The place is beautiful (as is everything else about bellagio), nice adjustable chairs, best "physical" tables in vegas each with auto-shufflers. High limit section seperated by glass doorways, so you can watch the big boys play. I watched Doyle, Ivy, Ted Forest, Reese, Robinhood, Freddy Deebs, Jen Harmon, Gus Hanson, + more all in the same room playing $4000-8000. If you want to get some auto-grafs make sure you plan your trip around a vegas tournament date to insure the pros are in town. I was lucky enough to watch a bit of the WPT bellagio event.
For low limits, could use a bit more room between the tables.
Changed every night, sometimes way to tight for a 4-8 game, sometimes completely crazy-capped to river with 4 players showing down. With 4-8 being the lowest game, you can find complete idiots occasionally. However the crowd is a bit older then other hot spots in vegas (which lowers the action).
You can find a 4-8 game at all hours of the night, which can sometimes be hard to do.
I played about 25 hours, not one dealer mistake. They are very friendly and settle confrontations quickly and appropriately. They follow all rules to the tee. Ask them about dealing to the pros, and you will have an interesting conversation.
Classy place, with claasy attire. Not much to look at, but you can easily get a drink twice an hour.
List management is by hand (which I cannot stand). They seperated the list management between 4 managers. One manager follows 4-8, 8-16 exclusively, however he was routinely missing in action. Plus the speaker system blows, so even my young ears can barely hear the names being called.
However, he quickly switch tables for me.
Here's what @#$% me off: I was in a crazy 4-8 game from 9pm -2am with noone leaving the game. The poker room is 75% empty, however management decided to move our table across the room (too set up the morning tournament).. Luckily the main two maniacs stuck around for the move... then later in the morning around 11pm they moved us AGAIN!, this time however all the maniacs decided to just leave which destroyed a very profitable game.
not sure, did not look into it.
