The pros (big guns) will come over and play 4k/8k mixed games with the 1k/2k blinds for NL and PL.

i appreciate you pulling me off ignore photoc... LOL
yeah the 1k/2k blinds are what im getting at here... are these "hidden rooms" common on the strip? if your primarily a poker player aka notawhalefish - how do you get yourself into one of these? does luxor, mandalay bay or even the ventiaian have one of these rooms?

and lastly, have you ever heard of omaha or 5 or 7-card stud played at these high levels?

What is it about my post to your question you didnt get? I answered it entirely including your questions here. I'm unaware they have been going over to Alladdin to play recently, as we see this group most nites. Tonite they were in there as per usual. Playing 2000-4000 limit. But they'll go as high as you want. Just ask. Your welcome to join in I'm sure.

And there is nothing "hidden" about this room. But it is private as far as people being aloud to just stroll on in.

as for luxor, manadlay bay, or venetian, fugetaboutit. If they get a game higher than 4-8 it's a miracle. And these players would tear apart those dealers. (ok so I'm exagerating a little, but not much)

as mentioned....venetian does not currently even have poker....luxor and mandalay typically don't get many games much higher than 4/8 going.


I think the original poster seriously overestimates the amount of high-roller poker money around Las Vegas.
Watch enough of those 'Vegas Whales and High-Rollers' shows on the Travel Channel and you might get that impression.


The fact is, most of the poker-rooms in Las Vegas have 2/4 and 4/8 limit.
Bellagio has the biggest games (in that 15/30 and 30/60 games are going all the time...and they will have the higher limit games too).
Mirage and Wynn also have these medium-limit games as well.
MGM seemed to be iffy about even getting a 10/20 game going regularly.


I was really surprised myself actually.
I really thought there would be 10/20 and higher at like 7 different places when I went to Vegas but this just isn't the case.
I was truly amazed at all the 2/4 limit that's out there (seriously, what's the freaking point?)


Again, I was new to Vegas so didn't really know what to expect...just thought there would be greater availability of games higher than 4/8. My expectations were WAY off.

Unless my inturpretation is off, it sounds like a few people on here are disappointed in the number of high limit games offered in Vegas, yet they don't even play these games. I don't belive anyone has had a problem finding one of these games anytime they want, and they're all stated above.

Good luck and I'll see you at the tables.

The most recent they have been over there was during the WSOP. They've been there a few different occasions since opening the upstairs section.

Bellagio has a seperate room and MGM has a room upstairs which is also separate. Those are the only ones that I know of
