Dealing Poker at the 2024 Orleans Summer Open -- Week 1 Recap

This summer will have about no poker, but it will have a lot of dealing poker. I'm dealing the summer poker series at The Orleans on W Tropicana in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Orleans Summer Open is the official name. Here are my tales.

Players at Orleans can be difficult.....some of the regulars are just cranky. But there are some that are helpful.

[@pistol9700]

Need a video on biggest 5 tip amounts by hands… amount, circumstances, pot size, etc.

[@Daniel-ix2sy]

It’d be cool to hear about any interesting hands you saw that day.

[@theo3000]

Which Stray Cat did you see? Brian Setzer, Lee Rocker, or Slim Jim Phantom?

[@VegasPokerNomad]

Very nice.

[@DankMiddys]

4k subs is right around the corner. It has been great watching this channel grow!

[@VegasPokerNomad]

Glad you're enjoying it.

If you go to Milwaukee, try to stop at Minneapolis and play at Canterbury Park. The 2-100 spread limit is similar to 1-3 no-limit. The uncapped buy-in can make it wild at times.

[@melissathompson7229]

Minneapolis? You mean Shakopee. Obviously i know hes not from here but its a good 30-40 minutes from Minneapolis. Maybe Running Aces would be easier for him?

[@rh7062]

Can you do a video tour of the Orleans Casino.

[@VegasPokerNomad]

I don't know if I should be filming in there. I'll look into it.

[@loydbridges6214]

Sounds like it’s going well.

[@VegasPokerNomad]

Yeah

[@rudistorm3348]

Stayed at Orleans a few years back for my friends daughter's gymnastic meet. That small arena there is pretty nice.

[@VegasPokerNomad]

Never been inside. I know there's some basketball there during the conference tournament week though.

[@du041248]

Fantastic

[@777BrokeDegen]

oh I think the World Series of poker automatically knows that a bunch of people are gonna quit I think it was the Covid year 2021 in the fall we like maybe 20% quit right away

[@jmsfabrication7821]

Can you film in the EDR? I'm kind of interested in what it looks like. I wonder if you could win a challenge of just eating from the EDR for a week?

[@VegasPokerNomad]

I don't know. I'll probably get some pictures eventually. Maybe footage. -- Lol. I've done it already. I think I had 5 apples I'm keeping in the Airbnb this week and the rest is the EDR.

[@jmsfabrication7821]

@@VegasPokerNomad Too bad they wouldn't let you stay at the Orleans!

[@ttouran]

do you think your game is improving watching all these different players?

[@VegasPokerNomad]

Q&A upcoming. That's one of the first questions.

[@Christine-ut4dv]

Love the informative vids!

[@VegasPokerNomad]

Thanks

2 weeks seems to be the time frame that soft people melt away from a job thats harder than they thought

[@fkscopes]

When I used to work roofing they'd either never come back from lunch break or never show up the 2nd day if they did make it through the first.

[@mattnewman3884]

Any chance you’re considering a career as a poker dealer now? Maybe not full time but as a permanent part time dealer someplace?

[@mattnewman3884]

Maybe he’s just taking advantage of the opportunity of dealing 2 months during the summer to try it out?

[@VegasPokerNomad]

Q&A upcoming within a week. I don't want to spoilt it before then.

[@ziggy814]

I didn't run into you when I was there maybe next time... I was wondering maybe you know maybe not but would having a non violent felony disqualify you from being able to be a dealer? Also it is from 2009

[@VegasPokerNomad]

I don't know. I think you need to say if one happened in the last 5 years. I don't know about older ones. I don't know if it automatically disqualifies you. I don't know if violent or not makes a difference.

[@TheHeldover]

Do you ever have trouble reading an Omaha 8 hand when someone says they have a LIVE card?

[@VegasPokerNomad]

A guy said that yesterday. I got the gist of it.

[@brad2109]

Comment for the algorithm

[@davidshydez4491]

Are the cash games busy at the orleans ?

[@joshmorrow9872]

Seem pretty busy this time of year

[@VegasPokerNomad]

Yeah

[@joeballzee2767]

Orleans is the worst room in Vegas. Stupid dealers and dirty players. Floor manager was arrested for stealing.

[@VegasPokerNomad]

Only play at Aria.

[@D3cyf3ar]

one week $280 bucks great

[@VegasPokerNomad]

I'm sure you believe that.
