Re: Luxor 1/2 $50 buy in?
I just came back from LV and my friend and I played at the Luxor for about 9 hrs one day. It's a very pleasant poker rooms with friendly dealers (particularly the older guys). I left with $400, mainly thanks to a nice Dutch kid who just couldn't fold overpairs. :-) Now, what I liked about this game is that the players were for the most part sociable tourists, instead of the local degenerates we saw at Binions and Golden Nugget. It was definitely a nice change of pace not to have to wander if the guy next to you in the square glasses (prison issue?) with a sing-song voice did 3-5 for some sort of sexual crime involving kids (any locals who play at the Nugget may know him). ;-) Basically, if poker is a social activity for you, the Luxor is great - you just won't win (or lose) a whole lot.
