pt. 1 Vegas virgin...5 nights at the Bellagio?
 

I am a mid stakes NL cash game player who enjoys the occasional donkament. The summer grind has provided me with an opprotunity... As a Vegas virgin I am very excited to embark on my journey. I have reserved 5 nights at the B and requested the poker rate. In my attempt to ball out of control I would like to make the trip as memorable/ profitable as I can. In this attempt my boundaries of EF (Expected fun) will shadow the all concepts of EV. With this being said I have a list of questions hopefully you Vegas [censored] can answer...(EXPERIENCED [censored] please reply)

A. Game selection. What casinos have the softest Mid Stakes NL Cash games? I plan on playing 2-5 5-10? Largest NL poker room in LV? donkaments?

B. The B. Upon requesting the poker rate the receptionist said 6 hours of poker are required. How do they keep track? How can I avoid this if I find a better game?

C. Dining. What are some great resturaunts? I am willing to spend between 40-100$ a meal...(recommendations)

D. All you can eat baby. What casino has the best buffet?

E. Entertainment. Stip clubs (high end)??? Night Shows? Concerts?

All your answers are in recent (last few weeks) threads.

Others will be able to help you out some more but I will get the ball rolling.

A. The 5-10 right there at the B is pretty nice and is very convenient for you of course. I found it to be juicier than the Wynn. You can also get a game there anytime of the day or night, which you can't say for the V and the Wynn (I was the last man left at about 6 a.m one time.)

D. Paris is very large, huge array of food there. They say the Rio is the biggest but I haven't been there. Generally, most of the buffets have a good selection, if you go to the less pricey hotels the buffets are a bit cheaper. I thought Caesars was nice- pleasing decor and a good price.

E. If you're interested in clubs get some of the free passes from the guys on the Strip they do work and will save you dough. They have a few strip clubs among them although I didn't visit those establishments. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

The keep track with a card which the brush will use to sign you in and out with on each visit. (and why couldn't you easily put in 6 hours there)?

A. Bellago, Venetian, MGM (weekends), and Wynn. Venetian and Bellagio for tournaments.

B. Give players card to the desk.

C. Need more info.

D. Bellagio, Wynn, Rio (seafood), Paris (Sunday)

E. Strip Club: Spearmint Rhino. Other stuff, depends what you're lloking for, ask hotel concierge.

Only replied to this cuz just finished watching two coreys then realized your name is spelled different. Spend 30 minutes going thru first few pages of this forum and all this is answered in great detail.

Re: pt. 1 Vegas virgin...5 nights at the Bellagio?
 

A. Bellagio, Wynn, MGM if there is a prizefight for sure

B. All you need to do is check in with the brush when you get in a game. Your hours can average out. So if you spend 8 hours there for three days, you are set for four nights of your stay. Dig?

C. You are in for a possible surprise. Just about any decent place is going to put you in the $40-$100 range, especially if you are drinking. The really good places are going to be over $100 per person. But this forum attracts people who like that kind of thing, so tell us how much you really can afford for your blockbuster meal, what kind of food interests you (the forum has plenty of travelers too, so mention a restaurant you have been to and been impressed by and people can likely match something similar) and you will get good recommendations. Basically, need more info.

D. Paris is good, Wynn gets high marks, but have not been there personally

E. Again, need more info. Are you interested in shows? If so what kind? What do you like out of your strip club experience?
