Colorado in a blow out
Nebraska blows
That's what the vig (10%) is about. Then there's parlays, teasers. Lots of ways for the book to make money and legitimately pay winning tickets. There is smart money as well, but all that means is there are large wagers on one side. Sometimes they're right, but sometimes wrong. That's why it's gambling. They also post how much the books in the Nevada casinos made. Sometimes they make a lot, other weeks the player won.

Banks make trillions on a annual interest rate of 2-3%. Books make 10% on every game in 2.5-3 hours. Basic simple math tells you why its almost impossible to beat a 10% vig/juice/rake/take or what ever you want to call it.
Where it is even more impossible to turn a profit is the online books that have -115 or higher lines. The biggest scam is the live lines that are as high as -120 both ways. No one can sustain that insane rake/take over any period.
Why do you think they offer 100% match and all kind of gimmics knowing they need you to simply play and grind you out of you funds.

You are correct as the bells and whistles still get the seniors monthly checks at the brick and mortar locations.
I do hope the competition allows for some really low juice locations like Pinnacle sports. They are a class act and a real gamblers friend with little fluff on bonuses but great low juice on many games. Problem is the greed in most U S sports books will not allow this to happen easily.

The retail hold for Nevada in 2022 was 8.8%, with $248.2 million collected from $2.8 billion wagered.
The average Sportsbook hold in the state of Nevada, has been anywhere from 6 to 8% as long as I can remember.
