Astros World Series Win over Dodgers Cost Las Vegas Sportsbooks Record $11.4M
太空人擊敗道奇讓賭城運動簽賭大失血
The Houston Astros' World Series victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers cost
Nevada sportsbooks a record-setting $11.4 million on baseball betting in
November, according to David Purdum of ESPN.com.
根據ESPN David Purdum的報導，今年世界大賽太空人擊敗道奇讓賭城棒球運動簽賭創下
破紀錄的損失，1140萬鎂。
Those sportsbooks recovered nicely in football and basketball betting,
however, as "Nevada sportsbooks actually won $9.8 million overall" in the
month, the "52nd straight month the books have come out on top" dating back
to July 2013.
那些運動簽賭在美式足球跟籃球上有撈回來，事實上那個月運動簽賭總共還賺了980萬
鎂，是從2013年七月以來連續52月賺錢了。
The first 11 months of 2017 have netted the sportsbooks $213.6 million, per
Purdum, which would make it the fourth most profitable year in history.
2017年前11個月運動簽賭累計賺了2億1360萬鎂，本來可以是排名運動簽賭史上排名第四賺
錢的一年。
The Astros' romp through the postseason and seven-game victory over the
Dodgers cost sportsbooks the most money on baseball since 1999 when the
Atlanta Braves' World Series triumph over the New York Yankees cost Las Vegas
the previous high of $6.2 million.
太空人闖進季後賽，7戰打贏道奇，讓運動簽賭商賠了自1999年以來最多錢的一次；1999年
那次是亞特蘭大勇士打敗紐約洋基，讓賭城賠了620萬鎂。
(threebig網友打臉: 應該是洋基贏勇士)

According to Purdum, Houston's run included a number of wild betting stories,
most notably the infamous "Bettor X" who placed winning bets on Games 1-6,
winning an estimated $10 million in the process.
根據ESPN記者說，太空人這邊有一些人瘋狂的下注，最有名的是"Bettor X"，大概賺了
1000萬鎂。(Winning bets on Games 1-6不太確定怎麼翻，有請大家給意見)
(terminator3網友:一到六戰都贏)
A lot of money moved around in general, per Purdum:
據記者說，"很多金錢的流動~"
"More money was bet on Astros-Dodgers than any other World Series that
[Johnny Avello, executive director of the Wynn race and sports] has ever
booked during his 30-plus-year Las Vegas career. At William Hill's Nevada
sportsbooks, the money bet on this year's World Series was triple the amount
that was wagered on the 2016 World Series. The handle was massive, and so
were the books' losses."
「這太空-道奇的世界大賽的賭注金比史上任何一次世界大賽都還要多，一位運動簽賭公司
人員說，他在30多年的賭城生涯從沒看過。另外一家簽賭商說這次的賭金是上次的世界大
賽賭金的三倍；下注的賭金破紀錄，這次簽賭商賠錢也是破紀錄。」
