Default Bankroll and limit for Vegas

I did a search on this and couldn't find anything ......

I am going to Vegas for the next five days...and will probably play poker for about 25 hours over that period of time. I currently play 1-2 and 2-4 online (shorthanded) and do fairly well....in a live game what would a comparable limit to play and also what kind of bakroll would I need? I was planning on bringing about $1500. Thanks for any suggestions, also where would the best places to play at these limits?

is the 1500 just for poker? i would say 1-2 and 2-4 online compare to 5-10 or 10-20 live...possibly even higher. but, i wouldn't plan on playing higher than 5-10 on that roll starting off.

Yes, the 1500 will be allocated just for Poker

Interesting. Are you saying comparable as far as opponent skill is concerned? If yes, then I'm inclined to agree.

Play between $4-8 and $8-16 in Vegas. 100 BB for a trip playing live games is usually about right. If you can beat $2-4 online soundly both of these games should be well within your skill level. Look around also at $6-12 and such. You'll have a lot to choose from.

The Bellagio. You'll have the most game selection at virtually anytime of the day there.

Bellagio $4/8 is the spot. It'll probably play looser and more passively than the shorthanded games you usually play. I have heard Wynn $4/8 is also good. Don't be too afraid to play a little higher either.
