For Limit, Ameristar. In addition to hold'em, they have Omaha hi/lo with good regularity.
For no limit, Harrah's. Their biggest game is a hold'em / PLO mixed game with 5/10 blinds which plays huge. I forgot which day that one runs, though.
Avoid the President.

Lumiere Place in downtown St. Louis opens Dec. 19. It will have a poker room. If you do get in there, please post a review.

You know, I'm really starting to believe Harrah's is better for LHE. The action is way better IMO and there's a 20/40 that goes occasionally. Ameristar does have the market cornered though on Omaha/8.

The omaha/8 game at ameristar was a lot of fun. I haven't played it in nearly a year, but when I did it was 5/10 limit with a kill. The kill went into effect whenever the pot was scooped. Probably one-third of the hands were kill hands. Often times the pots would be capped on the turn and river multi-way which led to some $300-$400 pots. I had a couple of good sessions (Biggest pot I ever won was when I had a str8 flush and the wheel, vs. AK high flush and the wheel, vs a full house, no lo). Anyway, as I promptly proceeded to lose everything I won over a few more sessions, I came to the realization that I was lucky, not good, and quit playing. But if you are good at O/8, I would think that game is very beatable.
