Hi, off to Vegas for a week in Mid June. I intend to play most days but as I am going with the wife it may just be 3 tourneys. I can't decide on where to play. I am flexible and tempted by the WSOP side events but the juice is 10% and don't know if I can be arsed with the Rio. Thinking I might play at Venetian. Anyone got any tips or ideas on where the best value comps will be?
Cheers

Not really add $10 onto that for the optional add on that everyone takes for extra 20% chips.

I am just back - mirror what is said above

I played

Caesars Megastack series - 12 noon and 4pm
Binions Classic - I cashed in 11th in the $150 event 2, events going on throughout June, also at Golden Nugget
Aria Deepstack - I final tabled but went out 9th (7 paid) in the 7pm, also one at 1pm
MGM Grand - 11.05 and 7.05pm - $80 and soft field (I cashed 3rd for $443)

Venetian was outside my bankroll but is well recommended (they have Venetian Extravaganza on)

Anyone have any decent tips on the cash games? Where is the most action, widest range of stakes etc.
