    what's the best sportsbook in vegas?

    looking for the best lines, thinking about putting in a future bet on the sb before the games start this weekend. which book (preferably on the strip) generally offers the best odds? I noticed my offshore is offering Giants to win the SB at +1500, the places I've seen so far here are only offering around +1000.

    1) Use the search function

    2) If you really want the best odds on the strip walk a loop from Palazzo to Wynn to TI to Mirage to Harrahs and bet the best line you see.

    3) If you're too lazy to do that, check out one of the Cantor shops at: Venetian, Palazzo, Tropicana, or Cosmopolitan.

    Mirage for me. We just stayed there the week and weekend of Christmas. Excellent book and friendly and knowledgeable tellers. We got comped $200 at the best steak house at the hotel based on our play one afternoon on the horses and football the day I asked my wife to marry me (she said yes). A good day, and about 3K profit.

    Yah the Hilton isn't on the strip, but it's considered the best for the most part.

    A better question would be to ask which Las Vegas book will NEVER limit you.

    No. It's way down by the ghetto part of the strip. And the book sucks.

    As far as odd's, forget about betting any futures in Vegas and bet offshore. Better odds and you won't be 1099G'd if you win.

    Its simple overhead, vegas sportsbooks take up a lot of valuable real estate and don't draw a lot of action many days.

    As far as best place to sit and watch a game or best of the worst, I liked Paris, Caesars, MGM and Mirage on the strip. Bills Gamblin House is small, minimal in luxuries, but a busy place. Finally, didn't get to Imperial Palace, but they used to be decent odds

    You could bet more than me in any Vegas book but I've only been barred from Coast and that was for arguing with a manager.
