Subject: going to vegas in Dec. for first time ever...

I have dumb questions:
1) what is weather like? any special gear needed?
2) do people "dress up"? or is it as casual as the rest of America? (Somehow
I don't think TV show Las Vegas is quite realistic... I mean is it a law for
women to show so much cleavage???)
3) How tiny do the stakes go? I could do 1/2 without major coronary events...
and where might tiny stakes be had? I only have one hour of playing live under
my belt so far... I would enter tourneys up to $50 as well... preferably
smaller, lol.
4) Where would I go to WATCH big stakes exciting games, the kind I know I could
never play???
5) Best guidebook???
6) any other advice about what to do, where to play, what to see, what to be
sure NOT to miss... most appreciated...
Thank you.

Gets a might chilly in December...it IS in the desert.
Go to Bellagio for the big games. Earlier this year, I saw Gus and
Harman playing 4,000-8,000 blinds.
For cheaper fun, go downtown. Cheap stakes, and a casino has - or used
to have - a game where you can play tic-tac-toe against the chicken.
Casino Royale - next to the Venetian on the Strip - also has some nice
cheap fun.

To give you an idea, it was in the 70's all last week here, but is 53 today.
Sweater and jacket for sure.

I happen to be a big fan of cleavage, but watching "Las Vegas" on TV is not
a true representation of any of the card rooms I've ever played in. Maybe
in the big clubs like "Light" or others in that "trendy scene", but usually
not in the casinos or card rooms.

Unfortunately 1-2 NL and 3-5 NL have basically taken over the landscape, but
there still are plenty of 3-6, 4-8 limit games and a few 1-4-8 and 1-4-8-8
games. There are MANY tourneys under $50 (see my answer under guidebook
question)
>

> could
> never play???
Bellagio "Bobby's Room" usually has the highest stakes games in town. There
are some games at the Wynn, Mirage, and once in a while Red Rock.
> 5) Best guidebook???
If you're here for a POKER trip, nothing beats http://www.allvegaspoker.com
. I live here and I consult it before going out. They have all of the
current info on all of the rooms, games, limits and tourneys in Vegas.

A lot of that depends on your bankroll, your time in town, and what you like
to do AWAY from the poker tables.

You're quite welcome.

Anyone who thinks Americans are obsessed with how they look has never
been to Vegas. You'll see cleavage you wish you hadn't seen.

2/4 is the smallest I've seen.
Try the Orleans for perhaps the best structured tourneys.

I didn't play there, but when I passed by the TI poker room I saw a 1/2
LHE game going. I think the Excalibur might still have a 1/2 game (and a
1/2 NL game also).

People dress every which way. Dress how you want. Cleavage is
appreciated, but not necessary.

$1/$2 LHE may be hard to find. I've played as low as $2/$4. Check
allvegaspoker.com.

Kadie:
I frequently wear a suit coat when in Vegas. I find I get more respect when I
do. Must people are very casual, however, except at the night clubs.
Yes, cleavage is mandatory. Don't leave home without it.
And where are you from?
May you NEVER "seven-out," ...*guy...

Guy--
Thanks for the advice. If cleavage is mandatory then I see that I will need to
get an emergency boob transfusion. Hmm...

Naw, don't worry about it. Just do what I do. Squeeze your arms together, as if
you're cold, then lean over the table. Voila, instant cleavage.

Weather is nice, although it can be a little chilly. I was there just
before New Year's last year, and it was pleasant, as I recall. Crowded.
Check weather.com before you go.

$1/2 can be found, I think, but not many places. $2/4 is much more
prevalent. Check out www.allvegaspoker.com for answers to a lot, if not
all, of your questions. It's a great site.

How many people are coming to town with you. There is a karaoke place that
has "booths" they rent out for parties of four or more to have karaoke
parties. Very cool. I'll find the name of it and the location if you're

"Stu Ungar Fan"
gave very good advice.
For rooms, vegas.com
For really good general advice, cheapovegas.com
Some general blog information, lasvegasvegas.com
(There is a list, usually, of all the upcoming tournaments.)
My wife Dianne and I will be in vegas from the 14th through the 20th ...
play mostly at the Venetian. She has a giant pile of red hair. (And she is
really pretty!) As for the "pickles" and you are likely to find us if we
are there. ($3 an hour for comps ... you cannot beat it!) There are a
million tournaments that you would enjoy. Almost everywhere and almost all
the time. Good luck and have a blast.

What, and take Snoopy's job?
I know what you are saying about Stu, but, those things didn't "bring him
down"...they were him. If you could separate the compulsive side of him,
I doubt he would have been as good as he was at the other things.
