Still many sharps in Vegas using offshore and settling up with agents. It's not as large as it was years ago before some agents were busted but it's still going on. With so few independent books in Vegas players are looking for more outs. The consolidation of Las Vegas casinos by just a small amount of owners is a really negative to advantage players. It hurts in so many ways. Getting 86ed for playing BJ or a gambling promotion can cost you 5-6 casinos. Casinos offer less promotions because instead of competing against 20 you competing against 4. Still remember going into the Las Vegas Hilton and laying 2 1/2 on an NFL game and going to the Riviera and taking back 3 1/2 and this was not involving any free 1/2 point promo. It could still happen today but when there was so many independent casinos it was much more commonplace.
