Thats how I drank when I was 17, 18s over here.It works a charm most places Link to post Share on other sites

This way they won't check your ID when cashing in the chips and just take them. That would suck. Link to post Share on other sites

If any of you younger guys.. or anyone in general can tell me if you get carded/ see people get carded/ if teh casinos are lax about it considering there is probably alot going on i'd appreciate it. kthx.Yeah. I've been carded twice. I look pretty young though. I got to play twice at the MGM and I've got carded once at the MGM and once at the Fiesta casino (lolz). Don't shave for a few days, act confidant and if the person who takes the names is pretty old they won't card you. All the young punks look the same to them. If you find someone who's 25 putting names on the lists theres a greater chance you'll get carded. When I have gotten carded nothing has happened. They just say, "I'm sorry but you can't play." Then you just walk out. Link to post Share on other sites

Nights and weekends you might find something at Mirage or Venetian. Link to post Share on other sites

David_Nicoson 1 Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 I mean, if these people are all flocking in to town for the wsop and such, arent they likely poker fans, and students of the game?There are lots of people who are competent tournament players but are fish at the cash games, because they're not used to playing deep.

Cappy37 0 Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 also, the games in LA during the series are sick cause all the good players come to vegas for the wsop...so the 5/10 there is just unrealthis is an excellent point that got overlooked. Link to post Share on other sites
Liquid_Ghost 0 Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 I always feel that the games at all limits are softer during the series. Even the 1/2 games tend to be softer by virtue of the fact that people who go to the series bring friends and family who are weak and willing to give poker a shot because their relation is playing at the WSOP. I think that Mandalay is a great place to play if you can get a seat in their super small room. Bellagio's 2/5 is also great because it is mostly players who should be playing 1/2 but because it is their smallest game, they are forced into playing higher. MGM is always a favorite of mine to play 1/2 or 2/5 but during the series the 5/10 should be handing out donations as well. Link to post Share on other sites
a__thekevlar__2 0 Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 im getting there on june 6 so expect the games to be softer around then Link to post Share on other sites

Ceasers is great late at night since it is located next to the club and gets a fair share of people wandering in drunk at 3AM. Weekend eveneings from at about 6 on are usually great.

I was just curious if the rio games were especially soft right now.Really retarded question, but what limit/spread do they have at the rio and how long is the wait. I have yet to step foot in there ever and just switching between the MGM and Bellagio games atm. Finally i just wanna state that I broke the 'MGM 1/2nl' curse today as for some reason i just lose to donks everytime i've sat down there. posted a + ftw. Link to post Share on other sites

I played for a few hours last night and it was prob the nittiest live game i ever played. My buddy had the same thing at his table. I was there from like 10-2. I am going to try again during the day today, hopefully there will be better games today. Link to post Share on other sites
Fluffdog87 2 Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 10-25nl games have been great so far at the rio most of the time but the action dies down by 9-10pm. Link to post Share on other sites
