I played there this past Thursday and Saturday. Yes, some of the dealers are slow, but they will improve. Some of the dealers and even management are new to poker, but I think it will get better over time. I really love the room and the action was phenominal, especially at the 2/5 NL game. 1/2 NL was definitely more fishy than MCC, due in part to a lot of people wanting to check out the casino and play some poker. I don't think this will last, but right now it is a bit softer. The issue with music is really only late at night on weekends. There is a bar right next door and if you are sitting close to it, it can be a bit distracting. But other poker rooms tend to be next to clubs accross the country, so this is nothing new. The rake, I believe is the same at MCC, and as of now there are no plans for a BBJ, which is fine with me.

It will be interesting to see how things will be like in another six months or a year. This past weekend the place with packed with people coming and going. The list was insanely deep and there was a line just to get on the elevator because of the nightclub. Alot of tourists and people from MCC were checking it out, and from what I heard, several MCC regulars will now make MGM their home, including myself. So we will see....only time will tell.
