Super Bowl doesn't go Vegas' way

LAS VEGAS (AP) - Las Vegas sports book directors said the Super Bowl didn't quite swing their way.

In fact, the New England Patriots' 28-24 win against the Seattle Seahawks represented the worst case scenario for their betting business said the directors of sports books at the Wynn and Westgate Las Vegas on Monday.

Johnny Avello from Wynn and Jay Kornegay from Westgate said if not for proposition bets, their losses might have been greater. Avello said his sports book lost money. Kornegay said he eked out a small win.

Nevada officials report the state's 191 sports books kept $3.3 million out of the total $116 million wagered on the Super Bowl.

That amount is less than last year's record-breaking bets totaling $119.4 million. The sports books kept $19.7 million last year.
