What Vegas has been needing: Another new poker room!

I see that the "M Resort" will be opening in March, 2009, something like 3 miles south of South Point. You can see a general floor plan here, and tucked away in the lower left corner is a spot labeled "Poker room." Hard to tell much about it at this point, of course, but it's next to the sports book, with restrooms just outside the room, and it looks like there is some sort of wall or half-wall between the poker room and the main casino floor, with a deli just on the other side of the sports book. It also looks like the poker room is immediately adjacent to the parking garage. These are all good things. I'm hopeful.

Check out the latest construction photos here. Looks to me like a beautiful building, perhaps rivaling the Wynn for aesthetics, at least externally.

Rakewell, been meaning to ask: do you have any plans to come to and/or play in Southern California anytime soon?

I keep waiting for the inevitable Bicycle Club or Commerce story, but it never seems to come. Then again, why eat hamburger when you can get steak every night? :-)

It would be nice to sample the Bike and Commerce. Sooner or later I'm sure some excuse to head down there will crop up.
