Trip to Vegas Tips

[trogers]

Planning my first trip to Vegas, Just curious if there are any good sites with flight plan deals, hotels. And if anyone has gone, how much spending money they typically take. I have been all over the country but have not ended up in Vegas yet.

I'm going for my third trip in January for six days and paying just 300 for hotel/flight with 1 roommate. I'm a Total Rewards member (Caesars Casinos Reward Program) so I get room discounts and as for flights i just usually go to flights.google.com- they combine all the airlines on one screen for your dates. Spending money is dependent on what you want to do... You can do a lot for cheap but be prepared with a poker bankroll if that's what you're going to do. I plan on playing the daily tournament at the Aria in January. Lastly, you can generally eat out for relatively cheap if you want to and look around enough.

so that is 300 per person for flight/hotel right? Taking someone with me and just started researching. figured I could get a head start here

Yea our hotel room is 300 or so for the 6 nights and were splitting that and our flight from Ohio to Vegas is about 150.

Budget well, if you have a rough first day you don't wanna spend too much that day because it will hamper the ability to see titties later in the trip.

Words of wisdom riv hahaha

Honestly the cheapest way to enjoy it is to look around for the best value tournaments during daytime and night time; a lot of casinos (because of the competition) offer some nice $60-$70 buy in events that attract enough people to make 1st place well worth it.

If you get on a roll, the Bellagio does a really nice $300 deepstack afternoon tournament.

But above all else...remember the titties.

If you are flying out of the north west, consider flying from Bellingham. They often have great seat sales and packages. I once went to Vegas for $49 through Bellingham. If you want to avoid cigarette smoke vdara hotel is nonsmoking. Good luck at the tables

You go to Vegas don't get too drunk your first night there, at most only drink 4-5 times as much as u would normally drink at home, I learned this the hard was with a severe hangover and play poker all day next day and walk around in hot heat, no good.
