Re: Ceasars poker room--stupid is as stupid does!
I thought it was already pretty well known that dealers make significantly more money at 3/6 and 4/8 games then they do in the big-money games.
Obviously not everyone in this thread was aware of that.
Also - I do think that 'attracting the star players' can have a positive effect on a room.
Negreneau's games at the Wynn might not have brought in much traffic.
But we have seen several posts on here about 'where to see the big-name TV guys' play and they always get told to just go to the Bellagio.
All that gawking when Chan or Harman walks into Bobby's room.
I do suspect that some of the customers in Bellagio's room are there in hopes of seeing some famous person (as pathetic as that may seem).
I don't know if the impact is any more than neglgible though (as Bellagio would still get good traffic even without the big game).
