Pot limit game at the Venetian?
 
Anyone interested in a 5/5 PL min $200 buy in? (Not that there is one, but seeing if there would be any interest.) What about a max?

If it's not mentioned as hold 'em, then it must be hold 'em. If it's any other game, the game is named.

I thought this was a given.

Thank you for bringing it to our attention.

5/5 went yesterday. The 1/2 NL day games I sat in there yesterday were atrocious. Weak-tight as others had said. Other cardrooms -- esp. the smaller ones -- had great 1/2 games going though.

I think the locals tend to move around, which means games are great where there aren't many, and dry up when they show up, maybe? The games at Mandalay Bay that I've played in have been great, even if I'm way down in them due to running bad. The V and CP haven't been so good, for me, anyway.

Don, I'd like to see you and Jay talk about the different chip games here and get others opinions. I'm not a limit player much anymore, but according to Barry T., I will be someday, again.

This is not a concern for non-standard or "other" games. The locals all flock to the tables when they are spread regardless who is sitting in. Historically I have found it very easy to start a mixed or exotic game providing I have two friends who are willing to start the table with me, we usually have a full table within the hour in Vegas.

This is slightly off topic, but I feel like it's worth noting the V will spread pretty much any game you want right now. I was there last week for work, and the room was super slow - we played dealers choice 2-4 handed for a couple hours late night. Everything from badugi to PL08, and the dealers (al/cheryl) were outstanding. Good times had by all.

CJ.. Is there any particular reason you want them to spread 5/5 PLHE, instead of just the 2/5NL they normally do...??? Plus, if you got some clout there, get em to spread some LO8... I'm tired of walking all the way to the Wynn or sit w/ the fogies at the Mirage... meh...

Well, I think that the tourists might think a game where the pot is "limited" and they aren't in danger of losing their entire stack on the flop, might attract more of them. Granted, the skill level for a good pot limit player is higher than the average tourist, by several degrees, but they don't know that. It's strictly a psychological thing. "Something in between 4/8 limit and no limit? Let's try that, Margaret."

I'll pass along the PLO8 idea. I know that the V is trying to get some more traction, and I think that promoting games that aren't the same as Bellagio is the way for them to go.

Ask about LO8, as I doubt they'll spread PLO8... Most dealers aren't experienced enough to run a good LO8 game, trying to have them count the pot every friggin street is gonna net you about 2 hands/hr...

Tell em if they spread a 10/20 LO8 game, they'll have at least one seat filled from about Jan 1 on...

Isn't there a pretty consistent 10/20 O8 game at the Wynn?
