Vegas Sportsbook's

Im sure it is a ton of people in here that has been to vegas and used one on the million sportsbooks they have to offer, my question is, does anybody have any advice as to which one is the best to use I know this will all be a matter of opinion but im going out for the first time and I cant seem to get any of my questions answered on the phone from any of the sportsbooks so I thought why not ask the world we talk about sports in here heck it seems it a conversation on just about everything in here. So any and all advice would be greatly appreciated, the sportsbooks, VIP's, wager limits,  High Roller spots anything you guys can think of. I want to thank all of you for your time and help. And remember GET PAID

Paid...

First off, sportsbooks are not allowed, by law, to provide anyone with betting information...whatever that may be...over the phone.

If you would like to make correct use of this forum, you need to pose exact questions that we can answer. A "laundry list" of things that you would like to learn will not help you...especially if you have absolutely no idea what it is you are asking about.

Happy to help you...but let's take "baby steps" first...OK?

In my experience, I've enjoyed the book at Mandalay Bay the best. However, my opinion on this comes from wanting a good book to view the games and just party and have fun... not for some of the more technical reasons you list in your inquiry.

Caesar's and MGM are also great! Oh, and if you'd like a good laugh please visit the book at Tropicana. Holy crap I just about died of laughter after asking a casino employee where the book was. It's literally a 30-person room, chalkboard with today's lines, and about eight 20" 1995 tvs. Helarious after spending the day in Mandalay's book.

 

Tropicana is owned by one of the cheapest biggest a-hole of a preson would ever meet. I used to work at a hotel that he owned that was in his non-casino division. Google the name Columbia Sussex and see if you can find the article(s) about their purchase of the Tropicana and then losing the New Jersey one to the state due to the union. I was surprised that Bill Yeung (the owner) did not end up swimming with the fishies if you know what I mean

Houston...

The new Trop book is gonna be run by Cantor Gaming.....the technology/gaming division of Cantor Fitzgerald.

They run The M, handle the ingame betting at The Venetian and The Pallazzo, gonna run the Hard Rock and the new Cosmopolitan. Before opening The M, they bought LVSC..Las Vegas Sports Consultants..the company that sends out the opening line recommendations.

They are the future (and the current) of sportsbook betting in Las Vegas.

Like the other guy said, you need to ask specific questions.

As for betting limits, unless you're talking about betting over $10,000 a game, I would suggest the Las Vegas Hilton SuperBook.  Hilton has the best sportsbook in Vegas as far as the amount of games and betting options they offer.  Plus their odds are usually among the best and their limits are pretty good.  The book itself is kind of old and not nearly as nice as some of the Strip places but what is more important to you.

If you are just looking for a place to place a few small bets and sit in the book to enjoy games, try one of the Strip places where you will be more comfortable.  Emeril Lagasse opened a sports "arena" type of thing in the Palazzo where they have food, great seating and places to bet.  Never went but it's supposed to be nice.

mandalay bay is good but smoky as hell and no free drinks, hilton or bellagio for me

The LV Hilton is ok.

I really like the Bellagio, the Bellagio is first class all the way!
