Default Looking for Uncapped NLHE, PLO or Mixed games (w/badugi) in Vegas

Ill be in Vegas next week. Looking for PLO (up to $25/$50) or Mixed games w/Badugi or just straight Badugi up to $10/$20 (for drunk fun).

During the Series outside of the Rio I was able to find some PLO at the Wynn and once at the Venetian. I have heard that theres been some PLO at the Wynn recently. When is a good day to check if theres a game there? Is there anywhere else to check?

I played small mixed games at the Venetian and Caesars but then I went back one day and Ceasars said they werent spreading the mixed game anymore. I also heard there was a $3/$6 Badugi game at IP. Id prefer to play straight Badugi just for fun for even small stakes but ill play a mixed game just to be able to play Badugi during part of it.

Finally i know theres uncapped NLHE games at Bellagio, Wynn and MGM, what about other places? I heard the Golden Nugget has a small uncapped game any other place with uncapped buyins?

No PLO in Las Vegas - No High Limit in Las Vegas except at the Bellagio - no where else in Las Vegas - sad but true!

Kathy - You shouldn't be so quick with your opinions.

You can get PLO spread at Wynn, but it doesn't run often. I recommend showing up on a weekend early evening to start the list, and ask everyone you see to start the game with you. I've seen it start as short as 4 handed, but you have to do little legwork to get it moving. Last time time I saw it spread earlier this month I think it was 5/5 or 5/10, I forgot.

big plo games run at bellagio during tourneys, unlikely any will be going next week but who knows. i heard that a 2-5plo game goes at venetian on thursdays but i haven't had time to go check it out.

for mixed games, bellagio often has 40-80 b.o.t., unlikely they spread it as low as 10-20.

i think caesars 2-5nl is uncapped.

Thanks TT. I played $5/$10 PLO during the series there. I think Ill try to show up on Friday and get it started. Is around 6Pm a good time? One night when it got 3 handed they even let us play Pot Limit Badugi for a while. But then when we were there the next day the floor said they didnt allow Badugi at all.

I know you play Badugi a lot. Is there any small limit Badugi or mixed games around town? Does the Venetian still spread the $6/$12 mixed game?

Rio has been getting 4/8 mix games going many weekends. Generally it's BOT with some 4th game thrown in (EBOT being a favorite). It tends to take the Rio dealers ganging together to get it started, but anybody is welcome to play.

Caesars managed to hold a 4/8 HORSE game together for 24 hours this week. I was there to start it Thursday night and it was still running Friday afternoon when I returned (with one of the original players still there). But I had absolutely no luck whatsoever convincing Caesars folks to adjust the HORSE to, say, remove H and S and add B or T. Just a flat "no". And when I later pressed for explanation, I was told "you just don't understand" (which was certainly true).

According to the floor at Wynn, casinos need to be 'licensed' or some such in every game they spread. Wynn doesn't have Badugi in their license list or rule book, so they are not legally allowed to spread it. We whine about it from time to time when getting the little 4/8 mixed game together, but as of yet they have not added it.

What days does this go? What time does it start usually? Has the $6/$12 mixed game been going also?

Cool Ill add the Rio onto the list of rooms Ill check. Ive never actually played there except during the series.

Ill forget about Caesars I think. Whats the point of playing a mixed game if you have to play HORSE? Id prefer a game where you played every game except HORSE.
