With the College or Pro Football you are into, it is time to revisit sports books and betting in Las Vegas.

Five Things to Remember about Vegas Sportsbooks

1) Don’t sleep in the Sports Book just to save a seat. Some of you are surprised to hear that people sleep in Sports Books. Just walk by at 3am on the eve of Superbowl or March Madness and you will see plenty of them. There are many other places to watch the games, such as casino bars, gentlemen’s clubs, and restaurants bars.

2) Don’t wait until the last second to bet. It gets crowded and you don’t want to spend 1 hour in line to make that $11 bet. It is better to make the bet the night before. Don't worry, the line won''t change that much.

3) Don’t forget to ask for Drink Tickets when you make a bet. You will need them to get the comp drinks from the cocktail servers. If you don't ask you won't get, so be sure to ask every time you make a bet.

4) Don’t bet on non-televised games.Part of the fun of betting on a game, is watching the drama unfold. Otherwise, you are watching the sports ticker at the bottom of ESPN to see if you won.

5) Don’t forget to cash in your winning ticket when you leave. Many people go home with tickets and never remember to bring them back to cash them. Don't let this happen to you.

Ralph goes to a blackjack table with $100 in his wallet. He exchanges his cash for chips and is playing for 20 minutes. He has $20 left. He bets all $20. The dealer gives him two 8s versus the dealers 7. What is he suppose to do? He either has to hit or stand. The dealer is not going to not let Ralph go to the ATM to get $20 more bucks. Maybe if there was a buddy at the table he could borrow $20, but he doesn't. So he reluctantly takes a hit, gets a 10 and busts. The dealer flips over the hole card for 17. Don't let this happen to you. Don't bet every dollar you have on you. Always make sure you have enough in reserve to double down or split if you have to.

Although many of Vegas's restaurants are not located in casinos, not many are worth the time and money to travel to (there are a few exceptions). It might be easy to get a cab to take you there, but getting one to pick you again later can take up to an hour. Perhaps you'll want to head downtown for a meal, but that's really about it. You have every food option you can think of, or adjacent to, the Strip.

Some people think food just gets in the way of a good buzz. They usually wind up much drunker than the rest of the group, groping every woman in sight and getting thrown out of the casino. You will be walking and drinking a lot in Vegas, so make sure you have enough fuel in your body to keep you going for the long haul. If you don't eat enough, your friends will wind up having to babysit you later, or they'll refuse to bail you out of jail when you get arrested for indecent exposure.

Remember these three points of advice when you have to check out of your room.

1) Skip the Checkout. When you check out, don't waste your time standing in the long line at the front desk. Use the check out on your television or just leave and have the bill put on your credit card.

2) Check-Out Times Are Not Set in Stone. If they say check-out time is 10 a.m., don't worry if is 11 a.m. before you roll out. If they call your room, just tell them you are packing your stuff. Take your time and play stupid if they give you a hard time.

3) Check Your Bags With the Bell Desk. If you flight leaves later, check your bags with the bell staff. If you are going to spend the rest of your time at a different hotel before you leave, bring your bags with you and check them in with the bell desk at the hotel. You don't have to be a guest there to check you bags.

You don't want to look like a novice when handling the dice. When it is your turn to be the shooter, the dealer will push over five dice to you. Select two dice with you thumb and index finger and move them away from the other three. The dealer will pull away from other three dice. Leave the two dice on the felt and make sure you have your pass line bet on the table. (Do not bet Do Not Pass when you are the shooter, unless you want to piss off the rest of the table).

Pick up the dice with your thumb and index finger in your right hand. (This isn't like playing Axis and Allies when you were a kid, you can't shake the dice with two hands). Next, don't bring the dice above the rim of the table. Blowing on the dice is strictly for the movies - if you do, you'll look like an idiot. Now, use an underhand motion and throw a nice soft arc having the dice first hit the table about three fourths down on the table. The dice should bounce once, and then bounce off the backstop of the table and come to a stop on the far side.

Look, if you don't put enough mustard behind it, the dice will drop in the middle of the table and you'll get a reation akin to that person who throws the opening pitch only to have the ball hit the dirt fifteen feet in front of the catcher.

Conversely, you don't want to put so much behind it that the dice ricochets off the table and onto the floor. If that happens, it is considered bad luck at the table, so you have already dug yourself a hole with the other players. As someone is fishing the dice off the floor, the dealer will push the three other dice to you. Quietly select two dice and this time throw lower and softer (and pray for a good role and that the dice don't leave the table again).

If you are in the middle of a big role and the dice leave the table, you should call out "same dice" to the dealer. This will insure that the "lucky" dice that have been making everyone money are still in use. Do not call "same dice" if you are coming out or if you are in the beginning stage of your role.

Practice makes perfect, so pick up a pair of dice in the gift shop and throw them in your room. If you're still not comfortable with your throws, just say "pass" when asked to be the shooter and let someone else throw them.

If you are new to gambling or your blackjack skills are a bit rusty, you want to sit on the right hand side of the table, preferably in the first base position that is dealt to first. This way, you won't be caught up with all action of the other players, and if you make a bonehead move that causes all the players to lose, they won't be able to directly blame it on you because so many cards had been played since your move.

In the third base position, you are last to be dealt to before the dealer. Make the wrong move and the dealer will get a different card than he would have had you played directly, and everyone might lose. Do that enough and the other players will blame you for losing - not an experience you will really cherish.

At least one of the guys in your party will want to check out the kitschy part of the Strip. Just remember there is a thin line between kitschy and pathetic. Slots-A-Fun and Circus Circus are just plain pathetic. These two sideshow attractions at the end of the Strip will take the wind out of your sails, really fast. Both seem to be competing for the best hot dog deal on the planet, and although it’s unfair to declare a winner, it’s probably best to avoid both of them. Slots-A-Fun’s showroom/bar usually features one of the worst Elvis impersonators that you’ll ever find. The patrons of these places will most likely remind you of everyone you’ve ever seen on America’s Most Wanted.

Circus Circus in particular is one to steer clear of during the day. While the steak house here is great at night, avoid the big top when the sun is out. If you’re a dad, the last thing you want on your vacation with the boys is to endure the sounds of a bunch of screaming kids. If you don’t have kids, five minutes in Circus Circus will make you start saving up for a vasectomy. Oh, yeah: If you do decide to go down to this part of the Strip, see which one of your friends is man enough to try the 99-cent shrimp cocktail, a unique treat that is easy on the wallet and tough on the stomach.

It’s great to get together with your whole group, light up cigars, and shoot the shit. You can always avoid the expense and limited selection at the restaurant by bringing your own. In addition to the cigar boutiques inside most major hotels, there are a number of small liquor stores on the Strip that carry a good selection of cigars. Distribute a cigar to everyone in our group and smoke them together in celebration.

Here are a few basics for making your selection:

Origin
Stick with cigars from Honduras or the Dominican Republic. Other cigars from Jamaica, Brazil, Costa Rica, and Nicaragua are good only if you really know what you are doing.

Brand
Choose from the following types: Padron, Davidoff, Don Tomas, Montecristo, Macanudo, Avo, or Romeo y Julieta. All the lesser known brands can be hit-or-miss on quality.

Wrapper
Select one with a lighter color wrapper. Cigars with dark wrappers have a much stronger taste that will be overwhelming for the novice.

Size
Stick with smaller size Corona or Robusto, and avoid the big sizes of Presidentes, Double Coronas, and Churchill’s. Sure, the huge cigars look cool, but they take literally forever to smoke.
