the 6/12 and 10/20 were good, not outstanding but generally pretty good, some drunken players, some normaly poor players, etc. The 5/5 PLO8 game seemed very tight and beatable.

What are the satellites running for the smaller events?. I hope to get into many of the WSOP 2006 (yes, its a while) smaller events buying doing 10 seater sats. Do they run them often? Any idea what the chip count and blind structure is on these sats? Btw- how big is that freaking WSOP room at the rio anyways? Any info you can provide is appreciated.

P.S.- The final table of the main event. Is that going to be held at the Rio or Binions?

ME Final Table is at Binions.

There are no $10 sats. They are all 50+. They award X number of $ in tourney entry chips.

I think you mean the super satellites, right? The next day's event satellite I want to play in is $275.

do you know what limits and how many tables are spread at rio? i'll be staying there from the 19th to the 25th.

Therewere tons of sats and cash games running when i went down there, seemed like they had tables set up with the buy in, all u had to do was walk up and plunk down your $$, they also had line for sats, it looked like the line was for the most frequently run sat, prolly the $ 175 or $ 225 buyin, and when they got 10 they sent them to a table. There were also tables with 1 or 2 people sitting at them waiting for others to join in to start a sat. I hope to get down there and at least sit in a cash game and maybe try a sat or something. Within the next week.

The 2-5 NL game I played in yesterday was crappy. Maybe two softer players, but nothing to write home about, and certainly nowhere near as much $$ to be made as at MGM, Aladdin, or elsewhere in the same 2-5 NL games. The guy on my immediate left said he'd placed 24th in the $1500 event that began June 3, and his play seemed to back up the assertion from what little I saw.

The lists were all F*d up on Monday for the cash games, the dealers were incredibly sub-par, and a few other things just sort of made me not want to continue to play there. Cocktail waitresses were impossible to find. That said, I did see some larger money games that looked like they had plenty of gambool to them, including the PLO games and a 20/40. So maybe it's just a matter of hitting the right games...
