Founded by Michael “Roxy” Roxborough in 1982, Las Vegas Sports Consultants (LVSC) is far and away the world's most important odds-maker for sporting events. Comprised of an elite team of top handicappers, LVSC currently provides the “opening line” to roughly 80% of sportsbooks in Las Vegas, and countless more overseas.

Roxy” Roxborough and the History of the Las Vegas Sports Consultants

Before LVSC, odds-making in Las Vegas was highly decentralized. According to Jeremy Martin's article on the history of sports betting , odds-makers in the early 1980s kept their records in notebooks. Often times, they would bet into very same lines they set – an obvious conflict of interest. Roxborough, however, played the role of a businessman, and helped to dispel the image of the shifty and shady odds-maker.
