    How does vegas sports betting operate?
    Do you have to go to the casino to place your bets, can you phone them in? Does each casino have different Juice lower/higher, whats the deal with that, and do you have to be in vegas to be able to bet? Could you just phone in your bets or anything?

    From my research on this, there is a phone system in Nevada that you can use, however you must be a resident of Nevada and you must be calling from Nevada. The limit, from what I remember, is around $150 and I believe that limit is for the whole day or something like that. I know there has been talk about updating the system and such. You can find more information about it searching the web, but I remember thinking it really isn't worth the effort. Unless of course you just wanted a little action on something and you were an extremely recreational bettor.

      from my exp.. in vegas i would say they prefer face to face action.... yes some books have it where you can set up a house account, also if you bet more than 10000 in a day your info is sent to the irs.... they ask for your Id and all.... but i love vegas....
