I've heard so much about the future, would hate to miss out.

If y'all want to light it on fire, my WSOP package is here

buying pieces keeps me out of bellagio, so consider your incentives and fire away

whats a proper markup if i hypothetically wanted to scoop your 10k limit action, since i know thats the only tournament you will final table this summer. i dont want to take the bad with the good.

If you "know" I'm going to FT then the number is absurd. But the bookkeeping on doing them all separate is not happening. I've done stuff like selling the 10ks on their own but people didn't really appreciate the choice so I stopped.

The site was unavailable when I wrote the comment, and the day before. It works now.

Rio often has 20/40 during the WSOP but I think I heard bad things about the cash situation there for this summer. Might see something at Venetian.

I wasn't in town last year, but two years ago I'm pretty sure there was never a LHE game at the Rio. Venetian did get 10/20 going a few times, as they had a low rake promo going on.

Per Bravo, they had 8-16 at Orleans last night. Maybe that will start being regular.

Let me know if you want to try and start one anywhere else. Bellagio lists suck during WSOP, and with the paid parking that's starting now I would be very happy to play somewhere different.

What did you hear? I was hoping to play some of the Omaha games or whatever else they get going at 20-40.

Cross posting from Oaks B&M thread:

Started a Twitter account for unofficial and irregular updates (i.e. whenever I am playing) for the 30-60 game (and 15-30 if I see it going). Will mainly be updating for late night/early morning/short-handed games, or if a 2nd must-move game starts. Will be very limited updates during the WSOP. @oaks3060

Mods, please delete if not allowed, but I am not an employee of or compensated by the club in anyway for this.

OK, maybe my 99% estimate was too high.

I've seen interest lists for 8/16 LHE at Orleans lots of times in the past, but the game never actually went when I was there or checking online. Haven't even seen an interest list recently, but I don't go there that often.

I've been seeing an interest list on bravo at the orleans for 8/16 lhe but haven't seen it go. Ill be going there for 8/16 O8 (and the 12/24 o.e. if its going) so will try to get a 8/16+ lhe going. Maybe theres a chance of LHE at the rio on monday the night before the $1500 lhe event

It's going again today apparently

I was at Orleans maybe a year ago and played in a random 10-20 LHE game that started up. The game was full with a list the whole night. Maybe we can get them to spread a 15-30 or 20-40 during the series?

I think there is a pretty big demand for more LHE games during the WSOP. Bellagio only gets a table or 2 of each limit because every table in the room is full and the lists can get pretty long at times.

Or just get 5 people who want to play whatever and start a game at aria, which is what we did last summer.

They are planning to add more temporary tables at Bellagio during WSOP this year, in the area between poker room, bar, and sportsbook. I've heard that there may be as many. As 8 tables added, though the space doesn't look large enough for that to me.

Aria and Venetian expand their rooms every summer btw

What? There is hardly room for a table in that space.

They used to remove slots for tournament tables for 5 Diamond and stuff back in the day when they actually knew how to run a tournament series after they stopped using the Fontana Room.
