Hey there, gonna be going to Vegas for the first time ever this week and taking my GF, we are gonna stay 2 months. I wanted to ask you guys about some smallstakes dailys she can play for fun every now and then, up to like $60 or something... She is very inexperienced but she's smart and knows a little more than just basic ABC strat, so she will definitely beat your average Vegas-tourist.
Whats the best she can go for in terms of structure, softness, ok-ish field size, etc?
Thanks!

Install the Poker Atlas app and use LV as your “location”. The various daily ($40-$120), tournaments are noted there. It’s pretty convenient

The Mirage is probably one of the better structures for lower buy-in (<$100) tournaments (check which times are lower buy ins though, some are higher). If she doesn't really play poker that much, she probably won't mind Excalibur -- horrible structures for someone who is a regular player, but recreational players don't seem to mind that much... and it's cheap ($45?) and it runs like 4 times a day, and the players are nice. Also, Bally's, I think some of those are $60, again, not great structure, but they get 2 to 3 tables. Planet Hollywood $80, I think 4 times per day. Harrah's has some on the cheaper side. Hope that helps.

Stratosphere? Supposedly the old Sahara tournament, which had a very good structure, moved over there.

Also, Sam's Town has dailies from $25 to $60.
