Las Vegas Poker Rooms
Poker in Las Vegas
In Vegas, the poker boom continues at a rate so fast, we've been unable to keep up with all the casinos that are opening up new poker rooms. Just as soon as we think we've got them all, a new poker room opens up. Of course, you all know the 2 reasons poker is expanding so rapidly not only in Las Vegas, but all over the world, 1) Texas Hold'em on TV and 2) Online poker rooms, each fueling this tremendous growth in the brick and mortar casino rooms. More casino poker rooms opening soon are at the Stratosphere, which should open theirs in mid-June, 2005, and at Green Valley Ranch, in Henderson, planning a poker room opening in the Summer of 2005. Recently opened poker rooms are at Silverton, Riviera, Wynn Resort, Tropicana, MGM Grand, Santa Fe Station, and Rio. The links you see with casino names in the left and right hand columns of all the pages on vegastexasholdem.net, including this page, are the ones that either have a poker room or should be opening one soon.
