Las Vegas Poker Tips

Can you find the perfect poker game for yourself among the full list of casino games that Las Vegas has to offer? Sin City is home to games that range from 2/4 Fixed Limit Hold’em all the way up to 100/200 games. Players will also find No Limit Texas Hold’em, Pot Limit Omaha, Omaha 8 or Better, Seven Card Stud, Seven Card Stud 8 or Better and mixed games.  The key is to find the game you want as quickly as possible with the most action.

  1. Use Bravo Poker Live

    Download Bravo Poker Live.  This app displays all of the live cash games running. It also displays promotions, waitlist, and tournament schedules.  Bravo Poker Live includes a location setting to find the games closest to you.

  2. Go to Local Poker Rooms

    Don’t dismiss locals poker rooms.  There are many wealthy locals that play loose at places like The Orleans, Green Valley Ranch, Red Rock, and Santa Fe Station.  These games offer far more action than one might think.

  3. Avoid $5 Rake Poker Rooms

    These include Flamingo, Wynn, Venetian Rio and Bally’s.  Players looking for a true bargain on rake may want to check out The Orleans and Suncoast where the rake is only $3.

  4. About Promotional Drops

    Visit poker rooms that do not take promotional drops. This will lower your variance. Caesars Palace, Aria, Wynn, and Bellagio do not take promotional drops.  Caesars Palace is the only one of these rooms that caps the rake at $4.
