As you may know, the Bellagio Poker room is currently underoging renovations. They have moved the tables to the adjacent slot section. Apparently the room is going to be expanded to include the slot area as well. But it won't be finished by the time we get there at the end of March. I don't know how many live tables they'll have while the renovations are ongoing, but I imagine it'll be less (which could mean very long wait times during that busy Final Four weekend).
However, there is good news. The MGM is opening a new poker room on March 28 (several days before we arrive), and it looks like it'll be very nice. 25 tables, each with buttons to call the cocktail waitress and machines to swipe the players cards. The games spread will be 2/4 on up.
