I once worked for someone that liked to explain poker as liver and onions (remember this was before the poker boom, so there were not flashy poker rooms). He talked about when a family wanted to go out to eat after church on Sunday, if the aunt wanted to order liver and onions they would pick a place that had liver and onions even if most of them didn't want it. He viewed poker in a similar manner. Most people that come to Las Vegas are not coming to play poker, but if someone in the group wants to play poker, they will pick a casino with a poker room.
