    Reno Sportsbooks

    Anyone have any info on the wager size that these books take? Wouldn't imagine Atlantis Reno takes a lot with the lines they hang.

    Are there any books with a good variety of 2nd half CFB spreads?

    Are the only two places worth watching games the Atlantis Reno and Peppermill?

    Cal Neva isn't bad for a book. Lots of tv's and action. A ton of degens therre as well. They used to serve some cheap $2-$5 food at the sports deli.

    Peepermill is hands down the best of Reno. Like the sandwich deli beside the book as well.

    Im kind of partial to CAL Neva, as it's the first ever legal sportsbook, I've made a wager at. It's very run down, Similar to old freemont like the golden gate or el cortez.

    It's easily #4 and I agree with the list above as the only 3 resorts similar to vegas books are Peppermill, Atlantis, and Grand Sierra(formerly Reno Hilton).

    The downtown strip is a bit of a ghost town compared to 10 years ago, but still fun, and rooms are usually cheap in Reno.

    Grand Sierra - felt like the Hilton in Vegas (used to be a Hilton?), didn't have a board where you could read lines from your seats, only book in Reno where seating was plentiful. Huge book.

    Atlantis Reno - Small book, very nice. Amazing lines. Was given the evil eye from a manager for a $200 bet on a 2nd half under.

    Peppermill - impossible to find seating, nice book, tries to be fancy, poles in the sportsbook that block views. Good lines, didn't care about a $1000 wager.

    Eldorado - reminded Tomato of the books in downtown Vegas (Binions, Four Queens, etc.) Pedestrian books with no luxury and about 80 seats. Not worth your time. Tomato didn't see the rest of the downtown books but imagined they were more of the same.
