| that seems a bit high even for these sicko's. I know that there has been talk about getting a big NL/PLO game going, but 4k/8k is absurd it would be nothing to drop 2M in that game.

| 4k/8k blinds at the bellagio big game are not at all uncommon. I think recently the game hasn't been going or certainly not so big - maybe some of the usual players depleted their rolls a bit but 4k/8k was pretty standard for that particular game.

| This will be my last post for 3 weeks because I leave saturday for a nice nonpoker vacation to Brazil with my gf. I heard this rumor also but it's not true. Brandon Adams who played in the 1K/2K NLH/PLO game last year at Bellagio (highest uncapped game in history) wrote on 2+2 that this rumour is not true and frankly impossible because there aren't enough cranberries (25K chips) around for a game like this (assuming people have to rebuy). Also most of the people who played in that game won't have the money to play 4K/8K. The only ones rich enough (and willing) to play that game are: - Lyle Berman - Sammy Farha - Patrick Antonius - Phil Ivey and that's basically it. A lot of the players from last year who are the best PLO players in the world (Rafi Amit, Bobby Baldwin, Nenad Medic, etc) are not near rich enough. Besides I believe what Brandon Adams writes since I haven't caught him on a fake story in the past couple of years.

| Bobby Baldwin is Pres/CEO of Bellagio so he got money to play in that game.

| It's true that the Big Game usually has limits of 2k and 4k, but those are limit games, which makes the buyin significantly lower than a NL or PL game with the same blinds.
