Nevada Sports Books Super Bowl Wagers

Some of Nevada's sports books operators were predicting $100 million to be bet on last Sunday's Super Bowl.  Bettors wagered only $87.5 million on the Super Bowl, an increase of $4.8 million from 2010, but $7 million lower than 2006's $94.5 million, when the Pittsburg Steelers beat the Seattle Seahawks. 

If office pools and other illegal wagers were counted, maybe the betting handle was over $100 million!
