Is it possible to move to Vegas and do nothing but gamble?

Heard people there won't let you do this, even if you play by all the rules. Kind of like the movie 21 where they were counting cards and got in a lot of trouble. What if you had an office where you and some people did research all day and then placed the bets at casinos? How long would they let this go on?

Sure.  There are professional sports bettors in Vegas that do exactly that. 

I live in Vegas and have no idea why they would stop you. Unless you are betting enough to raise eyebrows on a daily basis, you are more than capable of doing it.

Why would you move to vegas to do this.  You can do this anywhere in the world.

Nobody likes living in Vegas. Great place to visit. But, it gets old fast!

They don't take credit cards at the sportsbook.

 

Let's see some of your picks and I will let u know if u can survive in Vegas or not...

CGGGGGGG!!!!

Thanks for the responses.  I know you can do this anywhere in the world but there are drawbacks to doing that.  I guess I should make a trip there before I decide if I want to do this.  

Casinos will absolutely let you go out there and set up office to lose all your money.  In fact, they wish you could set up for longer with more money so they get paid more but the fact is that you are going to go broke in only a few months and leave town with your tail between your legs.

I disagree with that statement. have lived in Las Vegas since 1990 and, although it is NOT as good as "the good old days" of the $5 buffet and dollar beers thru the early 90's now, it is STILL one of the better places for a relatively low cost of living and 24 hour entertainment. NO state income tax and LOW property taxes. utilities and food prices are also lower than any other large city. AND it is a GREAT city for singles of ALL ages

For the last three years sports betting has been my primary source of income. I don't do any other gambling.

 Me also. I have a nice house in Summerlin. I only bet sports as my primary income. I stay awake from all other forms of Gambling. I have some side stuff that I do to earn extra money, but sports betting has been good to me. 

Of course you can. Why else would you move here? If you did not move to Vegas for Gambling reasons.........yr a square man.

go to Vegas, drink a cocktail at the Chandelier bar, eat an in-n-out burger animal style, and enjoy looking at beautiful women by the pool. You can gamble anywhere. 

Yeah but in the event you make a lot of money, sports books potentially won't be able to pay you everything.  Also, it is technically illegal, but that's not really what I'm worried about.  I've been thinking for a while now about giving Vegas a try.  I don't want to sound cocky but I am a pretty good gambler.  I think you are right though.  It would be nice just to go their on a trip first and see what it's like.  I'd like to go to the Bellagio and stay there and try my luck at their sports betting casino.  It would be really cool.  All in due time, I have to make the money for the trip first.
