Re: How is the 100-200 game in Bellagio?
The often overlooked element that you have to keep in mind when playing pretty high live limit holdem (Commerce/Bellag.) is the general chaotic atmosphere of these poker rooms. If you have not played alot of live big-room poker, it is really tough to maintain perfect concentration with the commotion going on around you ( noise, spilled drinks, bad dealers, abusive players, controversial floor decisions, blind-posting issues, fat-asses hitting the back of your chair, hot and/or loud and/or obnoxious women, etc.). I still laugh when I think of PokerBob's description of playing in the Commerce for the first time.
I would never recommend sitting 1-2 at the Bellag unless you had played a good amount (i.e., at least one year) playing 20-40/30-60 live. It is very different from the online experience.
That being said, I have never found the Bellag. 1-2 that tough, but I really only play it during WSOP time and try to avoid the 'main' game.
