New Years Poker at Bellagio

By Terry I. Aino, Dec 31, 2008 Bellagio

Poker players looking for a fun way to kick off the New Year should check out the Bellagio Hotel and Casino, where two $540 tournaments are to be held. One event will be held today, December 31st and the other tomorrow, January 1st. The normal daily tournament structure will hold sway, keeping the blinds at 40 minutes, but as a New Year bonus players will get more than double their starting stacks. Bellagio daily tournaments typically start with 6,000 in chips, but these two special events will feature 15,000.
