Default Star Gazing at the Bellagio?

My girlfriend has a 2 day seminar in Vegas this week. She won't play higher than 3/6 and I know the smallest game at the Bellagio is 4/8. However, she wants to see the room and asked me if there was any chance that she would see any poker celebs...and if so, when is the best time to see them in action.

Does anyone know which, if any, she would most likely see?

just look up in the top section there and you will see the high rollers....also if you get a table 4/8 towards the rear exit you will see them coming and going out of there

I once saw noted poker authority Ed Miller. But he blew me off when I asked for his autograph.

I saw Negreanu, too. I also saw Drew Carey in the poker room. And Queen Latifah playing roulette.

Saw and heard Sam Grizzle. I love listening to that guy, he can really shovel it.

I think it depends if there are any big tournaments going on outside of LV. Last time I was there I saw Phil I. and Paul D. When Phil was walking out of the Bellagio poker room some guy asked him to sign a WPT post card and he obliged. I like to go over by the cashier's cage to sneak a peak into the high-limit area.

That's what I was thinking, Tank.

I was hoping some of the locals/regulars would see this and chime in as to whether or not there would be any chance of her seeing anyone this week.

lowroller,
looks like there's a $10,000 NLHE event at the Commerce starting Friday (CA State Poker Championships). Probably a lot of the pros will be there but those who bust out Friday might be back playing in LV on Saturday.

I'll be in LV this weekend too, although it doesn't look like i'll get to play poker too much.

gl,
tank
