The Venetian used to have a poker room long ago! A caveat: I haven't been to Las Vegas for a few years, but I try to keep up on Poker Pages and Card Player, plus the postings here. Based on that, there are a number of rooms on the strip, off strip and downtown: Bellagio, Mirage, Mandalay Bay, Circus Circus, Excalibur, Palms, Orleans, Rio (?), Flamingo, Luxor, Riviera, Stardust, Horseshoe, Golden Nugget and a few others I can't recall right now. The ratings would depend on what you are looking for. I like the Bellagio room the best (I think it was displaced due to the big tournament now taking place), followed by Mirage, then the Horseshoe, for its history. The Excalibur is very small, but I had a good time. For tournaments, Mandalay Bay, Luxor and Orleans for the lowest limit players. I am sure the locals can add a lot to my list.
