Caesar's LV Poker Room Review

BusterFlush · #1 10-18-2007, 05:09 PM

I was in Vegas for business and I usually go to LV 5 to 6 times per year. On Friday I played 2/5 at the Belagio. I experienced the usual arroagance of the floor staff and witnessed whining dealers. Chip runners took forever as new players and bustouts just bought chips from the big stacks to keep the game going. The action was good so there was at least one reason to play there.
Saturday and Sunday I played at Caesar's Palace.
WHat a difference in attitude. They actually act like they are happy to have you there to play! You are seated and immediately brought chips. Customer service seems to be job 1.
I witnessed two incidents of floor staff complimenting the dealer for a good job or decision on the floor. All the dealers were competent and seemed pleased to be there.
I suppose highrollers will not find big games there but for 1/3 to 5/10, I highly recommend Caesar's.

Thanks for this review. I will be staying there all week next week and planned on giving their poker room a spin.

Thanks !!
I'm going to vegas in 3 weeks and thought about skipping the Caesar's room. Now I'll give it a shot.

It's the same. The players dont really change from room to room at low limits or low nl games such as 1/2 and 2/5.

This is not the first time I've heard this, but it's interesting because I've never noticed it. I'm a low roller (relatively speaking, in the Bellagio - $15/30 is the highest I've played.)

When I played in Caesar's, it was almost empty. Just didn't have that card room feel. The tournaments are pretty good though.

I've played at Bellagio about 5 times in the past 2 months and didn't know they had chip runners. I usually play 5-10nl
