Body:
The Venetian Poker Room is continuing to offer
poker players some terrific promotions and unique amenities throughout
the month of June.
“We are excited with the poker
room and the reception it has gotten from the poker community,”
stated Kathy Raymond, director of poker operations. “With
the fantastic promotions, amenities, friendliness and overall
atmosphere that we are offering, it is not surprising that
more and more poker players are coming to The Venetian to
experience the “New Face of Poker™”. Since
the room officially opened, we have consistently seen a 30%
increase in business every week. And the word is out - The
Venetian is the newest poker hot spot on the Strip.” |

Venetian Players Club members will earn double comp points for
playing until August and players can qualify for special suite
rates with six hours of play (based on availability).
Opportunities to qualify for the half-million-dollar freeroll
poker tournament will continue throughout June. Players who
accumulate 50 hours of rated play per month through the end of
July, or 200 hours of rated play by July 31, will qualify for
a free entry to the August 11, 12 and 13 freeroll tournament.
Cash prizes will be awarded to the top 200 finishers.
A $25,000 “Bad Beat Jackpot” will also continue throughout
the month of June.
Guests who are present when adding their name to a list but must
wait for an available seat, will be given a pager, notifying them
the moment their seat becomes open.
And unlike other Las Vegas poker rooms, players can call in to
reserve a place on a poker game list, and even if they’re
not present when it’s time claim a seat, their name may
be “rolled-over” for up to an hour.
When poker players
arrive, they can utilize special valet privileges or park their
own vehicle in a reserved area on the 5th floor of the parking
garage. (See the poker room manager. Parking passes are distributed
according to availability.)
Players are also treated to a complimentary continental breakfast
of pastries, juices and donuts from 9-11 AM daily.
And for beginners, free
poker lessons are available upon request, 24 hours a day,
7 days a week.
