The 15-30 is played with red $5 chips. The 30-60 is played with blue $10 chips. Both are 2-3 blinds.

Seriously? I really have to deal with chips that small? Will people look at me funny if I bring 20$ or 25$ chips into the game?

Otherwise I'd be buying in for like three racks, blah.

scary tiger, lol! You are going to have a blast playing live. Lots of people are just there to show off how tough they are with their big stacks of chips and long staring contests.

My advice: bring more than 6k and play as high as you can. If I knew you better I'd offer to take half of you cuz you will probably have 3+ bb/100 edge even in 60/120.

Also, you will probably find that vegas is a bit of a miserable place, particulalry when all ur doing is hanging out around bellagio poker room. Try and get off strip for a while--donk around in a craps game in downtown, go swimming in lake mead, and/or go eat thai food at a local restaurant.
