What\'s the best place to place 4/8 in Vegas?? Is 8/16 worth playing??
 

What is the best place to play 4/8 in Vegas? I know the easy answer is "ever 4/8 game has horrible players", but I'm thinking a few places must stick out. Even if ever 4/8 game is juicy, then whats the best casino to play it at.. AKA cheap rake/good drink service/fast dealers etc..

2nd questions, I understand only a few places offer 8/16 games (Mirage, Bellagio, Wynn, Venetian).. I've heard these games are pretty tough to beat. They mostly have local nits and semi-pro's, no fish/tourists. Anyone disagree and know a 8/16 that can be beat in the long term? I'm from the east coast and play 5-10, 10-20 games and normally crush them, but I heard in Vegas the jump from 4/8 to 8/16 is huge.

Thanks in advance

8/16 at the wynn on weekends is usually pretty lagtastic. its right by the rail facing the crowd so everyone tends to show off and try to outplay eachother for huge pots while the tourists gawk, can be very profitable if you run decent as the pots are invariably 4+ way and often capped on every street.

What do you think I should buy in with? 500?

For 4/8 300 is enough of a buyin.

i think it uses 2$ chips.. so drop 400$ on two racks is my advice. 300$ is certainly adequate however.

No I meant how much should I buy in for the Wynn 8/16 game. I was thinking 500 is good. Also, no one has told me a good place to play 4/8 yet!

you sort of answered the question yourself when you said everywhere has horrible $4-8 players, which is true. Wherever 4-8 is the lowest game, you'll face the worst players, so places like Wynn, Bellagio, and Venetian are good. Venetian and Wynn have great waitresses and atmospheres too. Besides those places, I'd recommend MGM on a weekend night - full of young partiers who aren't good at limit.

Honest answer, ANYWHERE you sit down! The players today will not be the players next week, or the time you get here. People aren't playing 4/8 because they are TAG pro multi millionaire players. They are playing 4/8 to gamble and have a good time. Find a 4/8 game, sit, profit, enjoy, get drunk, get hit on by hookers after, take said hooker to your room, enjoy again, get more drunk, go home when trip over, write trip report for 2+2.

8/16 is not a big step up from 4/8 in my experience. There's a much bigger gap from 8/16 to 15/30. I've played the Wynn 8/16 on occasion and it's not tough. Like most Vegas limit games it has a lot of regulars, but regulars aren't necessarily any good.

Huh? What does it matter what you buy in for? Just get more chips or put out cash if you get low.
