Anyway, is anyone going out? I have a few friends who are expressing interest. How does this weekend compare to other holiday weekends in terms of game selection? I'll be playing 1-2/2-5 so the games are generally always good but I was wondering if they were any better this weekend.

*hijack*

I hate the Government, they have almost everyone convinced that Columbus day is ANY other day other than October 12th! They ruined my b-day, that's for sure!

I'm going. I'll be in the $10-20 and $20-40 LHE at Mirage and $15-30 at Bellagio and Wynn.

I'm shocked at how many places are already sold out and how much the remaining places cost. Dumps like Trop average $160 for the three nights(garden rooms no less) and IP and Hooters and Ex are all over $200 a night average for the three nights. I booked at Orleans a few months ago when rooms where $130 for the Friday and Saturday and $80 on the Sunday. I'm plenty happy I did because its about $120 more than that for the three nights now.

Yeah that's strange, since it's not a holiday for most people.

Is it a fight weekend?

All the weekends in October seem to be expensive. I noticed this a couple months ago when a friend said he was coming out in mid-October for someone's birthday party and he was asking if I could suggest cheap places since everything he was finding was outrageously priced. He ended up deciding if cheap rooms were gonna be $150, he might as well pay $200 for an MGM Signature room (which he booked directly with the owner, not through MGM).

I am! My son is getting married on the 6th. I'll be there from the 4th to the 8th.

Good questions...I don't know. Never been there on this weekend. All I know is I'll be playing the 1/2 NL at Luxor. Last time I was there, the place was full of fish.

There is a fight this Saturday at Mandalay Bay.

So how were the poker games this past weekend?
Are things starting to pick up or no?

I have a large interest as I am coming out next weekend!
Thanks

Games were pretty good at Wynn, Mirage, Venetian. At the Wynn list ran pretty deep for 1-3 w/ several tables of 2-5 going on. For limit players 15-30 had a table that started around 2pm on saturday and was full of old men.
