Taking a Shot

in General Poker Chat
So my buddies and I leave for Vegas Monday AM to play the horses and lots of poker. I usually play $2-4, 3-6, 4-8 live but I would like to step up for one session just to say I have done it. If I am a winning player online at low (0.50-1 and 1-2 on Stars) limits, what should I shoot for limit-wise and what should I sit down at the table with?

Any feedback would be appreciated.

    If you're talking fixed limit, you can probably find an 8-16 game at either Bellagio or Wynn (possibly at Venetian as well but don't quote me on that), and you can probably find 4-8 games at both places as well (lowest limits in those rooms, but generally will be the highest limits you'll find anywhere else on the strip). If you're talking NL, you'll find $1-2 100 max all over the strip. I'm pretty sure Wynn has an uncapped $1-2 NL game (or maybe it's $500) which might be an alternative to actually playing a game with higher blinds.

    I'm at the Wynn right now and 8-16 has been running for 3 days

    Mirage - great room. Lowest limit they spread is 3-6.

    Take a 'shot' on your last day with all your 'winnings'. It would suck to lose your bankroll on the first day. Freerolling is much better.

    Caddy, Whats your impression of the game?

    Grimm, by all means take your shot, but realise that 8-16 in vegas is a tougher game than 10-20 at brantford.. If you get the short end of variance, play 4-8 at MGM. All the drunk teenyboppers will line your wallet.

    I'd agree with that statement (although it's been forever since I've been back to Brantford). Mid limits are going to get a lot of regular locals in Vegas (which isn't to say the game isn't beatable). The 15-30 game was pretty wild at bellagio when I was there, the Wynn game wasn't quite as donktastic.
