Going to Vegas in 4 hours

[MikeHoncho]

I am gonna be in Vegas this weekend and I'm looking to play a MTT with a good structure. I'm looking for something in the $500 or less range for the buy-in.

Any suggestions as far as particular casinos (and times if possible)? My main priority is the blind structure since most low dollar buy-in tourneys I have played in have had crappy structures.

Venetian...I think they have a noon and 7...great tourney structure...

Mike,

go to allvegaspoker.com to get a great overview. Bellagio and Venetian will probably best suit your needs.

Mike,
Your ROI will be twice as high if you choose to play in the Caesars tournament (I think its $80 buy in with $50 rebuy that you can take at any time and 80% of the people take it up front.) This blind structure is decent but the skill level in this tournament could not be any lower and I highly reccomend it.

I believe that the tournament starts at noon or 1pm and that they run a slightly higher buy in at 7pm. When I was there they got about 125 runners.

Have fun,
Steve

Thanks for the advice guys. I am staying at Ceasars so that rebuy tournament may be a good option.

the wynn if they still have those $300-500 tourneys with 5k stacking stacks

Casers has a $330 buy-in at noon on Friday and Saturday with 1/2 hour levels and you start with 10,000 chips. Study the blind schedule closely because it takes a couple of big jumps (a normal blind increase plus introducing or raising antes at the same time). Still lots of play for the money.

When I was there a few months ago that tourney got 30 players and ~25 of them had a solid grasp of tournament poker.

Its a great structure but it seems pretty unnecessary to play in the one tournament with good players
