You can also just use google maps. Get directions between two points. Click the bus icon and it give you various bus routes and when the next bus arrives.

I know these questions have probably been asked before, but I don't really follow this forum anymore and someone with a bit of knowledge could save me hours of research so here I go:

- What are some of the most cost/effective hotels for 2 week stay? I'm no baller, I stayed at MGM in 2009 back when I had money but I'm looking for something much cheaper.

- I'm planning on going early May. Is there going to be enough action at that time or should I expect tight games filled with regulars?

Thanks!

I'm going to be there Feb 8-11. Not getting the prices I used to get on Total Rewards. I can get a pretty decent rate at Ballys, but would kinda like to stay somewhere more upscale. Does anyone sell their comps at nicer places here anymore? Would I be better off asking in the Marketplace? I had someone do this for me before, but I don't think he lives in Vegas anymore.

I honestly think your best route is attempting the $20 trick.

yeah, I'll do that, but thought maybe someone might have some comps at Cosmo, Palazzo, Wynn, or somewhere similar that they'd want to meet in the middle on.

Hey guys, what's the procedure when renting without paystubs? This thread suggests paying the entire lease up front but I don't want to do that. Could I get approved by showing my bank account balance? Is $50k enough?

Just rent from private landlords on craigslist (avoiding rule-bound real estate management companies), flash a roll of Ben Franklins, and nobody will hassle you about pay stubs. At worst they will charge you $35 for a credit check (which they will skip and pocket the $35).

Going vegas for the first time in a couple of weeks and am a live poker noob.

I can tip the waitress with the chips I am playing with right?

Also, what kind of drinks can I get that are free while playing?

Can I get beer, wine?

I also heard that if you ask for something like rum and coke they will only put a drop of rum on it and mostly coke, is that true? What kind of drinks should I order if I want a high alcohol to drink ratio?

And, not sure if this is appropriate, but is it safe/okay to ask random stoner looking people and homeless if they can hook you up with weed?

1. Yes, you may tip anyone with chips.

2. Water, alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks including most beers and house wine. Depending on the casino you might even be able to get premium liquors.

3. That's BS. I have always been served a healthy portion of rum, presumably the casino would like you as drunk as possible without becoming obnoxious.

4. Long Island Iced Tea

5. No more okay or safe than in any strange city (in other words not very).

I am going to be in Vegas for first two weekends of WSOP, Fri May 29th to Sun June 7th (9 nights)

Im looking to see if anybody wants to share a room for that time period. I literally will almost never be there, except to sleep six hours a night. I grind cash games the rest of the time. Looking for something economical, especially on the weekend days. Maybe something like Ballys, Gold Coast, Harrahs, Flamingo etc

Im 31 yr old, male, online cash pro.

I think I've "bought" at least 40 watermelon juices for poker players at Bellagio in the last 3 weeks. Only one person hasn't liked it, one was ambivalent, and everyone else has loved them. Last night, the waitress refused to bring 5 for the table and only brought 4. She copped an attitude about it as well, which I totally didn't understand. I'm pretty sure she doesn't have to squeeze the watermelon herself, but maybe I'm wrong.

I certainly hope you are tipping her well. Seems to be quite the undertaking.

Question about poker room rate at Venetian. During deepstack series if you play one event does that suffice even if ya stay for three nights?

Thanks!

Nope, it will cover one night. But you should call them or ask about it in the Venetian thread in B&M. Or go to their website where they have the details.

group of 4 going to vegas end of may, we have been at Hyde before and would like to go back&get a table (possibly be joined by another 2 people) on a sunday. doesn't need to be close to the prime spot with the fountain view. anyone can point me the way to get offers?

girls have great bodies and would like to show them off, what pool is recommended? no pauly d/jersey shore crowd and buff guys with backs full of pimples due to anabolica abuse.. in other words: classy. we're staying at the palazzo.

some good fun in downtown vegas, where to go? last time I've been it was at the el cortez, was ok but there were like 20 guys/no girls at the craps table, killed the buzz a little

ferris wheel, is this any good? heard it's posh&has a bar and stuff? can anyone recommend?

best place to have winner's cigars with a buddy? I'm thinking along the lines of this http://www.barandbooks.cz/beekman/ like great athmosphere, preferably with a host cutting cigars/bringing liquor?

Thanks for the info

Which poker rooms have max buyins of $500+ at 1/2 and/or 1/3?

Also, approximate walking time from Monte Carlo to:
Aria Poker Room
Bellagio Poker Room
Venetian Poker Room
Wynn Poker Room

I know that Aria is the closest and that Wynn is the furthest. I've never stayed at Monte Carlo before. It's really hard to tell how far it is to walk between Monte Carlo and Aria.

Thanks everyone.
