Whats going on at the Venetian / Gabe back at Bellagio?
 

2+2'er and man around Vegas just posted this:

'Guess he couldn't resist the 100/200NL that's been going off several times a week over on Table 10 in Bobby's Room and decided to make nice, esp. with all the action coming in for the 5-Diamond."

i find the timing extra interesting because i noticed a new sign yesterday at the venetian tournament podium:

"HIGH STAKES NO LIMIT - 50/100 blinds, Saturdays at 3PM" (not an exact quote).

does this mean Gabe has gone back to the Bellagio for good, has he abandoned his Venetian game? Funny thing is I was going to start a post congratulate the Venetian for a good marketing strategy but this turn of events makes me go ?huh?

This sign is not that new, except it was $25/$50 blind with $100 ante on the button. It was there over a month ago when I visited Venetian (as noted in my trip report), and I inquired about the big game and they said it ran on days other than Saturday with bigger blinds. When I played no-limit there, Gabe Thaler appeared later in the afternoon.
