Thread: Retro Road Trip

    Thanks for the pic and report, Mickey.

    Sportsbetting is a huge industry, and it should be a success wherever it is legalized.

    I wonder when California is finally going to get its act together and get it done. Talk about a huge market. It's 1/8 of the US population.

    The old rule of thumb during the 60's and 70's was that New York's illegal books did ten times the business of Nevada's legal books. Similarly, California's illegal wagering was estimated to be ten times Nevada's. Huge markets.

    It's been reported that one book in New Jersey is putting up -112 lines on the NFL.

    Redietz, I just read where Nevada sportsbooks had a record month this past September where they took 571 million dollars in wagers and won 56.3 million dollars.That's 9.86% of the handle. Sides and totals are just 4.5% edge. What are they making the rest of the money on, parlays?

    To help "Rob Singer" with his math. Posts 63-66, with an assist from mickeycrimm, demonstrate that "Singer" and Mr. Mendelson had some company. Todd's massive WSOP win is also a matter of record.

    We're finally getting some movement on legal sportsbetting in Montana. The legislature meets every odd year so if it doesn't go this session it will be two years before it has another chance. The bill currently proposed wants to bring the big bookmakers into the Montana bars. It looks like kiosks will be installed. My guess is the books will go with the sports bars initially, get a read on how much business they are doing, then expanding out from there if it's viable.

    Bumping this thread. This is a good example of what decent information and discussion actually looks like. I see Boz is in the thread, so he was here when this was posted. Not sure what about the McCusker Report he doesn't find credible. Mickey Crimm oriented the photos properly after I botched them all.

    In the interest of complete reportage, I need to add that my girlfriend won LineMasters in 2019 for the third time in five years, which is impossible. The competition, which features roughly 40 heavy hitters (some of whom regnis knows), many of them horse players, requires six games a week, ranked from six down to one. Whatever I've accomplished in the last 40 years, her winning LineMasters three times in five years is as good as or better than anything I've done. If anyone has any interest, I'll track down her record over the five years and post it here.

    This thread is interesting, in part, because it also features Alan Mendelson gently trying to debunk the vetting of an academic paper at a national conference.

    "Singer's" current nonsense regarding me is ridiculous. I stated in another thread that I just gave a small group of sociologists (who've known me for 20 years plus) a tour of Las Vegas. Obviously, if "Singer" really believed I was blowing smoke, he'd simply ask who they were and would contact them to ask about me. He did not.

    More of the same....blah blah blah blah blah.

    How about posting those 7 picks/bets for Sunday's games and stop all your ridiculous posturing.

    The only problem with "Singer" is that he doesn't know how to gamble. That's the bottom line. Other than that, he's a bright dude. Good writer. Tricky with language. Other than stuff like:

    Hot and cold streaks.
    Machines talking to him.
    Publicly posting that using glitches is illegal while allegedly exploiting glitches.
    Announcing someone else is in Nevada betting NFL for him (not allowed by Gaming Commission).

    I mean, other than stuff like this, he's a smart guy. Why would a smart guy want to post on forums where he has no expertise? It's an odd hobby.

    You never got it. Why did I say anything? Mickey understands why I said whatever I said, and he explained why. So what happens? No one here likes me for whatever reason(s), so they turn on Mickey. The best endorsement I could ever have....
