If you're gonna play at the Venetian stay at Harrahs if you're gonna play at Caesars stay at Ballys both of them are much of a muchness, it's just the cab fares you'll save by being closer to the cardroom of said casinos.

This is sound advice.

If you feel you're gonna get stressed out by it all, I recommend the Orleans too. 24hr bowling and a cinema = win after doing your brains in cash.

C'mon guys - its a pretty easy game.

a) take the best discount rate you can in a 4* + hotel where that is better than the poker rate
b) If that price is higher than a poker rate, take the poker rate
c) when you get there, slip the manager/poker host a twenty discreetly (as in don't shout across the cardroom!) and ask if there will be any problem with your room.

err.. that's it.

Ok - for the sake of completeness, if you managed to be the first person ever to fail at this, and you don't want to meet the poker obligation, start at a) again and check out.

Yeah you don't even need to do this at the Venetian during the deepstacks as one of the managers posts the code for rooms on 2p2. You give the code on booking and you don't even need to play a tournament. As you have given the code when you ring and book the room, you are charged 89/139 for the duration of your stay.

LOL, you actually don't see too many hookers in the casinos at all these days, they normally throw them out. I first went to Vegas about 16 or 17 years ago and the place was rammed with them. You couldn't get a drink at any bar without being approached, some real babes too...........

Nah they're still everywhere, almost every casino you go into they are floating about. There weren't a ton of them in PH, they do hang about at the 'Heart bar' though if you're looking. The ones I saw were pretty tidy tbf although when you've been slamming Sambucas/Vodka for about 12 hours what doesn't look good  Cheesy

Yes, you have to add resort fee of $17 per day to Venetian/Palazzo price.  I stayed at Palazzo and got Deepstack discount when I booked as they are sister hotels.  I did play a deepstack so have no idea whether this was somehow known when I checked out, but they never asked and it wasn't shown on the bill.
