I dunno about the poker rates, but Sahara wins out for a few good reasons:

1.) Kids. CC has em, Sahara doesn't.

3.) Poker is better at Sahara in terms of quantity of game offerings. CC's poker room sucks.

By better do you mean better players or better atmosphere? Are the kids good players?

Kids as in teensy tiny human beings that are not allowed to legally gamble in a casino yet are allowed to do all sorts of annoying things like run around screaming and hollering and peeing in the pool and stuff.

4.) Monorail station. Its still too far to walk from CC to anywhere really, so the availibility of the monorail station is a bonus.

I was planning on using my savings to rent a car.

In that case, look more into staying at Orleans which is MUCH nicer and only a few minutes drive from great low roller rooms at MGM and Excalibur. Also check into Golden Nuggets room special(listed on their website) as it is like $59-69 a night on weekdays($99 weekends) and their new pool area just rocks.

Unless you are getting Sahara for like $39 weekdays/under $79 weekends, you really should look around a bit more for a better place to stay.
