I don't know because I never played there before. But they're impossible to move around, so I end up just getting real stiff from having to sit in the exact same position. They need roller chairs.

Best poker room chairs for me so far are at Harrah's St Charles MO.

Nice and wide, deep comfortable padding on the seat and good back support.

I have always hated the Bellegio and a whole lot of that hate was directed at the chairs. The old chairs were wobbly unstable pieces of worn out crap. I stopped going there because I found the chairs so uncomfortable compared to a nice sturdy 4 legged chair.

Anyway I was there a couple weeks ago and played for a couple hours after the grand reopening with brand new chairs. And yes the new chairs suck! They don't slide at all and the tables are close enough together where you are always trying (or needing) to slide to let a waitress, dealer, other player through which is ULTRA distracting.

Other than the no slide feature they are once again adjustable post style chairs. So 6 months from now after they have been broken in by countless fatass poker players they will probably take on their trademark "wobble" and be the most uncomfortable chairs imaginable.

Next trip I'll be at the MGM. Best chairs in town and extremely well run.

Proper poker room chairs should be small enough such that they can be turned around with the chair backs resting against the table so you can lean forward into them.

This pretty much exactly sums up why I hate them.

IMO the best chairs are the ones you don't notice because they're comfortable. For instance, I have no idea what the chairs are like at Commerce even after playing there a few times, so I assume they're good.

After sitting 26 hours in three days in the great chairs of the Wynn I couldn't sit even for 15 minutes in those crappy chairs at the Commerce!
