For those who love the excitement of betting on
thoroughbred horse racing, a number of hotel/casinos
offer Race Books. Live closed-circuit broadcasts from
race tracks around the country allow players to bet
on, and watch, races from coast to coast.
From straight pari-mutual bets to more exotic bets,
playing the horses in a Race Book is the next best thing
to actually being at the track. The Race Books all
provide local newspapers, racing sheets and other
publications offering tips and information on races
from tracks in New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Florida
and California.
If you're new to the sport, race book ticket writers
are happy to answer your questions.
Everybody loves sports, and sports enthusiasts from
around the country come to Las Vegas to watch, and
bet on, the latest action.
A number of resort casinos feature Sports Book
wagering. Odds, point spreads and lines are posted
for a variety of professional and college sporting
events. Events are shown live on giant screen TV's in
the Sports Books, allowing bettors and spectators alike
to keep track of the day's games and matches.
You can bet on virtually any sporting event, with
the exception of team events taking place within the
state of Nevada. Professional and college football,
professional baseball, professional and college
basketball, boxing, professional hockey, golf and auto
racing are among the events offered for wagering.
In addition to straight bets, other wagers, including
propositions, teasers, parlays and futures bets,
are offered.
Even if you're not an expert, sports betting can be
a challenging and inexpensive way to add more
excitement to any sporting event.
