bellagio poker rate went up?

The Bellagio rate was raised a few weeks ago (if not before). Also, none of the poker rooms in Vegas guarantee their poker rates. For example, when a big convention is in town, or it's a big holiday weekend, I wouldn't expect any of the major hotels to honor their standard poker rates.

that I always assumed, just didn't think the raised default rate was common knowledge

ended up finding a sick deal at hotels.com for sahara. it's going to almost exclusively be a card-playing trip, so I don't mind the shithole/inconvenience factor. just thought I'd get confirmation and give the board a headsup
