Title: Vegas; what to play and where? Post by: Junior Senior on June 05, 2011, 09:33:13 PM Hi, off to Vegas for a week in Mid June. I intend to play most days but as I am going with the wife it may just be 3 tourneys. I can't decide on where to play. I am flexible and tempted by the WSOP side events but the juice is 10% and don't know if I can be arsed with the Rio. Thinking I might play at Venetian. Anyone got any tips or ideas on where the best value comps will be?
Cheers Title: Re: Vegas; what to play and where? Post by: GreekStein on June 05, 2011, 09:54:35 PM isnt 10% juice standard?

Post by: Longy on June 05, 2011, 10:03:41 PM isnt 10% juice standard? 10% juice is amazing in Vegas. http://www.allvegaspoker.com/tournaments.php is the list of daily tournies outside of WSOP time. Oh hi there 20%+ rake. and this is the festivals going on (http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc440/tjjacks03/vegas62.jpg) (http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc440/tjjacks03/vegas62.jpg) Title: Re: Vegas; what to play and where? Post by: Junior Senior on June 05, 2011, 10:06:46 PM isnt 10% juice standard? 3% at Venetian apparently Title: Re: Vegas; what to play and where? Post by: Longy on June 05, 2011, 10:10:36 PM isnt 10% juice standard? 3% at Venetian apparently Not really add $10 onto that for the optional add on that everyone takes for extra 20% chips.

I played Caesars Megastack series - 12 noon and 4pm Binions Classic - I cashed in 11th in the $150 event 2, events going on throughout June, also at Golden Nugget Aria Deepstack - I final tabled but went out 9th (7 paid) in the 7pm, also one at 1pm MGM Grand - 11.05 and 7.05pm - $80 and soft field (I cashed 3rd for $443) Venetian was outside my bankroll but is well recommended (they have Venetian Extravaganza on) Dave Title: Re: Vegas; what to play and where?

Post by: Simon Galloway on June 07, 2011, 07:52:45 AM Anyone have any decent tips on the cash games? Where is the most action, widest range of stakes etc. What limits you are after? 1/2, 1/3, 2/5 nlh, plo. ty!! Not sure why you ask for the widest range of stakes.... Generally 1/2 1/3 will vary every day. For instance you can go into a random cardroom and their 1/2 could be full of guys on a stag weekend moving all in blind every hand. Or it could be a complete rock garden. It's a simple case of moving around until you find a good game. There is certainly no need to stay in a bad game for very long. The Rio deserves a special mention though. The WSOP circus usually ensures these are the juiciest games imaginable. But to give you an idea of how they play, 2/5 PLO sat down with a grand might be considered deepstack poker anywhere else. With the nutters in the Rio and a Mississippi straddle as well, the game plays MUCH bigger. Now you will be frequently getting that grand into the middle pre flop. |
