Default Tourneys in Vegas

I will be in Vegas next month on Wed-Sat. I have to attend meetings during the day but would like to play in a NL holdem tourney at night. My gambling budget is $400. I will be staying at the Wynn (their tourneys start at noon). I was thinking of Binion's. Any suggestions?? Thanks

How many tourneys would you like to play? Are you only going to be playing tournaments? Play at TI's $65 at 10a.m.

400 DOLLAR Bankroll and your staying at the wynn.

Better to say at the gold spike downtown and have a 746 dollar bankroll for gambling [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

That said play the sahara's tournaments the 7 o clocker usually has 100 ppl and a good blind structure

Suggestion: Don't bother coming to Vegas with only 400 bucks and stay at Wynn.

The blinds structure at Binions is pretty sad. Degenerates to an all-in fest too quickly. The tourneys at Planet hollywood have a decent structure, i think they have one starting at 7PM everyday and the buy-in is something like 60 or 70 bucks. TI = Treasure Island.

Ignore your budget critics. The hotel choice probably wasn't yours and that "high-roller" hotel choice shouldn't be measured against your "low roller" poker budget.

AllVegasPoker.com tries to keep a comprehensive tourney list. Also, a recent posting had Planet Hollywood tourney's looking good for overall structure and low cost.

Binions cheap tourneys and Planet Hollywood are about the same as far as structure goes. The Binions $110 are a lot better. If the guy is looking for good structure he should take the short walk to the Sahara or go to the Orleans which is far better than Planet Hollywood Tournament Structure
