Re: Getting Turned Off of Playing in Vegas...
I ran bad in Vegas for the entire duration of my WSOP trip...down $1100 over 9 days, a decent hit on my bankroll. I played a lot at the limits you described. Did I think the Vegas players were much better than what I was accustomed to playing? Not really.
I think you're using monetary results to gauge "how good the games are." Base that on how people play, not on how much money you win or lose. Remember, you can be down 30BB or more in a fantastic game, e.g. 8 to a flop and 4 to a river. You can also be up in a game full of solid TAGs.
Tough games definitely exist. Fortunately, in Vegas, you have a fantastic opportunity to practice game selection.
