This won't have any impact on Las Vegas since most of the actual oddsmakers and first chance at inside leaks happens there. The real impact is going to be on the mafioso bastards who still take these bets.in the old days, there would be some politicians getting whacked. 2018? Should still be interesting.
Actually its a win for the public.
Vegas will offer more perks to entice the public to visit.

I just did a tour of the city with what was our 3rd time going there. I noticed this time (april 2017) rates for hotels were WAY higher than before. I asked the guy and he went into a whole story that basically Vegas is moving strongly away from assuming gambling winnings as the main income source. They're already moving into what you're describing of tailoring more to the "luxury" of Vegas as opposed to the gambling. I'm not going to make up numbers, but this has been proven to be true over the past several years where profits from gambling have markedly gone down, while profit from rooms/food/booze have gone up. I have no doubt this decision was in part the reason they did it.

I own a timeshare, (in Las Vegas) and as part of my timeshare exchange program they also allow you to buy "Getaways"...these are just non traded weeks available for purchase. And the prices for these weeks to purchase have gone up a lot. What I think is happening is there there is a concerted, collusive effort by the Vegas hotel etc. groups to raise the prices there, at least of their higher end properties.
I am actually contemplating flying into Vegas.. in October.....but only staying out there one night coming and one night leaving. You used to be able to get a decent hotel for that purpose for as low as 35-40 per night. Now they cost as much as a low cost hotel anywhere else, in other words....65-70 per night and Up.
Even Motel 6 and Howard Johnson's want like 90=95 per night.
The well known places on The Strip are wanting like over $200+ per night.
My timeshare is right on the strip there. Even they want like $165 a night....from the general public. I don't know if I could get a discount because I am an owner for a one night stay. I could check. On the other hand, I have a good friend of mine from high school who now lives in Vegas, so, if I stay there, my cost per night would be -0-....or at minimum whatever gift I would get this person for allowing me to stay.

Another oops on that 60 mile thing, Reno, NV, two brothels within 40 miles:
Reno is the most populous Nevada city outside the Las Vegas Valley, with an estimated population of 241,445 in 2015.[3] Reno is part of the Reno–Sparks metropolitan area, which consists of all of both Washoe and Storey counties and has a 2016 estimated population of 457,420.[4]
Actually, no ooops on my part. We were talking about Vegas, and hence I was referring to Clark County. In Clark County, they use the 60 mile rule, somewhere in there is the 100,000 population dictate because of new, growing towns (Henderson) that would have not been previously covered. What they do in Reno, I couldn't give a fauhk. Reno is full of liberal homos. (And judges, lol)

Wrong again, Henderson is in Clark County (which is well over 700,000 now) and has a population of 300,000+ by itself. No other city/county is close to the 700,000+ club. Whats with 60 mile, 100,000 population?
Oh my old plant engineer had a brother who lived in Henderson over 30 years ago, it has grown since then.
Nevada total population by county
County Total Population Clark 
1,997,659 includes Vegas and Henderson
Washoe 429,079 Reno area
Carson City 54,616
Lyon 51,264
Elko 50,954 and that's the top 5 as of 2012 the rest are very small
GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND! -

Nevada is full of liberals, and homos. I mean....what attitude do you think led to the legalization of gambling, prostitution, marijuana.
If you want to hang with so called conservatives, then move to like Freaking St. George Utah, not Vegas.
Nevada is full of liberals, and homos.
Whats the difference?

Never wrong. Clark County uses 60 miles from a 100K city. Thats all there is to it.

It must be exhausting for conservatives to constantly overcompensate to prove to everyone - and themselves - how masculine they are.

FROM CNN, 2016.....
"Brothels not legal in big cities
Nevada law allows counties with a population below 700,000 to offer brothel prostitution.That means no legal prostitution in Clark County, where Las Vegas is. County law prohibits brothels in Washoe County, home to Reno, and several other counties." (SEE THE LINK IT EXPLAINS NRS 244.345 in detail.)
The current law says under 700,000 in population, 60 miles is never mentioned.
Nevada is a tiny little state with nothing except Vegas and Henderson in Clark County and Reno in Washoe county...... nevermind this is going nowhere.
Facts just tend to confuse some people.

My understanding is that the weed money cannot be put into the US banking system because of federal drug laws.
Who gives a rats a$$ that you want it legal. The state of Ohio wont be asking you. Alcohol leads to so many problems, but combined with weed screws people up.
Nobody after eating sugar or smoking a cigarette ever got behind the wheel of a car and killed somebody. You sitting down and devouring a whole chocolate cream pie does not effect me.
Weed money can't be put into the US banking system? Then what do the 7 states where it is legal do with their "weed" money? They sure as hell don't carry cash around.
Alcohol does and will affect far more people driving a vehicle that weed does/ever will. And I can tell you....being in the business....there are more OVI arrests where prescription drugs are involved than where weed is involved.

Naturally you miss the point. https://www.denverpost.com/2017/08/25/colorado-marijuana-traffic-fatalities/
Weed combined with alcohol really impairs judgement. Weed driving is illegal. Why legalize and tempt people to do it. Look at alcohol and behavior.

I believe that profits via gambling are down because of the economy which is now on the rebound. Some states were still suffering a slight recession as early as 2016. I know that in 2008 Vegas really took it hard. I had a friend working on a high rise there and one day they just shut down the job and sent everyone home with the building 50% complete.
I now dont have to go to Vegas to place a football bet.
