I'm wondering why the resort seems to be having so few tables 27?? Borgata will more than double theirs with the new expansion. Also - what happens if the other big cash game players don't migrate over from Bellagio?? Harman, Reeses etc. Are their enough tourists to keep Daniel busy???

Im sure Daniel is getting paid enough money from the Hotel to make it a +EV move

Amazes me that Vegas can support that many ultra luxury casinos. there must be more money in this world than I thought.

I don't think Vegas can fill all their tables during the week. Thus the need to balance the number of tables for peak capacity without long waits - I'm sure they provisioned for expansion if necessary.

I'll be in Vegas the 1st week in May to check out the action.

Uh, yeah. I guess there is. What do you hear from the Yokum family these days?

That's probably why Bellagio is expanding and adding a more private high-limit area. Let the competition for the big players begin!

When are they expanding and how many tables? Also, do you know if they are moving the room or merely expanding it in its current location?

Looks like the website is very bare for now. No pics of the hotel , but then again it's probably still under construction. Golf course should be amazing!!

I was at Bellagio this past weekend and was told that the current room is expanding, into the sportsbook I believe.

They are going to knock down the wall on the left side and get rid of the slot machines over there so they can add 10 tables, and create some sort of semiprivate area for high-limit. Which means that the current high-limit area will become regular tables. It is going to start soon and take about 2 months. This is all according to what a floorperson told me the other day.
