Larry David hit the nail pretty much on the head here. Since I've spent a good amount of visitor time at the Wynn (one of the casinos I play at regularly while in Vegas), I would like to throw my comments in there as well.

Players/buyins:

1-3 NL: I have spent most of my time at this game, and think that it is really one of the best games on the strip in terms of game selection, if not the best (for NLHE, I think the 10/20 half-kill O8 game is the best at the Wynn). You get to play extremely deep stack poker and leverage your post-flop play ability against players who are used to shortstack poker or online poker.

As Larry said, the majority of the players are college-aged nits or passive/tight players (similar in style of course). They make it known when they have top pair, and routinely c/c c/r with sets and nothing else. They are straightforward, easy players with tons of tells. They will usually buy-in from $100-200, which is not nearly enough to play in this game. The average buy-in at night when the game is average is about $350. There are two regulars that I know of that sit with well over $5,000, but play absurdly tight and just have it there for show (perhaps Larry can confirm). I always cover the table, up to $800-1000 depending on the lineup. If the table is mainly shortstacks and average stacks, I will buy-in for $500 with a few hundreds behind. You will frequently be the best player at this level at all times, and I highly recommend it.

2-5 NL: The average stack at this table is approximately $500, as most of the people here are graduates from the $1-3 game. The $1-3 game gets a long ass list for it, and some people sit $2-5 until they can get into $1-3 and play super-tight. The game is usually a B- on the game selection scale, except on the weekends, when it is either extremely tough and deep or loose and full of rebuyers. I think you know which one to look out for.

5-10: I have never played this high, and have only spectated it slightly. Larry's comments are likely to be spot on from what I have seen, however.
