I am happy there are more Poker rooms opening up. Daryl Simms

* It is great that we have more
places to play in Las Vegas. Poker is fun and I really like the
diversion it gives me from playing the table games. Glenda D.
TX
* I do not take part in the live
Poker games. I have heard stories of locals or pros. teaming up to take
advantage of the tourist. The traditional games seem to be a safer
bet. Don Bartlett Indianapolis, Indiana
* I stick with playing Blackjack
only as I am not confident enough about Poker to play it. My wife plays
slots. D. Turner Brunswick, ME & Biloxi, MS
* I am content with competing with
the casinos rather than other visitors, therefore my answer is no, I
will not play poker in Vegas. Ted & Molly
* I would love to play poker but I
haven't played in years and I don't have a very good "poker face". If a
casino had a table for newbies I would consider it. Martha M.
* I am majorally looking forward
to visiting Vegas this March. I don't plan on playing poker though. I
think that it has an aura of being more of a man's game, and also that
it appears to be a more intense game. Sandra Petzel

* No, I have no intention of
playing live poker in Las Vegas. To me the only bluff worth taking in
Vegas is a fake ID to get a drink! Of course I'm way past the age where
I even get proofed. I feel there's too much of a chance of local
sharks or teams of players moving in on games. At least with other games
I know at what percentage rate I will lose my money. So, skilled players
may do well, or evenly matched players may do well. There is just no way
to regulate non casino staff taking advantage of the average player. CJ

* I started out playing live
games in Vegas. Each time as I return I play more tournaments. I still
play video poker and blackjack much like I always have ... more when I
win and a little less when I lose. Gil Loeser
* Yes. I like video poker. Lynn
Krings
* No poker for me. Can't
stand to be by all them smokers plus some of them smell real bad. GJ
Smith
* No plans for live
poker...not daring enough. Nancy McMahon
* There is no way I would
play live Poker. I have never had any luck with cards, I can't win at
Blackjack with two cards! I will stick with slots and roulette.
Lynnette Young Takoma Park, MD
* I certainly enjoy watching the
poker tourneys on TV. I also play them on PC, via internet on the
various servers. After playing at our local WI casino, I am hooked.
While I am normally a Slots player, I am looking forward to playing
Texas Hold em in Vegas. There is no city in the world with as much
excitement as Vegas, and playing poker there would only add to it! Texas
hold em is the latest craze, and there's no better place to play it than
Vegas, Baby! Troy Bleck Tigerton WI
* My next trip to Vegas does
not include plans to play live poker. I am good with computer versions
but am nowhere near good enough to play with real people. I am content
with playing slots and video poker. Vicki
