I played many times at the Wynn poker room and recommend STAY AWAY! Why? Because in my opinion, based on playing well over 500,000 live and online hands, there is a lot of collusion against tourists and out of towners in the Wynn Poker room. There are a LOT of locals, regulars, dealers etc. who play at the Wynn poker room. And after having read two books on poker collusion, cheats and angle shoots, my opinion was that the games I played there were regularly rampant with collusion and soft play between them. They targeted the tourists. I did not sense the same at the Aria where I really enjoyed the PLO and NLH. However, even at the Aria, players told me that cheating and collusion were happening there, but at the higher stakes tables.
I would still trust the low limit games at the Aria, but the Wynn is simply out and I'd NOT recommend it's poker room to anyone. It's a shame because it's a physically nicer poker room than Aria. It's beautiful. Now here is my disclaimer: this is my opinion only based on 35 years of playing poker live and online; this is based on playing occasionally over the course of at least 3 years; the last time I played there was in 2018 (after which I swore I'd never play there again. Have things changed there since 2018? Well ask around and find out if it's still a favorite of locals and dealers. If yes, stay away.
Go to their buffet lol, because it's the best buffet in Vegas instead. It's a beautiful hotel (nicer than Aria), with great restaurants and a very nice atmosphere. After the Mandarin Oriental closed, I think the rooms are amongst the best in Vegas.
