there, but for the past few years, the poker room at Bellagio has been

The property is located up the strip a ways, I believe at the corner of
Las Vegas Blvd, and Spring Mountain.

game, Daniel Negreanu to be a 'host' at the Wynn's poker room, and from

the WPT Mirage Poker Showdown here in a few weeks.
