Anyone ever played poker in a vegas casino?  I don't think I could...  I'd be so intimidated!  Maybe I need a few more home games to get my confidence up.

If you have how did you do?  Was it everything you thought it would be and then some!?

I have, I am a pretty good poker player, I have won thousands of dollars in Vegas.. but I spent a lot of it on those addicting slot machines! STAY AWAY FROM THEM if you ever go to Vegas! Those things are just horrible!

I've never been to Vegas but I have played poker in a casino in Shreveport, LA a few times. It's a lot of fun, but the people who play there are very serious and intense. you have to bring your A game.

 We visited Vegas once. I only played on the slot machines. Did not have the guts to play at the tables. Don't know enough to risk money on it. 

I did watch though. 

Dont be scared of the tables.  Once you sit down and play you will see most of the players (almost all of them) are no different then you.  1/2 NL tables that is.  I was pretty wired the first time I sat down, but with in minutes I settled down.  cant speak for the larger limit tables,
