I must really be missing something here/ OR you all are mostly "whales".
But-IF it can be used State wide and you have 2 account at 2 casinos and want to bet an NFL game for $1,000; it's OK ?
I can see NO reason that would not be HUGELY succesfull. I mean the driving and parking alone would be some hassle.
As a little player, I must not belong to this group!
So take an NFL season: say 25 weeks X 4 games @ 1k each(total weekly limit at two books combined) = 100 games @ 100K...
Win 60 games @ -108 = 15K profit before expenses & hassles...only the love of the game would carry one here...divide by 4 if you're talking only one game per week.

I'd much rather go through a hassle in setting up a similar workaround for European books & exchanges....

I did not know it had to be GPS enabled phones. I can tell you this on why the limits were not changed. Your not worth the hassel not even remotely.
The labor involved is beyond what you know and the complaints and other bullshit is the same as the offshores in a lot of regards. When you add in the accounting functions/auditing that goes along with that, PHTTTT. Its designed to make you want to stay away. You add nothing to the bottom line.

Pain in the ass if you ask me.....If the moralists want to leave Vegas in the stone age of gambling then continue to do business offshore where it's easy to place a bet and some churchgoer isnt pissed off because you're placing a bet while your foot is on the county line.

Vegas is missing out on a huge market share simply because they aren't allowed to take internet and long distance phone wagers....turning the Vegas sportsbooks obsolete in the new age of communications....

All they're doing is driving it underground and offshore.
