Only in duration, not in underlying concept. Presumably you think my
exaggerated 1 minute example represented an unrealistically short
deadline. But if you're an out-of-town visitor -- and face it, most
Strip casinos are targeted squarely at out-of-town visitors -- a 60
day deadline on a sports ticket might very well be similarly
unrealistic.

Different scenario, I believe:

1) In a typical casino promotion drawing, players have no equity
invested; they haven't bought tickets for the drawing. Different from
booking a bet with cold hard cash.

2) In a drawing, other people are involved in the drawing; usually if
the drawn winner isn't available, another ticket is drawn. A bet is a
1:1 deal between the casino and the customer.
