That's the first I've heard of this.

The Venetian is definitely a high-rollers casino like the Bellagio. So, it's not surprising that they would make a serious effort to make the Venetian the home of the Big Game.

I'm with Brian. Last I checked three weeks ago the fishbowl was canceled, the big game deal to move it part time to the Venetian fell through.

Personally I think they are too late in the game. The Wynn's superiority has taken over, and the poker room manager comes from Foxwoods - which is a horribly run room. The locals probably won't take to it, but at the same time it looks like yet another problem for the Mirage.

It seems like this would be good news for the rooms across town.

Maybe things have changed, in the past it was more who would put up with the big game rather than competing to have it.
