Best 5/10 games in Vegas?

pokeriseasy · #1 07-20-2007, 12:43 AM

I'm heading out to Vegas on Saturday for the Hopkins/Wright fight and will be staying out there for a week. I'll be playing 5/10 when I'm out there and was interested in knowing where the best 5/10 games are.

Thanks in Advance.

MGM when it ever gets going
They all vary, but I say
Bellagio
Caesars
Venetian

Never played @ Wynn, sure some recommend

What's wrong with the Wynn? Tough games or bad room?

Are you talking NL or limit?

There is no 5/10 limit in Vegas. For NL, your only chances are the big rooms, as mentioned above.

If limit, 6/12 is hard to find, while 4/8 goes at many places in the evenings, and Bellagio/Wynn all the time.

Leave Caesars off the list.

Basically, the best 5/10 NL game will be the one or two tables in the city running at the same time with a seat open. Above 2/5 the choices are extremely limited.

Bellagio, Wynn then maybe Venetian on weekends/evenings. That's it.

AEK, disregard my post, misread what you said. And I'm talking about 5/10 NL.

Can you call in ahead of time at the Bellagio and put your name on the list? In general how many games do they have going on the weekend and how long is the wait?

I´ve never been to Vegas (or to the U.S. yet), but i find it hard to understand why there is no 5/10 ?! I always thought these casinos would do everything as long as i keep playing ?

I think the better question to ask other than playing 5/10 NL is how deep you want to buyin for. If you are just moving up to 5/10 and want the $1k cap, Bellagio is the best choice. If you want to get a little deeper and buy in for more, I would go to Wynn/Venetion/Caesars. I always prefer to play 5/10nl in rooms where 5/10 isnt the biggest game running but thats just my personal pref.
