Benny Binion, the original founder is quoted as having said "If everyone bet at full odds, we couldn't keep the lights on in this place."

Aside from comps, it's easy to get your money's worth in ice cold beer at a 50 cent minimum table. Good times. That Vegas of the past is long gone though.
I would like those numbers. I never drink when I play though, craps is like a job for me at this point. Best I have found is 8,9,10x odds anywhere lately.
