  • 10:00 am Venetian is known for having the best Poker room and is a walk from the hotel. They give free lessons in the morning (when the room is more or less empty). I plan on checking on this out and perhaps playing a few real hands -- I've never played poker in a casino before and don't plan to bet large.
