It is co-owned and operated by MGM Resorts International, which runs one of Nevadas largest sportsbooks.This weekend, the number of bets on Kentucky-North Carolina was comparable to or greater than the number of bets on any of Sundays NFL games, according to MGM vice president of race and sports Jay Rood. MGM operates the sportsbooks at 10 locations in Las Vegas.It was just a ton of action, a ton of tickets, Rood said.The action was almost all small $10 and $20 bets, but there were a lot of individual tickets written on Kentucky-North Carolina. Rood has seen similar increases in betting action on the Pac-12 tournament, which was has been played at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas since 2013. The tournament moves to T-Mobile Arena in 2017.The Pac-12 tournament, when it was in Anaheim, it was a nonevent [for the sportsbook], Rood said. Now that its here at the MGM Grand, its a monster event from a handle standpoint for us.

It was a really, really heavily bet game for us.Kentucky freshman star Malik Monk scored 47 points, including the game-winning 3-pointer, in a thrilling 103-100 victory over the Tar Heels in the second game of a Saturday doubleheader.

The NHL has since placed a franchise in Las Vegas. The Vegas Golden Knights will call T-Mobile Arena home beginning in 2017.Working in a sportsbook, Salmons is used to hearing bettors cheer for random events not always directly associated with the outcome of the game, but he didnt hear much of it Saturday.I mean, people betting serious money on the game, where they care that much more about the spread than the game, youre probably talking less than 1 percent of the people who attend, Salmons said. It doesnt matter. Its immaterial.Salmons did come away impressed by UCLA. Last April, he opened the Bruins as 80-1 long shots to win the national championship at the SuperBook. The SuperBook took a $600 bet on the Bruins when they were 80-1.Salmons now has UCLA listed at 7-1.China Jerseys Outlet .
