Las Vegas Poker Trip July 2023

About $550 in the $8/$16 Limit Hold’em poker game at The Orleans after 5 hours

Since the question “How did you do in poker on your Vegas trip?” is going to come up, let me answer that here.

Bottom-line: I played for 19:33 hours over 3 days and overall I lost but not very much.

I played $4/$8 Limit Hold’em and had a losing rate of -$27.85 per hour.

 

 

 

 

Then I played the next higher stakes $8/$16 Limit Hold’em and had an earning rate of $44.74 per hour!

$320 buy-in to the $8/$16 Limit Hold’em poker game at The Orleans
$554 cash-out in the $8/$16 Limit Hold’em poker game at The Orleans after 5 hours

 

 

 

 

 

 

So how is it that I was losing at the lower stakes but winning at the higher stakes? See my next post What Poker Stakes Should You Play? for the reason.
