I agree, Flamingo is way better Choice, than the Rivera.
Basically you want the best location you can afford. Flamingo is center strip and within easy walking of the best poker rooms and I
think many of the young people clubs and hangouts. It also has one of the better pools (among the cheaper properties). Flamingo does have a poker room, but attracts an older crowd. It can have some good games, though. The Rivera is exactly the opposite, i.e.
it does not have a poker room and is not close to a poker room.
Check out a map for example
this one.
(You can other las vegas strip maps via Google. But this will do.)
See where the Rivera is and where the Flamingo is.
