    Inside the building of the state-of-the-art Circa sportsbook

    Looks like a soon-to-be-classic coming to DownTown.

    Too bad the place will be empty a lot not an easy place to get to, plus the expansion of sports betting across the United States they’ll start to feel it as people will stay at home in their local sports books and save a lot of money


    Vegas does not have a strong hold on sports betting any longer it’s gone


    Also walk up sports book are a thing of the past 80% of bets are online and mobile

    JJ spot on. No real advantage to sports betting in Vegas except for CA residents. Only Las Vegas advantage is the limits. If you're sharp you can still get down 10k on a game unlike other US places.

    California is going to pass sports bettijg next year and it’s the end of Las Vegas as far as sports


    Why do you think all the books in New Jersey are going to be small they know it’s all mobile and/or Internet


    Most sports books in Las Vegas are empty 80% of the time

    Couple of big events here in there and the first few hours of Saturday and Sunday football season and that’s it

    I put down a measly $500 on an MLS game today at Circa and they acted like I was going to put them out of business.

    A few months ago, Stevens bragged that he was going to take any action from all bettors; he's lying his ass off.

    You def do not want to make large parlays in Vegas, they lower the payouts tremendously. Any online book will happily pay you true odds on your parlay, which for 15 teamer is still 37% house edge with 3% edge on 15 bets...Vegas greedy af.

    Cool looking board. I hope other casinos follow their act.
