  • Wendover Limits

    What are the limits in Wendover in the sportsbooks? Last time I was there, it was $1,000 per side. I'm thinking of driving out tomorrow morning. Also, what time do they open on weekdays?

    I feel like I would be slapping God in the face if I didn't seize the opportunity He has placed in my lap. Nevada opened at -3. It should be at least 10.

    Pretty hefty price to pay for your plate of disgust.

      I'm not sure what that means.

        I thought the line on the Wyoming-Boise game was free money too. Good thing I don't be on my teams.
        There's no such thing as luck, only drunken invincibility. Make it happen.

        Tila Tequila and Juggalos, America’s saddest punchline since the South.

        Yesterday was Thursday, Thursday
        Today is Friday, Friday (Partyin’)

        Tomorrow is Saturday
        And Sunday comes afterwards

          Do you bet on BYU often? What kind of karma does that usually entail?

            She's calling you a pussy and suggesting you go to Vegas and drop some real money on the game.

              Good hedging opportunity. BYU loses. Oh well, I just made some money.

                I rarely bet on BYU games. When I do, I lose. I took BYU against Air Force. I wanted Florida State in a big way last week, but couldn't make it out to Wendover. Nevada is going to kill BYU this week. Absolute murder. Might as well make some cash on it.

                  Problem is, Vegas is 6 hours away.

                      Yes. It's getting harder and harder to get money into the accounts, though. They also have daily limits on deposits.

                        Hey Hey, you instigator. Next thing you know Blue Hair is gonna claim I have a penis.

                        I just meant that BlueHair was sounding a little disgusted with BYU's performance so far, but placing a bet in Wendover means a long boring drive, the cost of gas, and well, being in Wendover. And you wont feel any better, even when you win. And as SCCoug points out, it's threatening karma.

                          No kidding. One thinks of the 2003 Utah game when pretty much everyone was putting money on Urban to cover easily. And then the karmic gods descended from their arctic perch, providing a 3-0 groin kick--a frustrating loss without the monetary balm of a hedge bet win.

                            I've bet on the Utes a few times. Every single time, it seems, they don't cover the spread, but still win the game. A double kick in the nuts.

                              I happen to live in a state that allows gambling. If some extra funds suddenly appeared in my account one day, it is entirely feasible that I would stop by a local sports book and put all that money on Nevada. It is also feasible that I would demand a 10% take of any winnings, assuming I were to do this. If the bet did not produce any winnings, I would probably not demand any fee.
                              Prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them, along with this slice of humble pie that comes direct from the oven of shame set at gas mark “egg on your face”! -- Moss

                              There's three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who's got the same first name as a city; and never go near a lady's got a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock
