LVH Race and Sports SuperBook Review
The Superbook encompasses 30,000 square feet and offers more than 300 seats. There are 60 viewing monitors, including 28 large screens and one mammoth 15' x 20' screen showing all of the biggest games and races.
The sports book area offers dozens of bets on everything from the Rugby World Cup to tennis and soccer. The Superbook is also the place to go if you want interesting proposition bets. The book recently offered more than 300 propositions on the Super Bowl alone.
Gamblers are kept up-to-date on the latest scores and sports news by a 75-foot sports ticker running across the room.
The race area of the Superbook is a bettors dream. There are individual LED TVs at every seat and dozens of big screens to watch races from across the country.
For the high rollers, there is a VIP section with plush leather armchairs, four 15-inch LCD screens and one bigscreen TV.
The LVH's Superbook is also one of the most convenient in town with special parking right outside the door and an entrance off Joe W. Brown Drive behind the hotel.
For those searching for refreshments after a long day of betting, the Eighth Pole Bar located next to the Superbook offers not only drinks, but five TVs and two larger flat screens so you don't miss a minute of the action. The Superbook Super Snack Bar, which also borders the sports book, offers sandwiches, salads, snacks and breakfast food.
