Re: Looking for Uncapped NLHE, PLO or Mixed games (w/badugi) in Vegas
[ QUOTE ]
According to the floor at Wynn, casinos need to be 'licensed' or some such in every game they spread. Wynn doesn't have Badugi in their license list or rule book, so they are not legally allowed to spread it. We whine about it from time to time when getting the little 4/8 mixed game together, but as of yet they have not added it.

I discussed this with AJ and Arnold last night, you were mostly correct except that the Wynn's position is that Badugi is not an officially licensed game with the gambling commission anywhere in Las Vegas at this stage. Arnold added that it hadn't been submitted for approval yet. Apparently Bellagio has been spreading Badugi without regard for the commission according to them.
In reality I would suspect that the truth exists somewhere between the OP's paragraph and the Wynn's official position. If anyone has an insider at the Gambling commission then it would be interesting to find out the truth.
Additionally I learned last night that BOTE has been running at the Rio as 6/12 now, and they are trying to start a regular TORSE 30/60 game at the Wynn. I've told AJ to call me whenever the game gets off the ground, I hope to have a seat waiting for me.
