There are some very soft games in the MGM, especially $2/$4 or $3/$6 limit. If your playing NL then spend a bit of time watching the tables as you get some pretty useful regulars at $1/$2NL, they usually have 3 full tables going all the time.If you are going to play there a lot sign up to the players club card and you will get $1 per hour of play, not much but it will pay for a couple of buffets by the time you leave. I would also recommend the bloody Mary's and vanilla stolli and coke served in the poker room , just don't over do it if your playing NL.
All the best and good variance for your trip.

THe cheapest i found was BMI direct from Manchester for £380. I did book like 6 weeks in advance tho. The biggest tip is not to stick to traditional 2 or 3 weeks, mess about with the dates if you can and I got that price for 19 days. GL

i lasted 20 hours before going broke. Hte the place with a passion. Ran the worst i ever have before in my life. Nice timing pokergods, cheers.
Now have to find a way of living on $25 for the next 2 weeks.
ARGHHHHHH
Sadly, Vegas shatters many a dream. Everyone goes thinking it's the road to poker fulfilment, but 9 out of 10 (at LEAST) come back with less than they went with, many of them totally boracic, & with faces like seaside donkeys.
I guess every poker player needs to see it for themselves, & I don't blame them for that, but the Marketing boys hyped it up treat, & did some job.
