Stud hi in Bellagio?

BarbarianX · #1 03-14-2007, 10:19 PM

Anyone updated about what stud games goin on regular/occasional basis in Bellagio (30/60 and above)? There are a lot of sources (allinvegaspoker, pokerwiki etc), but they give very different info so it's hard to know which one is reliable.

I've tried in the B&M room, but noone seemed to be able to help.

this post should be posted in the stud-room of course, but did you see any LO8 there?

I should have read everything before replying in the other spot.

They had 10/20 and 20/40 O8 at the Wynn while I was there, and interest in 40/80. No mixed games running at Wynn while I was there but supposedly it does go there often. No stud.

Bellagio didn't have any O/8 going aside from the mixed game(s) I mentioned. On the Saturday night I was at Bellagio they were struggling to get 20/40 stud high going. Oh, forgot to mention in other post that they also had 100/200 mixed going at Bellagio, I didn't look at game as it was tucked away upstairs and I didn't have quite enough cash with me to want to play it. But from what I hear it may also have been really good.

Ok I think that's all my info about non-holdem games. I couldn't get PLO going but apparently they had it at Wynn this week [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img].

20/40 stud hi went all the time when i was there a month ago. Nothing higher went but might go if they have some tourney's. If you want to play stud8 they have it in the the mix of games in the 20/40 at the wynn and in the 40-80 mixed game at bellagio.

what ante/bring-in does the 40/80 mix game have? is it 10/10 or 5/10?

I just played in the 40/80 mixed at Bellagio last week. At the time the only stud game was hilo no qualifier, which surprised me. It was 10/10, which made the game kinda crazy I thought. But as long as you never play a hand that's only for high, that's a good thing in general. Also I'd suggest <i>basically</i> never limping in this game, it's too easy for people to limp behind getting really high odds. Of course this suggests that you could limp in late position getting great odds too, but I felt like it was too easy to get sucked in with band hands that way.

Other games in the mix at the time were Badugi, Omaha 8-or-better, and 2-7 triple draw (I guess sometimes they have other mix though?). Game was very good, everyone seemed to suck at at least one of the games, and a couple people at all of them. BTW this includes myself as I'd never played a single hand of Badugi before. I could still tell a lot of the others were no good at it too., and I think I came out ahead in the game. All of games felt pretty high variance though, decent amount of gambling going on.

Good luck!
