The biggest casino hotels in Las Vegas

"Sin City's" casinos for all budgets let you gamble Las Vegas-style!

WYNN BIG!
Steve Wynn is something of an icon in Las Vegas having created a brace of the biggest casino hotels in the world more or less single handed. His latest venture, the truly massive 2,700 room WYNN resort, is an interesting port of call for the thousands of poker fans descending on Sin City at this time of year to watch the final weeks of the World Series. Not everyone can be lucky enough to join the 8,800 fortunate buy-ins for WSOP itself but that’s no reason not to enjoy some exciting cash games while you’re in town and attempt to pay for the flights and hospitality bills. I mention the Wynn because as a relatively new addition to the neon skyline it has been able to design its poker rooms with some real consideration to players’ needs. For example the cardroom’s perfect posture seats would have Chandler and Joey from “Friends” bouncing their butts with joy at the pure scientific comfort sculptured into them. The main cardroom itself is extremely elegant by Vegas standards and if you happen to be a guest you have the facility to play online in your room while staying in touch with your position on the waiting list downstairs, courtesy of an exclusive in-house TV network beamed into your suite. Every poker player hates waiting for a live game and this facility gives you the chance to tune up ready for the action when it comes.

SILK & LEATHER & SOUP
In the natural spirit of competition which pervades the Strip, the Venetian Casino offers poker players full dress butlers who will actually bring you burgers or soup to the table. A risky business given that the place is decorated throughout in silk and glove leather. But Vegas is of course all about risk.

BARGAIN BASEMENT BETTING
If you’re on a budget, fear not, the Mandalay Bay offers bargain basement tournaments and $2-$4 no limit Hold’em games with $200 buy-ins available daily. It’s the perfect place for novice players to experience live games for the first time and everything is about getting bang for your buck.

CARD COUNTERS & CHEATS
It’s hard to know if the old tales from the 70’s of card counters and cheats being heard screaming late at night in a special side room at Binions are true. What is true is that both those art forms have decreased considerably in Vegas these days. Certainly such methods would have been more of a lasting deterent than A.S.B.O.S.The upshot is in ninety per cent of the poker rooms you’ll get a fair game by “live” standards, if not by the very high standards you’ve come to expect from the software at your online poker sites.
