see LVH come out with one.

                        Thats what I thought too after two rounds of NFL playoffs without a single upset. Hopefully they change their attitude come next year.

                          This thread is funny

                          Many here do not even have enough to make a minimum wager
