Walk down the strip and every time you hear a "clack clack", say "Hey, can I have one of those cards?".

You will want to play the $15/30 game at the Bellagio. Very beatable game, with good action, and average players.

Definitley check out the Wynn, Bellagio, MGM, Mirage, and Ceasers poker rooms. They are the best on the strip. If you get time, go to the Top of the World resaurant at the top of the Stratosphere tower. Amazing veiw, and excellent food. Dinners range from $35-$100, and lunches range from $10-$35. Definitely worth checking out, just make sure to make a reservation and dress nice.

1. bellagio brunch
2. go watch the treasure island display: two actual size pirate ships fighting, cannons fire, one actually sinks and then real people fall into the water
3. excalibur has the loosest quarter slots
4. binions has the best tournaments

Actually, Ceasers has the best tournaments. They run daily noon and 7 p.m. The buy-in's range from $80 up to $200+. The blind levels are 40 minutes. You won't find a better structure on the strip, especially for the lower buy-in tourney's.

You will probably have to lower your limits, but go down to Fremont street and play at Binion's just 'cuz. I did and enjoyed myself and I'm happy to say that I have done it at least once. I hear the Golden Nugget has a nice room too, so make a day for downtown.

I'm pretty sure they got rid of this about 2 years ago and replaced it with the SIRENS show, which is even gayer
