Re: Any \"trout\" zone in Vegas ?
I like staying at Monte Carlo for the location and the poker rate. You are correct, the games are not fantastic, but they are very beatable. The games during the day are full of the same people, and some of them are decent but by no means are they great, and the rest are awful. After a day of playing you should figure out who's who, then you should be able to do fairly well. When I was there the regulars played during the day - different crowd at night, lots of guys wanting to either try the game or say to their buddies at home they played HE in Vegas. I enjoyed playing the kill hands really agressively, regulars often tended to balk at the price....
If you have the stomach for good LL games, take the tram to Bellagio at night and play in the $4-8 - its wild and crazy and can be very profitable. Like others have mentioned the MGM is good, but I haven't found it to a fish tank.
Enjoy. Wish I was there.
