What does Bellagio spread regularly above 30-60? Not the 1000+ mixed games, the stuff in the middle. If I recall correctly from my last visit, it was 60-120/100-200/200-400. Is that correct? If so, are all of those typically going on weekend evenings?

The bellagio has every limit you could possibly want (especially on the weekend). Last time i went I recall they had a 30,000 60,000 hold em game going on. I don't think you'll have a problem finding a game that's right 4 u.

60-120 seemed to go 24/7 last time I was there.

yes. We both know u can't and never will be able to play in a game that big. I was just using it as an example. The point was that if u have the money they're have a table that's the bottom line.

actually, your statement about any level isn't true. They don't compete with the mirage which is why they have no 10/20 or 20/40 etc.

Apparently not.

I miss Jim Brier's posts from those games. Oh, well....

It depends. Usually there's either 60-120 or 80-160, depending on the time of the year. It's kind of slow now, but in the spring, or around one of their tournaments, you may see bigger games spread.

I have never played higher than 75-150, but I do prefer games where the small blind is two-thirds the big blind.

true they don't compete with the mirage, but he was asking about higher limits like 100 200

They had a 100-200 game going when I was there last Wednesday morning at around 7AM. If it's spread then I'm assuming it runs pretty much all the time.

The games going during non-tournament times are 60-120 and 100-200 recently. I haven't seen any 200-400 games, but they may go sometimes.

Now that it is tournament time, there are several 60 games, several 100 games, and some bigger ones too.

Thanks for the responses. I'm going to be in Vegas this weekend (Dec. 5-7, Fri aft - Sun aft). Instead of my normal haunt, the Hard Rock, I'm going to give The Palms a try this time. If all goes as planned, I'll run into Paris Hilton there. I'm taking a video camera just in case. Usually I just play craps and blackjack in Vegas (plenty of opportunity for poker at home), but I'm hoping to convince a couple of buddies to try some poker w/ me this time. If any of you guys are in Vegas and would like to get together for some cards or drinks anytime this weekend, just send me a PM.

Hey, dude, since you get to go to Vegas and I have to work this weekend /images/graemlins/frown.gif, I have a few requests:

1. When you sit down in a game on the upper podium section, which is even roped off from "non-players" (this would actually exclude you in this case, though), make sure you let them know how we do it in N. California. With your best, booming voice, yell "ACK-SHAWN!!!!!!!!!!"

2. When playing 30-60, reach accross the table and try to yank Roy Cooke's mustache off. I'm laying 2 to 1 that it's a glue-on job.

3. Seat yourself on Sklanksy's left, and keep asking him who he likes in the 3rd race at Golden Gate Park (preferably while pawing at his Racing Form). Also, keep harassing him with "brain teasers." This could be absolutely priceless.

4. Discuss the Iraqi war with Mason. I remember when I was out there when the war was getting 24/7 CNN coverage. He was more transfixed on those tele's than Clark is on a late-night run to Olympic Gardens.

5. Tell Paris that I said "Hi" and ask her when she's coming back to the Bay to see her favorite Chemist.

6. Have a few drinks with Clark. He's good people.
