Default Vegas SNGs

I'm in Vegas. Where is the best place to play a live sng? I play low stakes but understand that the lowest buy ins are around 60, which is fine.

1.) Find the biggest shithole of a Casino in town
2.) Find the dorkiest-looking drunk in the place
3.) That will be Bones
4.) Buy him a drink; then ask-away

The vig on SNG's in casinos is ridiculous. As long as you know what beats what I'd stick to cash games.

Don't play Vegas SNGs evah. Rake is insane. Would you play $60+$15 online? There you go ...

just as bad as $2.4 + $0.6 and $1 + $0.25, loads of players play these. I would never play in them though.

There's no place where they run consistently AFAIK. Caesars runs them sometimes. I've won both of the Orleans SNGs I've played in.

I will say nothing beats refusing a deal at a live SNG when it gets down to 2-3 people and having the other people give you stink eye for the rest of the tourney.
