Hi Guys  

Still a Vegas Virgin however I've just got the green light to make the trip this year.

Definitely something Im looking forward to it but needs a good amount of planning.

Ill be looking to fly in on June 12/13th and will be playing  mainly a WSOP NL schedule culminating with the main event (likely to be playing Day 1B on June the 6th )

To all intent and purposes I guess you could call this a working holiday so although I like the odd drink I'm no party animal and would prefer a quiet hotel with a gym and swimming pool ideally not too far away from the poker action .

I've read through most of this thread and like Simons Vdra Hotel suggestion but was wondering for 3/4 weeks has anybody got any alternatives or indication of prices if you were to block book etc.

Any Accommodation Advice or just general tips would be appreciated.

Cheers & Thanks in Advance

palms place mate, vdara really expensive this year. i can send you some slightly cheaper prices if you want.

Just had a quick look on Main Event, and Low Cost USA, and you can get 28 days at Palms Place for ~£2100 with LCUSA (exc resort fee), or £2400 for 30 days with MET (unsure about resort fee)

If you're looking to put in most of your volume at the Rio, this would be ideal. As it has it's own fitness centre & spa etc.

Ebookers had Vdara for £102 per day, which comes out at £3.4k for 28 days, when you add in the resort fees.

Given that your dates encompass the 3 days of EDC, that's not a bad deal, as even bad hotels are very expensive that weekend.

If you're wanting to be on the strip for the that long, I'd suggest doing what I used to do when I was more mobile, and stay in 2-3 hotels, dependent on length of trip



Cheers Mark .

Looks like I need to give the palms some serious consideration too

Pads if you could send me " the cheaper prices " that would be great . I assume you are there ? what dates etc ?

Cheers

If you don't mind moving hotels, try Vdara Sun-Thu via LowCostUsa and then weekends at the Gold Coast (WSOP rate advertised on their offers page). Should work out less than £75 per night including all taxes and resort fees.

i am a mug, make me an ironside mug

Apologies.  Unless you went out with 65, you coincidentally look like someone else!

Was that the guy who knocked me out?

No. I knocked out yourself and ITB.

I then proceeded to donk the rest off to Ironside with 84 vs AA.

I've just had an email from Titan saying they were crediting the rebuy prizes.

Not got access to Titan here so cannot verify this.
