Chips: 230 | | | Re: Encore Las Vegas (Wynn) I think im mostly gonna stick to Caesars tournaments, then try out some limit and maybe 2/5NL if I get upset with the limit....
I took about 800 in bad beats with NL this week... so its 6 of one 1/2 dozen of the other other... What can you do, you cant out play bad players when they
are all in and 25-1 longshot on the flop.... DAMN YOU TWO OUTERS!!!!!

LOL | I may play some no limit this week, but probably not. I like when i tell people i still play limit, they say, "but you can't protect your hand." Of course, these are the same guys "protecting" king deuce offsuit!
I like both limit and no limit, but in a casino i find limit games a lot faster and more fun, too much "hollywooding" at the 1-2 and 2-5 nl games for me. |

They spread 4/8, 8/16 and a 15/30 in limit / structured games.
Their NL games are 1/3, 2/5, 5/10 and higher as requested. Although the 5/10 plays quite deep. |

They do a SUPERB job! | I just saw him speak at a conference I was at last year, and he didn't mention anything about that. Maybe he has some sort of correction?
Just seems like it would be more widely known if it is true.. |

Now, this begs the question, if you were the type and caliber of person Steve Wynn is, why would you want your flaws/problems/ailments "more widely known"? I would think you would want to keep it on the down-low, so as to not cause any sort of lack of confidence in your public and peers. I sure as heck would. |

Here is how I feel about the protect your hand.
Ive played 5/10 where a 100 dollar bet wont protect your
hand. THey are all in with the middle pair and gut shot anyhow
no matter what your bet. Any draw, any pair, all in for 500
doesnt scare them.... I hate not protecting your hand, but in
the end, Im hoping it will play out ahead. I still like tournament
poker more even though its hard to really make money if you dont
have a good run of cards all the time. Quote:

They do advertise / spread a 10/20 NL game, which doesn't run daily, but it does run on request. As is true with the 10/20 LIMIT Omaha H/L game. |

Chips: 230 | | | Re: Encore Las Vegas (Wynn) I found a couple with 10/20 limit.
Also if enough request, they get up to the 10/20 and higher NL.
2/5 NL will be my max if I even decide to play any. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
