I live in a town where “11 to 10” does not mean the time of day. In Las Vegas, we have legal sports gambling as well as simulcasting of nearly every racetrack in the country 364 days a year. Thank goodness Christmas Day is dark.
A professional sports bettor practices an oath that most professional horse bettors abstain from with a passion. The 11 to 10 represents the odds on nearly all sports wagers in Las Vegas. It has been this way for a long, long time.
