Back in vegas

[kidpoker]

I have been in vegas the past 4 days. Sorry for not having much time to post or answer any questions by pm anyone has had. I have been playing in 1-2 tournaments a day, mostly 150-300 buy in's. Tournments take up a lot of time so havent been online much ,and when i am I am usually helping someone via messenger or doing some other things that need to get done. I will back tomorrow night though so any questions or pM's will be answered then. Cashed in my first 2 tournaments by the way, 3rd in a 150 buy in with 85 players so payed 1375, and 5th in the other with 107 people in it for 1250. Just got knocked out the earliest yet with 98 people and got 51th so have some extra time so thought i would post before i get in another or decide to just hit some clubs and drink a bit.

Do you play many cash games when your in vegas? If so, what limits do you play?

I've only been to Vegas once but i'm heading back just as soon as i can talk the wife into it.

Texas Holdem fixed limit

Fixed limit? that's got about the same appeal after the words texas hold em as "for paedophiles"

back home. I usually do play the cash games also. But this trip i did not. I played tournaments only then since some friends were out there with me, played those during the day then did dinner, clubs, and drinks the rest of the night.

When i play cash games I always play No limit. the only time i will play limit is if i can get a omaha hi.low table. Or if i can find a razz table. I vary the limits i play often. Mostly I go by mood and how i feel. If i am tired, i will play as low as 2/4 or 2/5 NO limit. I go as high as 5/10 no limit. I do play a back room game back home that is 10/20 limit. ONce around the table holdem the next time omaha hi.low. If i play online anymore, i play much lower. Mostly online play for me these days is just bying time to go out to the bar or drinking a few and wasting time while waiting to go out.

How do you find the comping aspect of Vegas only playing tourneys? I once read you can play advantage in casinos by only betting big when the pit boss is making his rounds. If you do it right he thinks you are a big player and you can get a good chunk of your bets back as freebies - drinks, meals etc

i dont worry about comps. Vegas is cheap these days. You can stay almost anywhere any time for a great price for the kind of room you get. Playing tournies only, you will not get comp'd hardly at all. The way you get comp'd is not by just betting big at table games and things like that. If you want free rooms and things like that, you have to be a big player. Betting 1000 a hand and things like that at bj. Most places used to comp much better back in the day, but now they basically take care of the big players, and the little players can get enough points for maybe a free show here and there or free meals, but nothing big.
