    Here's another one for you to ponder clownaway123........

    You wonder why all the offshore books now offer casino play???

    It's because that's where the real money is.  That is what they really can control and fix.

    Think real hard about it doucheaway123

    So how do you explain a couple years ago, Navy is favored by 5 vs Army, 4th and goal from the 5 yd line up 4 with less than a minute left...a FG puts them up 7, a logical choice.  But no, they go for it, the QB tosses it 10 yds out of the end zone, and Navy doesn't cover!  (That one stands out for some reason)! :)


    Yeah, sports books made billions off of that game.  I forgot about that one.

    Or a couple weeks ago, USC favored by 15, winning by 14, 4th down and 6 at the opponents 20yd line, and instead of kicking the FG to go up 17 (who's kicker kicked a 48yd earlier), they go for it and the pass wasn't close.  You can't make this shiat up.

    I can go on and on, but dude, you are in denial if you don't think any of this shiat is fixed!  Maybe I'll write a book! :)

    I have been punting on a much higher level than most for about 10 years and lost fortunes at times doing it and i could name you 100 beats like what you have said but i dont believe the books are behind,yes i do believe games are fixed but thats by syndicates who are out to beat the books not the books themselves.

    You may be right, when I say "fixed", it may not be all on Vegas, but way too many sketchy outcomes to say they are legit...but I also wouldn't say Vegas has "no" say.

    Once again proving yourself to be the idiot you are if you think the majority of online sportsbooks revenue is off casino games.  Basic marketing knowledge would tell you they spend the most of their advertising budget on bringing in sports bettors you fool.  Real money?  HA, you're a bigger dunce than I realized 


    Also wouldnt know anything about a game from 2 years ago since I've only been betting for <1 year and I'm not a 60 year old degenerate clown trying to prove a point after working 10+ years as a casino janitor

    The stupidity in this thread is astounding.  bettingforfun, just drop it.  Let them believe what they want to believe.  The mystique and the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas has got them hooked.  

    It's not even that hard to figure out anymore.  I could understand being this naive before the internet existed but now there is even a TV/radio station that broadcasts directly from a sportsbook that has programming hosted by that same sportsbook's oddsmakers.  They have no problem talking about exact dollar amounts won/lost/bet/etc.  

    I'll try one last comparison to help out here...  When you go to the grocery store and buy a few pounds of lunch meat that costs a total of $40, you may have noticed that lunch meat can sometimes make up a huge portion of your total money spent that day.  But if you understood the grocery business, you would know that the deli only accounts for about 4% of the store's margins.

    The fact that you compare gambling on the only football game on with lunch meat purchased at a grocery store shows that you obviously didn't graduate high school!  Add the fact to said lunch meat equates to 4% of the revenue is also funny stuff.  What exactly are you MVP of, being stupid???

    Do you think the rest of the casino is closed when there is only one football game being played?  

    And yes, the deli is actually responsible for less than 4% of total sales.  I'm glad I could teach you something this evening.

    "Do you think the rest of the casino is closed when there is only one football game being played?"

    So what does this have to do with anything?  Millions were bet on this game tonight, Vegas, Books, whomever, were not going to lose, are you this clueless?

    "And yes, the deli is actually responsible for less than 4% of total sales."

    Too funny, now you say "less than 4%", when earlier it was "4%"...you are losing your credibility with each post.  

    I'm still stunned that anyone thinks gambling is legit in Vegas, they just keep raking in the money because they are really good and very lucky! UGH

    I'm not sure why you think a few million dollars is a lot of money when the rest of the business is taking in billions.  It's nearly an insignificant amount.

    I'm trying to illustrate the point that the sportsbook is responsible for a tiny percentage of the overall revenue.  Why is this so hard to understand?

    It's  like we have a pack of jr high school girls in here.  Not one understands the difference between gross and net.  It's soooooo obvious it's nothing but kids playing on the family computer.

    Go to sleep little girls.

    How come the books didn't fix the Philly and New England games? They lost their a$$ on those 2 square plays.

    Just going through this thread, i can see who the idiots and the sane people are. 

    Wow.

    If you were on Pitt on Monday night, just take your lumps and move on. How many faves and Overs have hit on prime-time games this season? Just because something doesn't go your way the sore losers have to revert to conspiracy theories. Every week it happens. 

    I have lived and worked in Las Vegas -- even got to know a few sportsbook big guns -- the guy who worked with the books is right -- you don't really want their job. 

    The deli analogy is also correct. The sportsbook is there just because other casinos have it. Every major grocery chain have a deli, which is probably the least profitable operation per square foot. Same can be said for every sportsbook in Vegas. 

    Even during the Super Bowl i have heard Jay Kornegay say that the NFL handle is way less than 10% of the action.

    Sore losers will always remember the coincidences where they got a bad beat. It rarely happens. But boy it sure wounds them and they never heal. And they will grow old and senile and be dotards, never really able to prove anything.

    Deli/sportsbook reference/analogy.

    Why is is so hard to get to the sportsbook section in Vegas? You have to navigate through a mile of tables and slot machines before you there.

    Why is it so hard to get to the eggs and milk section? You have to navigate through a crooked path of selective merchandise displays. 

    Have you ever try to find parking at Planet Hollywood and then get to their sportsbook? It is the worse.

    Riviera had a drive-up sporstbook window. But i bet that tiny space would be better suited for slot machines.

    What else?
