This happened during my annual Las Vegas trip at WSOP time. Mid Afternoon weekday in early July.

Walked up to the front brush desk and asked to be put on all low and mid level Limit Holdem or Mixed games. Brush said they didn't have ANY!. They only put 10 tables in play for cash games and they were all NL. A tournament was about to start using another 10+ tables and the other 1/3 of the room was not being used. He said there might be some limit games after the tournament was over.

Well --- Over the years I've heard a lot of things from casino poker room staff, but I'd never heard THAT before. I asked if it would be the same tomorrow and he said yes it would be.

Thus ended my visit to the Venetian.

Mirage had multiple games of Limit Holdem going at the same time-- 3-6, 10-20, 20-40, and a 6-12 list.
Wynn had multiple games of limit Holdem going at the same time-- 4-8, 8-16, 15-30, and a very nice 8-16 Mixed Game.

Somebody tell me again how the Venetian is so well run and is so innovative and is trying to get our business.
