appreciate the response.

Hmm, in regards the the hotel, the only thing I don't want to happen is that I arrive and there are no poker rooms left, I'm guessing they have an allotted # of rooms and once they're gone that's it? or is the poker room rate for all rooms that aren't filled? Also if I'm there with a friend can we split the hours (unlikely)? Do I have to check out and check back in every day or can I just tell them to keep the room and I will play the # of hours needed (depends on casino host)?

Thanks for the info everyone, appreciate it. I'm currently using expedia to book a hotel for at least 3 nights, it seems cheaper to book flight+hotel together.
