Default Going to vegas what room has the best sngs/5-6 table mtt

I'm going to vegas to see UFC 71 and while I'm there i'd like to play some poker tournies. I'll be playing mostly for fun, but I'd also like a chance to win and play in some of the lowest fee/totalbuyin possible. I play mostly sngs so that would be my preference, but I'm also fan of mtts

I have included a link to what I have found so far regarding vegas tourneys. Is this list all inclusive of the games in town and do any stters have any experience playing these?

The best tourneys with good structures are at Caesars and the Venetian. The cost from $130 to $220 including all rebuys. These are two of the nicest rooms in Vegas.

Sahara has the best structure for a lower buyin game at $62 and these run about three times a day. This room is not very nice but its a very good tourney and the dealers are pretty good for the most part.

All of the above tourneys are bigger fields; about 75 - 100 people.

The smaller game at Paris is ok but I dont care as much for the structure. I think this game is $65.

That All Vegas Poker site is great for descriptions of the rooms, but here's a link for the best tourney schedule in Vegas:

There is much better tourney info on this site, although none of the sites give you 100% accurate info on all the tourneys. Call whatever card room you are thinking about playing at for details about times and buyins.

They are all pretty good on the strip. None charge an hourly rate.

Yeah when I was in 7th grade, so I'm eager to actually do something when I'm there.

I'm willing to go up to $200 for a mtt live

Caesars ($130) at noon and Venetian ($180) at 8pm would be what I'd do if I were you.

The structure and vig in live SNGs suck.
