Stupid Bellagio

We had 8 players who wanted to start a 4/8 mixed game on sunday night and there were dealers sitting around saying they would deal it, like 10 open tables, but the floors wouldn't start us a game as they said they don't spread a mixed game lower than 40/80 by policy. Such a freaking joke. Mason even tried pulling some strings to no avail. He did say if the head guy was there he would understand and spread the game, but the peons don't understand the situation well enough to allow it. Missing out on a table full of rake and lots of generous tipping. Good call morons.

So frustrating.

This was basically the impression of the management of the room that I got from being there. My impression of the Wynn floor is that they would've handled this differently.

you can bet your ass the dealers have heard about low limit 2+2 mixed games, and were drooling over the opportunity

Sounds typical of the Bellagio. Best games, horrible floor management. Did you take the game to the Wynn instead?

I have never had a good experience with the floor at Bellagio.
Doesn't surprise me.

Here is the difference between the Wynn and the Bellagio:

Bell=threw out Shant for placing side bets on the color of the flop.

Wynn=allowed the same bets and took side action.

The Bellagio seems determined to have a stick up their ass.

"Missing out on a table full of rake and lots of generous tipping."

Last 2+2 magoo-fest at the Bike, I win a pot with A-K unimproved to Josh W.'s A-Q. I tip about half the profit and Josh matches my tip. Dealer looks at him funny and he says, "I had a good hand too. A-Q suited."

Frustrating and a shame.

That is hilarious. Who does shant think he is trying to gamble in casino? That is definitely a no no!

Sometimes the person telling you not to gamble is not who you'd expect. There are times when you should not gamble, such as when you're under 21 or had too much to drink... when you're lonely or depressed
