Posted on: Jeff Haney just can’t seem to get a fair shake at Harrah’s sports book

I continue to be amazed by the actions of "scared" bookmakers. I worked at a Harrah's property sportsbook many years ago, and they ran scared back then. At least in those days, they flat out refused to accept a wager or had a ridiculously low limit for the "wise guys". The behavior that Jeff experienced the other night was inexcusable. Harrah's should get fined by Gaming for this. I just never understood the thinking of Harrah's, and other like operations, assuming that the gambler is going to win the wager(s). The best bookmakers generate the most handle. Take the wagers and move the "freakin" number. If you don't want the action, don't put the games on the board.
