Los Angeles
Commerce (I saw 100/200 running this week) *Get the bravo poker live app for your phone
Bicycle (20/40 mix rare from what I heard)
Hollywood park has a regular 20/40 EO
Someone once told me there was a 100/200 at crystal park but I seriously doubt it.
San Diego
Palomar has a semi regular game 300/600 when I was there sometimes with a mandatory straddle.
Las Vegas
Aria they have 300/600 and bigger. A game of around 15/30 runs often *Add them on twitter @Ariapokerlive
Bellagio same as aria. but their small game seems to run bigger 40/80 50/100 *Twitter @BelllagioPoker
Wynn can run big mix games sometimes a small 4/8 mix runs at night *Add them on their own Wynn Poker App
Rio Of course runs big mix during series. *Add on twitter but it is called @wsopliveaction Might show up on the Bravo Poker Live App this year not sure though.
Venetian Poker I have seen run mix from 4/8 to 15/30 *On BravoLivePoker and Twitter @VenetianPoker
Tropicana runs a small mix game on certain days of the week like 2-8 spread limit *Add twitter @tropLVpoker
Treasure Island can run a small mix game like 3/6 or 4/8 *Twitter Add @TipokerLV
Imperial Palace can run a small mix game like 3/6 or 4/8
This is a nice summary.
As a Vegas reg, I have some clarifications to offer. First, you're much more likely to find a mix game on a weekend night as the bulk of players are local regs or dealers looking to blow off some steam. As such, games are generally decent though some of the regs are solid and the mid-limit games tend to be considerably tougher than the low-limit ones on avg.
Bellagio and/or Aria are good for high limit and both have a game running nearly every day (Bel is 40/80-75/150 typically and Aria is 300/600 or 400/800)
As far as low limit games, the only one that runs consistently is a 4/8 dealer's choice at tropicana on Saturday nights (mix usually includes HORSE+td+badugi+ba1/ba2+crazy pineapple). It's a fun group of people that don't take things too seriously.
The next most consistent is the Imperial Palace (3/6 not 4/8) which has a 10 game mix that starts Sundays at 7pm ... probably runs 2-3 times a month with mix of locals and tourists.
Aria: 12/24 used to run nearly every day for much of last year but the regs got busy with other things so now games go off randomly with a different group of players (typically Brian Micon and friends)
Wynn: game doesn't happen that often and when it does it can be hard to get into as the game gets started by Wynn dealers and their friends on Friday or Saturday nights when they get off at 2am
TI: I think this game only ran during the WSOP but I could be wrong.
Rio/WSOP: nearly always a game at 50/100 and above. 10/20 or 20/40 gets going a few times a week in July.
Venetian: 8/16 mix or HORSE often gets going during Deepstack events (especially on non-holdem tourney days) and occasionally on non-DSE Friday or Saturday nights.
Orleans: Similar to Wynn. Local regs/dealers start games at random times. 4/8-8/16 depending on crowd. 8/16 FLO8 regs will often play when it goes and they tend to be pretty weak at the draw games.
