    The sports bar by the book area in the Caesars Forum casino is gone, and has been replaced by a poker room. I couldn't find a slot attendant and was in a hurry as well so I wasn't able to ask anyone where the bartenders might be (admittedly, I didn't think the poker room people would know). Anyone know if the bartenders from that bar have been moved somewhere else? We've always had great service there.

    seems like a hectic area for a poker room.

    No idea what they were thinking. In May when I was there I walked from PHo to Caesers specifically to go to that bar and the whole area was walled off. This was RIGHT after my January trip when I played the Super Times Pay All Star bartops and fell in love even more because it's the only place I've ever seen those.

    These two places have 7/5 Bonus w/STP:
    Bally's: the bar in the VP area that's not named Sully's (All Star IIs), PHo: Extra Lounge (SuperStar Poker)

    Place that probably has 8/5 DDB w/STP (I don't really remember; I just know they didn't have 7/5 Bonus):
    Quad: Catalyst Bar (All Star IIs)

    I think Rio has them too, but I have only read that in a TR.

    So at least a few CET bars have been overhauled to have a few All Star IIs at the bar, which usually have STP and Double STP on them.


    I assume the area is closed for club expansion and/or poker room renovation.

    Caesars Sports Bar gone?

    Saw on another site that the bar was taken out for the new poker room. Anyone know where those bartenders have been moved? Spent a lot of time with Anthony at that bar and wonder where I can find him for our July trip...

    Curious minds want to know.

    I'm not sure which bar you are talking about, but I'm a huge fan of the Munch Bar inside Caesars, which may be new. I had a lot of fun watching NBA playoffs there in April

    Thanks for moving my post. I knew I had seen somewhere it had been taken out.

    The sports bar was the vp bar in the forum casino by the sports book. I just find it weird that they would take that bar out.

    Interesting. I would have thought that bar probably serviced the CWs on that end of the casino down to the Forum Shops entrance.

    Not that I liked that bar but, it was in a good area. Not good paytables but it was close to sports book. It will not happen, but I would like Caesars properties to bring back some of the VP paytables from years ago. (15 years?) I guess they have to make up for all the buying and leveraging that the CEO has done over the years. Look at the Linq and High Roller or overseas or eastern US. Board of directors,,, wake up!!! You need to take 80% of his money and give it back to the people that made 'Caesars' in the first place. As always, too bad for us..

    I was there last week and asked a guy at the sports book if he knew what happened to the bartenders. He said they'd been moved to other bars in the property (I never saw any of them). However he mentioned that the construction in front of the sports book was going to be a new sports book bar area. Should be finished by the end of the year. I just hope he's right.
