    LOL when was the last time you guys were in Reno? I was there for March Madness and stayed at Atlantis. There and the Peppermill had a 1k max bet on sides and 500 on totals. Plus when you bet over like 300 you have to stand there and wait to get your bet approved for like 5 minutes. Kind of a joke really.

    atlantis and peppermill sportsbooks are not in the same league as circus circus/calneva, and smaller shops are always wary of college hoops action because it's the most corrupt

    I can see CalNeva taking bit bets, but I don't know, I was there and that place is a dump. It was like going back to the 1970s. There were no digital screens for lines and the ceiling seemed really low. They used chalk and paper just like some back room bookie would do. The tellers were rude and some of them barely spoke English. The place was filled with old people smoking cigars, full of degens. But we all know the downtown area is very run down. The resort-type casinos are so much nicer, especially the Peppermill where the sportsbook is way bigger, more tellers, and a more open environment.

    I used to like going in calneva for free coffee and donuts on college football saturday mornings
    nice thing they did, and it cost so little

    one time the place was deserted at 8am when I was putting in bets, I heard a scream and figured mrs milwaukee hit something big 100 feet away. We both had a laugh cuz she hit like $200 but thought it was more

    I said you made me walk all the way here for a $200 win when I just bet $4k

    Does anyone know if I am missing any Reno books here? I'm trying to figure out exactly how many outs there are in Reno and where the lines are from or if they are an independent out?

    So far I have these:

    Peppermill
    Grand Sierra
    Atlantis
    Cal Nevada
    Eldorado
    Circus Circus (MGM Lines)

    Am I missing anymore sportsbooks within Reno?
    I'm assuming there are Cal-Neva Kiosks in various locations around Reno, right?
