I was taking pictures today for Bluff at Day 1b of the $25K WPT Championship. After a few hours and no breakfast, I was a little hungry, so I mentioned I was going to get a quick bite to eat. Court, the P5s tournament reporter, mentioned that, as a press person, I would be able to get into the employee-only buffet. The entrance to it is through a set of white double doors just to the left of the regular buffet.

And I have to say, that area of the Bellagio is extremely “oompah loompah”-like. It looks different than the rest of the casino, but not really in a worse way. It’s just different. Maybe because of the lack of gaming. Either way, it was bizarre to be walking around in a crowd of maids, dealers, floormen, etc. The buffet itself was actually pretty good. It wasn’t too different from the regular buffet upstairs.

Oh, and no one ever gave me a second look. I think pretty much anyone could go down there and load up on food at the buffet.
