Extremely well done room. Nice design, comfortable waiting area, plasma tv's along the walls, beautiful tables, comfortable/adjustable chairs, room between tables, computerized wait list, and ability to slide your comp card at the desk. The tables have cup holders and a betting line. They do NOT have the annoying wood rim like MGM (which I know some people prefer). They will serve you food while you play which is a big plus in my mind. If you are going to move up from $2/$4 limit to $3/$6 then there is no reason to play anywhere else. Their move to offer $3/$6 (lowest used to be $4/$8)seems to have helped their business pick up significantly. I think they also now have $1/$2 no limit. So if that's your game, this would be your place as well. I know many folks really like MGM but I found the Venetian to be a cut above, however the players are a little older and probably have a higher income.
Certainly not easy or extremely easy but beatable with tight, aggressive play (even though I didn't not come out ahead). You'll get a few locals due to the free roll they are offering for significant play. Regardless, everyone was pleasant to play with.
I thought the dealers were better than what I'd read on this site. Of course they now have more experience and perhaps they weeded out some of the poor dealers. I didn't have any problems and they were pleasant/friendly.
Very, very easy on the eyes if that is important to you, coupled with rather skimpy outfits. I thought they came around fairly regularly but apparently the bar they use to complete orders isn't very close. Over all, nice looking and good service. I'd give them a 5 if they were faster.
Always asked for my comp card on entry and exit. Got me seated as quickly as possible and got my chips for me very quickly. Seemed a little confused during one session when I sat down at a brand new table and it was slow to get opened for some reason. I think the dealer was frustrated as well.
Bad beat jackpot which I THINK is casino financed. They always asked for my comp card on entry and exit. I'm not sure but the comps might be only $1/hour if you play $3/$6 but more at higher levels? Apparently a big free roll tournament coming up for serious dollars for those (primarily locals I assume) that have logged substantial hours of play.
