Stud in Vegas
Hola all,
I probably should post this in the B+M forum, but I figured I would try here first, since well.. this is the stud forum. It has been a year ( an eternity in my standards ) since I have been out to Vegas. That is all changing August 17th. Is there any place left that I can find a regular stud game? ( I don't care if it is $1-5... and actually.. since this is a 'drinking trip' [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img].. $1-5 might be a good choice [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] ) I used to like playing in the Mirage $10-20 games ( or $5-10 ) but last I heard those were all but dead. Last July when I was in Vegas, I went into the Bellagio at about 8:00 in the morning, I asked the floor what Stud games were going on, and he kinda chuckled. He shows me the stud clipboard signup list, not only wasn't there a single stud game ( in one of the poker meccas mind you ), there wasn't even a single name, not 1 on the list, at ANY limit ) So Anywhoo, With the new casinos now up ( Wynn, nugget ( well cardroom ), etc. ) ) I was just wondering where I might find a stud game?

Re: Stud in Vegas
I've never been but I think the consensus in the forum is that Stud is dead in Vegas.

Re: Stud in Vegas
I can never figure that out. A dinky town like AC can have 75/150 games going, but Vegas has nada, unless you play big mixed games.

I think Excalibur had 1-5 stud when I was there in Feb but I didnt play it and don't know if it was going the whole time.

CJC,
I played some 5-10 at the MGM Grand about a year ago on a visit. They only had a couple of stud games running, not sure if any was 1-5. - MAC |

Re: Stud in Vegas
Stud isn't dead in the sense that there are NO games, but...
I think a number of the smaller rooms spread $1-5 stud for the tourists still, even though now most of them want to play hold'em. When I was just there, the Bellagio had 2! $40/80 Stud games, and 1 $20/40 game. Of course this is during the WSOP, but I think there is still generally a $20/40 game most of the time, from what I hear. The $20/40 while I was there looked awful but I didn't play. The $40/80 that I watched while waiting for a seat at 30/60 HE seemed pretty good, but mostly due to one fish, so who knows in general. |

Re: Stud in Vegas
Both the 40-80 and 20-40 stud games at Bellagio were good while I was there, particularly the 40.
