Default vegas in dec

me and a bunch of other 2p2 guys (cts, jfish, djsensei? are the ones that i can think of right now) were talking about going to vegas in december, so i figured it would be a good idea to check with you guys who actually have vegas experience. i'm from sweden so i'm clueless.

what casinos have the best action? is the bellagio 10-20 no cap awesomely juicy?
what stakes do they regularly run?
would it be possible to find higher stakes than 10-20 somewhere between xmas and new years? 25-50? 50/100? higher? were?

pointers of which hotels that are good to stay in would be greatly appreciated too. obviously those close to the action are prefered. also, will any HSNL regulars be in vegas around then? i'm thinking it will be a sick trip.

i should hopefully be unemployed in december and was thinking about hitting up the old L V for a week or two. i haven't played higher than 5/10 live (kinda funny since i play 5/10 and 10/20 online pretty regularly) but i would definitely be interested in coordinating with you guys if you go.

The Mirage is a nice hotel, right in the middle of the strip between Bellagio and Wynn with Venetian across the street (room rates are cheap too). I stayed there in august and would recommend it.

As far as the action goes, I think all of the higher stakes NL games are at bellagio and wynn. Nobody else seems to have 5/10NL or higher. And it depends a lot on the time of year too, I don't know how crowded vegas is around new years (hopefully there are lots of stupid tourists then) but the more people there, the more action at the cardrooms (and thus the higher stakes they'll host)

Never stayed at Bellagio, but I've stayed and played at The Wynn several times and don't want anything else - really nice rooms, awesome service, great food and buffet. The 5/10 game can be either pretty tough or extremely loose-aggro and juicy, depending on who's there at the time. If there's enough interest, they'll spread 25/50nl as well. Overall, I'd go with Wynn (but, again, haven't stayed at Bellagio).
