The World Series destroyed Las Vegas sportsbooks this year
How much did Vegas lose during the Astros World Series win over the Dodgers? How does over 11 million sound?
2/ Per Nevada Gaming Control's Mike Lawton on November statewide sports betting numbers: "This was due to several factors including Game 7 (played Nov. 1), cashed tickets from previous games, and payouts made on prop bets on who would win the World Series." @Covers

Of course, they immediately won all of that money back on football and basketball bets in November. They even made money that month:
However, even after the record loss, the books were able to remain open. In fact, thanks to big wins in football and basketball, Nevada sportsbooks actually won $9.8 million overall in November. It’s the 52nd straight month the books have come out on top, a streak that dates back to July 2013.
Here’s the lesson: even when you think Vegas is losing, they’re still winning.
Numbers from:
Saban got 397 votes out of 22,000 write ins for #ALsen, according to yesterday’s totals.
Gus Malzahn got 5.
“Your mom” got 1. https://t.co/MFM5dpkf9g
