I played 10/20 very briefly w/him at bellagio in nov, still there, had at least 30k.

i played with him ("Duke of Fremont St") during the WSOP. what I noticed is the big roll/rail combo. Seemed obvious he was trying to attract some attention from the gold digging bimbos trolling the Wynn. Nice guy though. Some kid next to him was falling down drunk and he kept grabbing the kid to keep him from falling off his chair.

I played at the Wynn a few times in November in the 2/5 nl game which was very profitable.There was a 2 hour period where I played with a table of decent players but took that as a chance to learn.
I remeber playing with the fat, white guy probly in his 40's who was running his mouth about how good he was, poker is so easy. and also said he played for the Raiders and could count a 6 deck shoe in blackjack and had almost put casinos out of business (which amazed everyone except me I can count 6 deck in m y sleep but so could a well trained monkey) Anyway he flopped TP checked it, I turned a set and stacked him when he rivered two pair and he got pissed. He tried to run over a few calling stations, cursed to himself about how bad they were for callign with TPNK etc and continued to piss money away.
There was this cowboy guy in his 60's named Jack who apparently plays there every day. he handles his chips better than anyone Ive seen but I soon relaized he isnt as good as I initially thought.
The weirest thing I saw was this black guy dressed in rags bought in for what must have been 6 k in a 2/5 game. But he didnt have a few chips and a stack of hundred he had all red chips piled up all over the place. he played maybe 3 pots in 5 hours. It was just really strange.

A lot of donks passed thru who were truly clueless. At times it really played like a 50 nl party game. I can't wait to go back to Vegas.

Wynn 5-10: Most of the players in this game are regulars that buy-in from $1K-$6K and a few who buy-in more (like Grant, you will know who I'm talking about, he will make sure of it, commenting on how awesome he is).

30-ish, long blond hair? he was buying in with 30k in the bellagio 10-20 last time i was in vegas back in april. better part of a year later and he's moved down? guess he's not as good as he says he is.

Yes that is Grant you are speaking of. He actually hasn't necesarily moved down. He is a very smart player, but tilts very easily. He still plays 10-20 a bunch as well as high stake stud games which are his specialty.

Please, I am the best chip trick artist at Wynn [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Good old ADD and OCD make sure of it.

As for Duke, he is fun to play with. I love talking with him also. He talks about his 3-4 mistress's and the stories of all of them running into eachother and breaking it off with each of them. Oh, and going to Hawaii with one of them. Ahh, good times.

good review....the 5/10 Wynn game is generally much more passive than the 10/20 Bellagio.....the bad thing about this is that you more infrequently get those raging off-the-hook gamble games at the Wynn.....the good thing is that there are nights when I am literally the only person at the table who bluffs and everyone else may as well be playing with their cards face up....Larry, have we played together?.....I look like this
