Las Vegas Junkets Draw Big Bets and Big Risks
The Las Vegas junket system targets high rollers willing to risk $2,500 to $5,000 over several days. Hotels offer free trips, lodging, meals, and entertainment to attract players, while betting and house take rules shape profits. Junket reps in major cities coordinate trips, with credit lines and grading from AAA to F, and the Nevada Gaming Control Board oversees compliance to curb unsavory practices.
