Default Poker trip - any ideas?

I'm looking to take a nice weekend vacation in late April, and my decision is pretty much depending on where the nicest casino/scenery combo is. I'd like a round-trip ticket to be no more than about $300-$400 and I need a casino that has some nice MTT's for like $30-$80 and some NL hold 'em ring games (Like $200 NL would be preferred), and maybe some Omaha H/L ring games too. Places I'm thinking of right now include L.A. (for the Morongo), the Bahamas possibly, maybe London (flights are usually more expensive there), and I would really love other suggestions for destinations and their casinos. Since flights out of the country are normally more expensive, could you guys give any suggestions for websites where I could find cheaper tickets for these destinations? The more details about the casinos, the better (why they're good, etc.). Thanks.

lol I'm not going to any of those places to explore too much, I really just want to gamble a lot and explore a little during the day time (maybe like play 14 hours of poker, sleep 5 hours, explore 5 hours, repeat, lather, rinse, repeat)

I would go to St Louis. Just drive down, good poker and lots of stuff to see.

yes, LA is best for all your requirements; check out the Getty Museum which also has great views and it's definitely worth a car rental to cruise all the big poker rooms and see the area
