Well, I finally did it. I'm going to Vegas during my presidents break.
I have been playing cards pretty regularly for the past 5 or 6 years. I play in a live 2/5 cash games 2-4 times a week a the local card room. I have been delaying my Vegas trip for far too long. I'm a winning player live and have done pretty well this past year (over 100 sessions). I'm a teacher and lived on money made from poker over the summer. I have been talking about going to Vegas for too long. I'm finally using some of the bankroll to go.
I have a teacher planning day next Friday and I'm flying out that afternoon. Staying at the Trop Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I chose to go alone so that I didn't have to worry about entertaining friends and could maximize my time at the tables. Right now I don't even know where I want to play. The Bellagio is on my list. Other than that I'm just gonna kinda pick and choose.
I made the thread to try to get some info from people that have been, and any information they can give me about Vegas that may be useful. I grew up in NYC and frequent AC. I don't need information about live games, or casinos. More Vegas specific stuff. (I have heard that the cab drivers try to rip you off when they pick you up at the airport?). I like strip clubs and will def go if I have a winning session. Whats a good one? What about food? I dont plan on partying too hard, but again, if I have a good night I will def enjoy myself a little. My goal right now is just to pay for the trip itself.
Any tips are appreciated.
