Anyone have a spare bed/need a roommate/know of anyone that does from the
15th June until 24th June this year.
cheers

You can get a room @ The Quad for £500, or the tunnels are pretty warm in June
Alternatively, you could try 2p2 to see if there are any spare rooms going in houses.

The hotel has had a makeover downstairs I believe, but the rooms are pretty old. Nothing wrong with them if you just want to get your head down on the cheap.
The £485 is with lowcostusa, and that's the cheapest I found centre strip for those dates, but you're the victim of EDC unfortunately, otherwise it would be a fair bit cheaper.
I stayed there the 2nd time I went to Vegas, and would have no problem staying there again. They also have a Fat Tuesdays downstairs <3

They're all in on the coup now unfortunately, so you're not likely to save much by staying anywhere but the tunnels.
Last year I got away with it by booking up 3 nights with lowcostusa separately from my main booking with the Nugget.
This year they want over £300 for the 20/21st June, so I'm flying out on the 22nd and paying £500 for the 14 nights after that.
Cheapest room with lowcost is at the 4 Queens @ £393 for the same dates, so you're better off paying an extra £100 and being right amongst the action.
The alternative is to book a room from the 15th until the 20th, and then store your bags for a couple days while pulling a 48hr session at the tables
15th-20th @ Quad is £84 and the 22-24th is £134

This sounds like the more fun alternative! Book them two lots and then see how the first week goes. If it goes wank im in the tunnels!
Cheers for the help much appreciated as always!

Haha, no worries.
I'd probably just flick the money in for a room, and hope that my winnings would cover it...

You only have to walk out of the Hilton and you're in the South Terminal.
I stayed there last year, really enjoyed it, service was really good and everything was problem free and as marky said, you only have to walk out and you're in the South Terminal which is a massive bonus.
They also gave me a free bottle of red wine as well for no apparent reason which was a nice touch.
that was meant for me #tosser

I go to Vegas in a week, been plenty of times before but never during wsop
What sort of satellites run at the rio, only looking at a couple of side events, probs the $1k on the 29th and the $1.5k on the 31st
Would I be right in thinking some satellite sit n gos will be running 24/7?
