Is there any establishment that specializes in European footy sports betting? I'm going to Vegas on Weds and would like to take some buddies out on Saturday morning to get drunk, watch some great games, and win some money. Just looking for a spot that has a lot of access to Euro games and takes the next to score type bets. Thanks!
I'm in Vegas right now. Most of the sports books take EPL games, but if you want to bet on the bundes, la liga etc, you'll have to go to the larger ones. Wynn, Caesar's, MGM Grand, Manadalay Bay. Try one of those. Holla back at me. I'll come get wasted with ya'll. I go to Texas Station to bet on sat mornings. But you gotta get up very early in the morning to bet on soccer. Games come on early on the east coast as it is, well Vegas is 3 hours behind that, so for some games you're talkin bout being up at 4-5am.
thanks a lot, but do they also televise the games? Like do they have sentanta, fsc and goltv so I can sit down and watch the games i'm betting on like the US sports?
You can give that one up. All they show is college football. I asked for the fox soccer channel to be put on one day and Texas Station and got laughed at.
The ESPN Zone at the NY-NY will show soccer games for you (or at least, they have in the past when me and my friends have asked them; even giving us one of the private rooms). But I'm not sure that they are open early enough to watch EPL games. I expect that more and more of the bigger casinos on the Strip would be open to showing soccer games, especially as international tourism to Vegas increases. But you'd have to do some more independent research on when/where/what. If you find a good place to not only bet on the games, but to watch them, please post that info here. I'll be in Vegas in a few weeks, and would appreciate the tip. I'm quite surprised that one of the casinos hasn't exploited this niche yet. Especially with the games on so early in the morning, it's not like there is a lot of competition for American sports at that hour.
Exactly what I was thinking, it seems like there's a large enough niche for at least one Casino to have a international sports lounge that has all the international Dish packages. I just want to wake up Saturday, watch some EPL and bet on some games while I get hammered. I'll be staying at the Stratosphere, and would most def be down to get drunk and watch some soccer if we can find a spot.
Can the FA Cup be bet on? I'll be there on the night of the 25th, right before the fourth-round proper on the 26th.
If you can find a casino that takes soccer bets, you can always put the bets in the night before and then take a quick cab ride to Crown and Anchor Pub - good soccer bar not far from the strip.
sry i never followed up, had a great time in Vegas (i think?, lol). The Mirage was the only big spot i could find to take bets. I was sleeping when the Arsenal game was on so I don't know if they had FSC, but I took 400 off the horrible line, which had Villa as a slight favorite and Arsenal as even money to win (arsenal won 2-1). I quickly threw my bet down when seeing that pitiful line.
