The Bellagio is a very popular casino in Las Vegas (even more so after the hit remake of Ocean's Eleven) that sports a water show that has to be seen to be believed. It also sports a number of high profile major poker tournaments every year, and the annual 5 Diamond World Poker Tour Classic is one of the more popular.
Any World Poker Tour event is going to draw crowds of players, each hoping they are going to be next in a long line (over fifty!) of newly minted millionaires created by the WPT. This event runs from April Fools Day to the end of the month (from April 1st, 2008 to April 26th, 2008 to be exact) and sports 15 events, as well as a number of super satellite days where players can compete for seats into the final event on the cheap.
