well since harrah's owns like majority of all books in vegas strip i'd say u could hit 1 harrah's book, 1 station casinos book, 1 coast book, then a leroy's...all probably for a min. of 5,000...and that leaves a few indy books/downtown books

not sure on each's max...but usually u can get down atleast 5 dimes with no problem...think station might be 10k on ncaa and 15k on nba...but dont quote me on it....will check next time i'm there...harrah's will have the highest limits of the four...green dobermen will be able to give exackt amounts when he views this.

It was at the Wynn and on both CBB and NBA everytime i would walk up to the window i would try to bet a dime they said only a nickel and then would bring a superviser over and ok the nickel and then move the line.

why not bet offshore where you often only have to lay 105 instead of 110. vegas is for tourists and not serious sportsbettors.

With all the issues of moving funds to and from OS books...its beggining to make alot of people look to LV to get down on games..

it just seems that MAYBE one day soon ...someone who owns a sportsbook in LasVegas will realize how much $$ could be made booking bets in LV and start offering reduced juice and increase there volume in doing so....there could be a huge wave of sportsbettors willing to find away of betting in LV if someone would do this...because of all the US customers that are not willing to play the OS game anymore.. just a thought

Few years ago, they had Derby props...horse for horse and they had to call in to a manger to take a grand bet...Shouldn't be doing that when you are dealing a 15 cent line to begin with.

My buddy bet 25k at a Hilton in Reno as they told him no sense going property to property just bet it all here as The Hilton was tied into numerous property"s.

Kinda like how they are tied into the parimutal wagering for the horses same smell.

Sammy,
I'd say during March Madness 2 to 5k no problem. Anything else, they would make sure you were a rated player and were getting an honest number.
The limits differ depending on whether you are a sharp or a square.

Max Value,
Everything pales in comparison to offshore. What respect I have for books in town would be reserved for Richie at the Palms and Jay at the Hilton. This is coming strictly from a player perspective. You have to remember the book is merely a small cog in the corporate machinery and all of them have their hands tied.
