Sports Betting Ticket

As it should be, collecting your winnings from a sports bet is a fairly straightforward process but there are a few things you should know. The standard situation is that once your ticket becomes a winner you bring it to the betting counter, they scan it for you and give you the cash or chips.

Alternatively, you can also apply it towards your next bet instead. If the sportsbook closes before you get a chance to cash it in, you can often bring it to the main cashier and they will do it for you.

The standard rules for cashing in a winning sports betting ticket is that you have 120 days to do it after the event has ended. If that time passes the ticket becomes void. It is important that you are careful with your ticket, as it is the same thing as carrying cash. If you lose it and do not know the transaction number for your bet, there is nothing the sportsbook can do for you. Anyone can find it and collect.

Mailing in Your Sports Betting Ticket

As will be the case with many winning sports tickets, the bettor is a tourist and not in town to collect. If you know you are not going to return to Vegas within 120 days, or you just don’t feel like waiting to go back, you have the option of mailing your ticket to the sportsbook and you will receive a check within a few weeks.

Our betting trends, also known as public betting percentages, represent actual wagers. A large money percentage indicates a higher likelihood that pros are betting on this side. Monitoring public betting data is a vital tool used by sharp bettors to find value within the sports betting marketplace. South Point's spacious Sports Book features two wall-sized big screen televisions, multiple plasma televisions, over 100 seats, as well as, additional seating in the Del Mar Lounge, which is adjacent to the area. The friendly and courteous ticket writers are happy to help customers from the novice to the sophisticated sports.

The address of where and who exactly to mail the ticket to is explained clearly on the back of your ticket. You can use regular mail but the tickets say to use registered mail so that your ticket is more easily traced and harder to steal. Registered mail is held under lock and key and takes a long time to deliver as this is does exclusively via ground. Depending on how much the winning ticket is worth may impact if you think paying extra for the registered mail is worth it. However, if you don’t use registered mail and something happens they will tell you you’re out of luck for not following the instructions. Whichever mail you use, it is a good idea to also make a copy of your winning ticket.

Taxes Withheld Upfront

Unlike many other types of gambling, the sportsbook does not hand you a W-2G tax form every time you come through with $600 or more in profit off one bet. It is way too difficult thus time consuming for them to stay on top of how much each person has bet. You can bet $11,000 on a game to win $10,000, succeed, and still be down thousands on the day. How would you feel if you went to collect your $10,000 win on a day you are still losing only to have them hand you a form to fill out for Uncle Sam’s share?

This is the issue for numerous other table games in the casino. If someone brings $5,000 in chips to the cashier they don’t know if you are up or down. If you win money from gambling you are “supposed” to report the earnings to the IRS as taxable income. But seeing as this is all operating on the honor system, the IRS obviously understands there is a ton of unreported income they are not going to know about since everything is settled in cash and the casinos paying out the winnings don’t have any records of who won and lost.

Gambling would certainly be a far less exciting hobby and profitable business if the casinos started breathing down their customer’s neck over every penny of how much they were up or down. It would feel like a hassle if gamblers were required to have a player’s card that they were also required to give to be swiped in every time they start playing a game.

Going through all that red tape would take some of the buzz out of gambling. The thrill of gambling is its impulsiveness. Having the action fly and money passed around with no concerns as to getting into the game, how you will collect, and who is watching. This isn’t to make the argument you shouldn’t have to pay taxes on your winnings, but it’s good that it’s not really enforced in a lot of areas because doing that would take away a lot from what it is.

The standard for something like a lottery or a horse race bet is you must win $600 or more and have that also come from a bet where the odds were at least 300 to 1. There are very few sports bets available that offer odds of 300 to 1. If you did place a $10 bet and 300-1 and nailed it for the $3,000, then you can expect to be given a W-2G form.

What To Do If You Lose Your Ticket

At the time you place the bet, there are some precautionary measures you can take to give you an out in case you do lose the ticket.

If you hand the betting agent your player’s card they can swipe it before you place the bet. The betting information will go on your card as proof you made this bet on this day. If you lose the ticket, you can still cash it in. The only catch is if someone finds your ticket and cashes it in before you could prove it was yours and you lost it with your player’s card, unfortunately you are out of luck.

At the bottom of each ticket are a bunch of numbers. This is the transaction number for your bet. Writing these numbers down serves as a backup if you misplace the ticket. With this information, you can go to the sportsbook and they will hand you a lost ticket form. From there, it would take about 60-90 days to be resolved at which time you would receive a check in the mail. None of this can be done over the phone.

Now that more states are legalizing sports betting, there’s a need to cater to an increasing customer base across the country — and also cut down wait time at counters manned by less experienced ticket writers, taking wagers from less experienced bettors.
​One way casinos are meeting the higher demand is through kiosks. Betting, or gaming kiosks, have been used overseas for years and are now making their way to the United States.

Betting kiosks aim to improve the customer experience by cutting down wait time. With multiple betting kiosks available, bettors will be able to place a wager whenever they please, instead of waiting in lines. And this will keep patrons happier and coming back for the experience.

Most kiosks offer the full suite of wagering options you’d expect online, both pre- and in-game, including parlays and prop bets. They are designed to offer an intuitive user experience with simple navigation and live odds, some of them with feeds from games alongside the betting menus.

Benefits of Betting Kiosks

• Easier access for customers to place wagers, shorter wait times
• Use cash, a voucher or the sportsbook’s player account card that’s prepaid with funds
• Kiosks can pay out winning tickets using above methods of funding
• Novice bettors may prefer to navigate through prompts on screen than write down/remember “rotation numbers” with a teller
• Patrons can sit down at some kiosks and live bet while watching games

There are currently (at least) five companies that distribute betting kiosks: Kambi, SB Tech, SG Digital/Scientic Games, International Game Technology (IGT) and Stadium Technology Group.

Kambi

Kambi is currently working with DraftKings, SugarHouse and 888 Sport to provide betting kiosks.

Players can either feed cash into the kiosk or buy a voucher, which can be scanned at the terminal. They work on a session-based system so players can place numerous bets if they wish and print a ticket with their wagers/balance at the end of the session. These tickets can then be re-scanned to continue to play at a later time.

Your local sportsbook may give the option to use an account card for betting at home online (where permitted), and on the casino floor by using one card. Patrons scan the card at the terminal and get access to their balance, live wagers and account information. Wagers placed at the casino can then be managed at home, on a mobile device or desktop computer.

SB Tech

SBTech’s kiosks make it simple for players to place wagers in a sports betting venue, receive a printed ticket and make withdrawals without the need for any assistance. The kiosks are already being used by SBTech’s partners at venues including:

• Golden Nugget in Atlantic City, NJ
• Golden Nugget in Biloxi, MS
• Harlow’s Casino Resort & Spa in Greenville, MS
• Riverwalk Casino Hotel in Vicksburg, MS

Players can be given the option to credit the kiosk with funds from their online account by swiping their membership card. This feature is dependent upon state regulations and is not currently permitted in New Jersey or Mississippi. The option may be available in the future or in new states.

International Game Technology (IGT)

IGT provides betting kiosks for FanDuel Sportsbook in New Jersey. They also debuted a smaller kiosk in Las Vegas that allows casinos and bars to deliver a sportsbook in a box to betting fans.

In addition to pre-game wagering, players are provided with extensive in-play and real-time wagering suggestions tailored to the events they’re watching. Bettors can wager with cash directly at the terminal with no need to go to the counter.

Stadium Technology Group

Currently, Stadium Technology Group kiosks can be found at the Santa Ana Star Casino in New Mexico. They were recently approved by the Nevada Gaming Control Board. The kiosks are expected to go live in Nevada and other states in the first quarter of 2019.

The kiosk accepts cash and voucher wagering along with loyalty cards and account deposits.

To place a wager, the patron selects a game and touches the ‘Build Your Bets’ button. On the Build Your Bets screen, players can enter the desired bet amount and select a bet type, as well as choosing which of the previously selected games will be included in the wager.

At any time during the wagering process, the customer can touch the finish button to receive a voucher with their available balance.

SG Digital/ SciGames

Vegas Sports Betting

The release of the first SG Digital kiosks are expected in mid-2019, with Caesars casinos being the company’s initial operating partner.

SG Digital kiosks will provide an intuitive user interface instructions to guide bettors through the process of placing basic bets, such as straight bets and parlays.

The main page will allow bettors to sort by sport, and then listings of events in time order along with options to bet on the three main markets (spread, moneyline and totals). Customers will have multiple ways to search for the type of bet they wish to place including:
