Going to Vegas today...

Re: Going to Vegas today...

Previous times I've been here they've *at least* had the next event up. I'll look for their little printouts to see if they have them out, just not *up*.

You would think at least 119 would be up. . . .

TRi. Sometimes they will not even have the sheets out. Just go up to one of the sportsbook employees and ask for a printout of all upcoming MMA lines. You might find some sweet lines on some fights down the road.

Keep in mind that the Venetian is really funny. Sometimes they will have a shitload of lines out, some not even release offshore yet. And sometimes they will have just a few out.

They have one dude there that releases the lines for them. if he releases a fights line before the offshore books do, he can be off at times.

From what I've seen/heard there lines they release first are alot lower than when the offshore line that comes out .

I have seen it all with them. I have seen -500 faves open @ the venetian @ -150 or -160.

Mo opened @ -180(against Whitehead) if I remember right. And I believe he opened @ -300 or -400 offshore, and then shot up from there.

Some of their lines are so off, that it would make sense to fly from the East coast to make a big bet.

Got my hands on a sheet.

Re: Going to Vegas today...

Ha ha. Well done, sir.

They spelled Peace's name wrong, though.

TRI, those lines on that sheet are the opening lines. They may have changed. They may also have more lines, but just do not have sheets out for them.

I always ask someone at the sportsbook for ALL of their MMA lines. they will print a small tape out for you with every line available.

I would think that Dunham line has changed, as well as the Mir line.

Beltran @ +170

At least we now have an idea of where Mark Hunt MIGHT be.

Damn, would have been nice to be able to get some of that Tavares -145 action.
