Sounds like you had a blast,just got back from vegas myself,13 lads on my 40th birthday so not as much poker as i would have liked.Here's a little run down of the rooms i visited;
  MGM GRAND-i was staying at this hotel and played a bit of 1/2nl(i normally only play tournys) i'd heard it was a loose game there,full of tourists but most plyers were pretty solid and i stuggled to make a profit.I played three session and made about $500(about 9 hours in total),the room was loud which i didn't mind,but the drink service was slow so it wasn't my fave.
  VENETIAN-played one of the deep stack extravaganses $340 buy in,great stucture,40 min levels,6pm start.Lots of poor players,many stroppy exits,threats etc in the first few levels,but once it settled down it was a great tourny.Made the final table out of 130 runners,went out 8th at 3.30 in the morning for $1100,i won't take you through my badbeat but i thought the $12k first prize was within reach.The cocktail waitress were simply out of this world,silicone enhanced fast service with a smile,i dread to think how much i drank in those 9 hours.Overall a great poker room very professional staff and dealers,i'd love to have played a few more of these tournys which run all month but time didn't allow.
  CAESARS PALACE-with a massive hangover and 3 hours of sleep i played the £330 noon tourny,40 min levels 10k chips,so a couple of cups  of tea later i started to fell human again and hit the drink.had a great time lots of friendly people with some great banter in a lovely setting,probably my fav.went out 14th(payed 7)after 6 hours,got a bit unlucky to go out but i really enjoyed the place,didn't see any suckers playing there so it must have been me.

The rest of my trip was great,the voodoo lounge on the 50 floor of the rio was a highlight,the place was bouncing on friday night,no problem getting all 13 lads in and the views in so many different ways were spectacular.

While we were over there, we met some lads who were over in a large group.  Think there was 13 of them from Farnborough.  They were telling us they were all from a new poker place in that area..  Wasnt you lot was it?
