Wynn Las Vegas Race and Sports Book Review

The Wynn hotel is one of Las Vegas' most luxurious resorts and the sports book at the property is probably the most upscale place in town to place a bet or watch a game.

The sports book features dark wood décor and there are plush leather swiveling armchairs with drink holders and desks.

There is also a VIP lounge with 20 seats including comfortable couches.

Gamblers can watch the action on one of 37 plasma TVs and three 12-foot-by-12-foot big screens. All of the race bettors have Interactive Personal Terminal machines at the seats in the book, allowing them to place bets on horse races without having to go to the betting windows.

The Wynn race book is unique in that it takes horse racing future bets, including the Breeders' Cup and the Kentucky Derby. The book also offers the usual straight bets, money lines and totals wagers, as well as propositions and futures on all major sporting events, including NASCAR, tennis, golf and soccer.

An adjacent bar features TVs and plenty of seating including plush banquettes. The sports book at Wynn is also located adjacent to the Zoozacrackers deli for those who want to grab a bite to eat while watching the game.
