I remember in that Suicide King book when Beal first came to Vegas. He/They wanted a head up table but the rules prohibited it.

A gamblers reputation is very important at these stakes, its not worth risking it for one night of action.

[/ QUOTE ] Also if the players in the game at there at the 'invitation' of Gabe, it is fair to assume they will sit out if Gabe asks them to, should you force your way into a game. Furthermore, the Venetian are not obliged to provide service to anybody they dont want to, so they can ask you to leave at any time and for any (legal-non discriminatory) reason. There was a thread not so long ago when Lassandro (sp?) tried to agte carsh a game at Caesars, as I remember, he didnt get to play and just caused a huge rucus.

Re: Vegas high stakes?
The game in Bobby's room will run 4-5 days a week, unless most of the players are out of town for a tournament. It's the most consistant nose bleed limit game on the west coast.
BTW, Negreaneau doesn't play the big game hardly ever since that massive hit for 7 figures. This crap on the radio interview the other day at the WCOOP ME about it "Rarely running is why I dont play it" is total BS.

Re: Vegas high stakes?
The Bellagio 10/20 was simply *amazing* during the WSOP but I expect its no where near as good now. I still think Vegas 10/20 is much harder than Commerce 10/20 overall. Its too bad, because Vegas has such a good 1/2 - 5/10 scene.
