  • My opinion ( Las Vegas / sportsbooks)

    After a week in Las Vegas just like the Vegas posters told me I had no problem laying down some good size bets and actually met a old friend that is a manager of the sportsbook at Mandalay Bay. He tells me the scalpers/movers used to fill his seats on a daily basis and now it is dead in there sportsbook this time of year( except for Pete Rose who has been there for a few weeks )
    He actually took me out one night to a locals joint ( The orleans ) which I was shocked was so big and the buffet was one of the best I had in Vegas I just never heard of the place. Anyway he told me they would accept very large bets there and sure enough I bet a dime on a total and 2 dimes on a side with no problem except that they both lost.LOL
    I also put some dime wagers in at the stratosphere and they moved them 10 cents after I bet them but the manager remembered me from march madness and gave me a comp for 2 for the roxy's diner which was nice I thought. I did most of my betting in the Bellagio the seats there are very comfortable.Cannot believe I played craps with 100x odds (casino royale) .002 house advantage. So it seemed to me that no one cared if you bet it up out there and they actually had a bring it on attitude but of course I was just a tourist and do not know how it was a few months ago. Thanks again to the people who responded to my Vegas questions.

    Gotta love the casino royale.Any casino attached to Dennys is OK with me.There is no place else to play craps.A dollar and 100 behind is pretty sweet if you dont mind the local traffic.

      Krackman,

      Nice to hear you made it home safely. You were a big underdog, especially after that "Chamber of Commerce El Cortez recommendation" by D/Stlye.

      You would be surprised about certain wiseguy sports movers you'll find playing that craps prop. Casinos will gamble on table games(not BJ).
