As everyone knows Nevada is the epicenter of wagering in the United States, with hundreds of casinos in Las Vegas and elsewhere. Although live horse racing in the state is limited to a few short fair meets, almost all of the best casinos in the state provide for off track betting in their sportsbook facilities. But even if you live in Nevada, sometimes you just might not want the hassle of getting out to the local casino to bet major stakes races in North America or overseas.
Nevada Off Track Betting Sites
This is where the convenience of having an online racebook account comes in. You can bet the races from home on your PC or mobile device, and take advantage of the best promotions.
The best casinos in Nevada make sure they cater to their customers' needs, and this is also what horseplayers want in an online racebook, as well. That's why Bovada has developed such a good reputation over the years as one of the most popular web-based betting sites.
Specifically for horseplayers, Bovada offers the most tracks to bet on from around the world, and the most A-level tracks that offer the highest maximum payouts. Bovada also gives bettors the chance to cash in on at high odds on big races like the Breeders' Cup World Championships with their future bets promotions. And like all the best racebooks, Bovada gives a competitive first-deposit bonus and weekly cash back rebates on all wagers whether they win or lose.
Nevada Horse Race Tracks
There are a few short-term fair grounds race meets in Nevada that seem to come and go each year, with the most prominent being the White Pine Horse races meet at Ely, Nevada, a four-hour drive northeast of Vegas. They've been holding horse races at White Pine for 80 years, typically on the last weekend of August, with racing of both throroughbreds and Quarter horses.
OTB Locations in Nevada
Although the number of casinos in Nevada with a racebook are too numerous to list here, here are a few that consistently are mentioned as the best. All of these casinos offer horse wagering as well as numerous other sports as part of their full-service casino experience. This is just a small sampling of the scores of avilable OTBs in Nevada. Basically, if you go into a casino and it doesn't have a racebook, just leave and try the one next door.
