They have no information about a poker room on their website. I assume this is one of many that disappeared during the 'pandemic'.

If we are to believe PokerAtlas, there are also these two additional casinos in the Las Vegas area that offer poker:

Poker Palace Casino (7 tables)
Santa Fe Station (14 tables)

Not sure if this is the right thread, but how frequently does the 1-2-5 Big O at Caesars get up?
On Bravo it says every Monday 6PM, but last few Mondays it has come up as 5 Card Omaha/double board bomb pot @ 5-5 stakes

Coming to town with a few friends from overseas, and Big O is our game so we are super keen to play that somewhere. In our home games we play it no limit

Couple of questions about comp $

1. Which poker rooms allow you to use comps towards tournament entries? I believe Venetian is one.

2. Most places comps expire at the end of the year. Are there any out there with no expiration date?

by comps, do you mean rewards points for playing? If yes, I have used Station Casino & Boyd Gaming rewards points from poker recently that I know were more than a year old.

This is a Vegas-thread, so let's not clutter it with incorrect information. If you look at my posting history you will clearly see that I was in Las Vegas in January 2022; at a time where you had to be vaccinated to enter the US.

Enough about that topic though - back to Vegas and the f**king Mirage instead.

But pandemic is an objective term. What about it would cause you to imply some sort of question about that?

Is the Corona Virus 'The COMMON COLD' a pandemic... not by definition, only because it's not NEW'.

Is Covid-19 a Pandemic... yes, BUT ONLY BECAUSE IT WAS NEW.

The Influenza kills more people by ORDER OF MAGNITUDE but no one is shutting down economies, printing 40% of all currency ever created in history or even mentioning it in CORPORATE MEDIA at scale.

now GTFO and move on with your life... and your COMORBIDITIES.

Yes please. We have an entire dedicated thread if you guys really insist on rehashing this. You may have to dig a little, but it's here somewhere.

that is a pretty dumb question.
my suggestion is maybe bring cash with you? make a withdrawal before you go?

even better, go to your bank and tell them you are traveling and might need to make a withdrawal?

15k cash fits easily in one pocket. Nobody will know you have it. Just carry it, it's far superior to any other option.

If you come from abroad there is a $10k limit for how much you can bring in and out, fwiw.

This is not true at all. There is no maximum amount you can bring in, but if it's over $10K you just have to fill out a simple form. But that's not the same thing as a $10K cap or anything like that.

I am eagerly awaiting this TR where the pleasure is concerned about TSA and $5k, but not at walking from the polo towers to where ever with that amount on him.
