Nevada sports books suffer record $11.4M loss after World Series

Nevada sports books lost a record $11.4 million on baseball in November after bettors cashed on the Astros beating the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 7 and on futures wagers on Houston to win the World Series. It was the largest baseball loss ever suffered in a month by the state’s sports books, according to Michael Lawton, the Nevada Gaming Control Board’s senior research analyst. The books’ previous record baseball loss was $6.2 million in November 1999, when bettors cashed their winning tickets on the New York Yankees following their World Series sweep of the Atlanta Braves. The state’s casinos won $909 million overall, including $274.7 million on penny slots.

The regents are expected to ask questions about the joint-use agreement on Jan. 4, then consider its approval on Jan. 19. Some of the key elements of the draft agreement: — UNLV will have access to onsite and offsite stadium parking and tailgating lots, which will be administered by the Raiders with net proceeds of parking sales going to UNLV. — The Raiders will control all concessions at the stadium, but net concession revenue from UNLV events will belong to UNLV.

Wynn Resorts Chief Marketing Officer Michael Weaver said in a statement to the Review-Journal in October that Wynn Resorts implemented a 12-hour policy “shortly after the recent tragedy.” Steve Wynn, chairman and CEO of Wynn Resorts Ltd., described the policy to Fox News in October, as “a room goes on ‘Do Not Disturb’ for more than 12 hours, we investigate.”
