Posted by clark | Posted in Free Stuff / Promotions, Las Vegas Gaming, Las Vegas News, Las Vegas News Blog, Las Vegas Poker News, Pokerstars, Prof's Vegas Poker Blog, R.C. Clark | Posted on 16-01-2012

Today starts a new poker promotion at Red Rock Station.
 
From 2 a.m. to 10 a.m. daily, the high hand of that period in the poker room receives $1,000.
 
The hand must be at least Aces Full and you must play both cards.
 
If you share the same hand, you’ll split the prize.
 
The flier takes care to mention that this prize does not come from the jackpot drop, it’s funded entirely by Red Rock.
 
A nice extra, eh?

Not only can you meet him, but poker guru Bob Dancer will be teaching classes on all the games he plays (to the tune of 800,000 hands per year).  And during each, maybe he'll even discuss everything else that factors into successful video poker playing -- like casino comps, points, promotions, and other freebies.
 
And ironically enough, it's being taught for free... at a casino.

2011 NACAR Sprint Car Champion Tony Stewart leads the Las Vegas Strip Victory Lap

Cold, windy weather and under a canopy of threatening clouds did not deter the thousands of NASCAR fans from lining both sides of the Las Vegas Strip for a close-up look at their racing heros and noble steads.  A NASCAR sprint car is as much of a star attraction as the drivers and crews.  These colorful power monsters can smoke the huge racing slicks at will while producing enough noise (high-tech music to race fan ears) to get a fleet of 747's airborne.

Recently remodeled Tropicana Las Vegas

The new Tropicana poker room is all snazzy and comfortable (plus right next to the bar, so fast drink service), but whenever we've been by, there's only been one table running.

 

Trop is now trying to switch things up with special promotions, including a novel splash pot in a cash game that acts like a tournament.

 

Play any cash game for 15 hours between Nov. 21-27 (10 a.m. to 3 p.m.) and you'll qualify.
