Re: New Bellagio Poker Room Opens Wednesday Night (4/27)
They may make more money from low-limit (than high-limit) poker but they make much more from high-limit poker players playing other (carnival) games!
I think most casinos have to look at poker as a marketing tool that may pay for itself. If they don't have a poker room they may lose customers to other places (and therefore lose overall business). If they have one it may add a little to the casino winnings but it may increase the revenue of the other games.
Unfortunatly it is difficult to calculate and extract these numbers and only the best run places may really be able to take advantage of this.
