My trip is booked and I'll be spending 4 days in Vegas in a few months.

I've limited live playing experience but years of online in both tourney and cash. I prefer tourney's myself.

Where do you recommend a non-high roller like myself play while I'm there?

Thanks.

Download the Poker Atlas App. It has all of the daily tournament info. There are dozens to choose from every day. Buy-ins range from $40 to several hundred dollars.

I won a tournament at Treasure Island last December - my first trip to Vegas. It was a $55 buy-in, I believe. So it was nothing major, but I can tell my friends I won a poker tournament in Vegas.

I'm going again next month and plan to move up to some $100-$125 buyins.

Good luck!

Thanks for the app advice
I've used the site before and downloaded the app. I really like their website but I think they did a poor job of trying to translate it into an app. App layout gets all glitchy the moment I scroll anywhere.
Would be better off just using their website imo.

I've been checking around and most of the rooms and games seem very similar in both tournament and cash games. From a structure standpoint anyway.

If anyone has a recommendation on room comfort, service, etc... then I'd love to hear it. I'll be staying at the Aria which seems to have a decent poker room from the reviews.

The 1pm and 7pm Aria tournaments are my favorites.

I'd like to say that's great but I'm not sure I want you at the same tournament as me. I'd rather have people that can't play.
:adore:
