Bellagio Las Vegas

Bellagio Las Vegas Review

This roomy casino is luxurious and always packed. Under its hushed orange canopies you can sometimes spot high rollers betting stacks of black chips ($100 apiece) per hand. In Club Privé, the high-roller's area, wagers climb even higher. There are games for more typical budgets, too. Low-denomination slots are tucked in the back corners for low-rollers and excellent blackjack games are offered for mid- to high-level players (table minimums usually start at $15). If you can find them, the $10-minimum craps tables also can get lively. The casino's epicenter remains its now-famous poker room, which rose to national notoriety as a key element of the TV poker fad. Players such as Daniel Negreanu and Phil Ivey are regulars here, though they frequently hit Bobby's Poker Room, a private room behind a closed door. Elsewhere in the casino, the race and sports book is small but cozy; each leather seat is equipped with its own TV monitor.
