The $10/$20 limit and above has fewer tables and stronger players. The $1/$3 and $1/$2 limits are filled with tourists and the game is usually very weak. Eugene Atarov shared a hand from a poker club in Treasure Island, illustrating the weak play at these limits.

Poker clubs in Las Vegas offer loyalty programs with bonuses and discounts on food. The rake in Las Vegas is generally low, often charged on an hourly basis. No-limit hold'em is the most common game, followed by pot-limit Omaha and other limit games. Las Vegas offers a wide variety of multi-table tournaments with buy-ins ranging from $70 to over $1,500.
