Siena has 10X odds. If you like to shoot, they seldom have a crowd.
For road conditions, you might try the CHP office in Truckee. I have
never had occasion to try that, but they should be as up on it as
anyone.

Driving conditions: CA and NV DOT web sites, asking the bell desk at
your casino, and this page at weather.com:

VP players will tell you that crap odds increase variance without
changing the ER, and that therefore you shouldn't care. That being
said, pepp and atlantis have 3-4-5 if I remember correctly. pepp games
are $5, atlantis has some $2 games during slow periods.

thanks for the responses from all, very helpful.
If someone knows what the ER and EV for crap games with differing odds
(strictly playing the pass line and laying full odds), I would be
interested, I assumed the expectation was better as the odds increase
since the house edge is reduced as the odds increase (see
wizardofodds.com).
People should embrace higher variance; Higher variance=more excitement

The ER of the game only depends on how much you bet on the line: the
odds bets are paid true odds. They only cost nothing if you dismiss
the short-term risk of ruin.
Now, if you want to bet a given amount per throw, it's certainly
better to do so in a way that allows you to bet the minimum on the
line.
How the odds bets affect the way your game is rated can certainly be
taken into account.

I don't know about the Atlantis; but the Peppermill usually has $2
minimums (at least one table of which will increase to $5 depending on
day of week and/or time of day). In either case it's DOUBLE ODDS
unless you bet $25+. Then they'll give you 3-4-5 odds.
I haven't been there in a while but the Sands used to have 10X ODDS.
Siena and Boomtown MAY also have 10X ODDS.

I was at the Pepp for the week-end, and I confirm that they had $2
quite often as well, w/ double odds. At some point they had 2 tables
open, one $2 and one $5.
