“Stardust NL” by Aces, 29 Mar 2006

Atmosphere:    Wait:    Variety:    Fish:

Stayed at the Stardust over the 2nd w/e of the NCAA tournament and played the 1/2NL exclusively. Played at various times Wed through Sat. Tables are now non-smoking, though it's still pretty smokey from the casino and railbirds. Most dealer were friendly enough, a couple weren't. Management seemed competent. Overall dealer quality was average to below average. I saw quite a few misdeals, misreads or other mistakes. Drinks were always quick. $5 food comp if you ask. Get the Steak & Egg special(11pm to 6am) for free($4.95). Room rates of $30($45 for w/e) are very attractive. Tower rooms were pretty decent. Players were mostly partying and looking to gamble. Wait was never long and you could here it called throughout the casino. Only offered 1/2NL(most of the time) and 3/6(always). Players were horrendous. TAG play wins big-time here, just be patient. Stardust is a bit off the beaten track. If you're walking it's not the best location, only the Wynn and maybe the Sahara are within a reasonable walk for close poker rooms.

Ok I'll just give it strat. Stardust is in my estimating one of the worst places in Vegas you could play poker, for the following reasons; -It's the only room that still allows smoking at the tables, as if didn't get enough 2nd hand walking to the room across the casino floor. (If u smoke might be a positive) -It's not in the best location, it's a far walk at the north end of strip, past the Wynn. Also a walk I wouldn't suggest taking at 2-3am after cashing out a nice win. Furthermore the Stardust is known for it's Sports Book, it's where the wise guys go to bet. Since I'm a capper I spent alot of time there my last trip. Startdust also has some good adult oriented shows (I saw Geroge Carlin). Simply put if your looking just to play cards there are plenty of other rooms. Mariage has stakes for all levels and is very nice. Imperial Palace and Harras's are also very nice poker rooms with some good perks. Inaddition Ceasers and Venitian are making plans to open poker rooms. (I'm drooling they should be great.)

The atmosphere at the Stardust is nice but it is not as fancy as some of the newer casinos on the strip. The waiting list system is very efficient. We were able to call in to get our names in place and the pages can be heard throughout the casino. There isn’t any variety in the games, all the tables are hold’em and all the stakes are the same. Like most brick and mortar casinos, it has bad players who like to gamble.
