I was down there in November and there was plenty of places to play. The best is probably Mirage, lots of 3-6 hold em. I also played at the Sands and the Sahara. You can get a list of tournaments from homepokergames.com , there are alot of them. And remember to not drink to much at the tables, it is kind of hard not to when the drinks are free. Also remember to tip your dealers and waitresses. Later

Try lasvegasadvisor.com, lots of info and links to everything in Vegas. The free part of their forum has a lot of info as well. Played at Luxor when I was there back in May, good poker room but smaller, I"ve heard a lot more poker rooms have opened since then.

I was also in Vegas in November. Played low-limit at a number of places.

Bellagio 4-8
Golden Nugget 4-8
Mirage 3-6
Luxor 2-4
Binions 2-4
Excalibur 2 to 6 spread limit
Aladin 2-4

Places we dropped by the poker room but didn't play at:
Mandalay Bay
Monte Carlo


Bellagio 4-8 was definitely the best game. Lots of tourists, very loose-passive and 4-8 is their lowest limit so that is where all the newbies were. Also get to see some of the pros playing. When i was there I saw Gus Hanson, Paul Phillips, Carlos Mortenson, TJ Cloutier and a few others. Mirage also had very good game.
