    Heading to Vegas for Conference Tournaments

    Staying at the Monte Carlo 9th thru the 13th. Anyone else going to be in town? Can't be as crowded as "THE" tournament but where should we head for the games?

    I don't post too often but read through the forum daily. Thanks for the entertainment, the insight, and the picks. Whether you tail or fade there is so much great info here.

    Cheers gentlemen (and ladies)

    I tend to do better in the conference tournaments anyway.

    Should be a great time!

    Twin Peaks on the strip is great atmosphere for you and the boys for the mid-day games, assuming you get your bets in ahead of time. All the sportsbooks are good, you can probably find a spot to watch in the bigger books but get there early.

    Outside of the dedicated viewing parties for opening round of the big dance, I like to place all my bets then watch the games at the bar and get silly

    Try to switch hotels if you can. The Monte Carlo looks awesome on paper. but sucks when you get there.. Kinda like the Miami Dolphins..

    Monte Carlos not bad. Yeah, if I had a choice where I'd stay, I'd give my cash to that leach Addleson. But I can also sit in that ass holes Sportsbook for free.

    If you wanna drink a lot, on the casino, stay at Monte Carlo. Minimum bets for drink tickets are much lower.
    If money's no object head to the Wynn or MGM and buy all your drinks.

    If you don't drink head to the LVH Superbook.

    The Excalibur Sportsbook is my favourite book.

    If you can get tickets for the tournament held at the Orleans that's supposed to be a nice place to stay.

    No pics...you're trip never happened.

    Lol. Not walking but I'm pumped up. It's been about 3 years so I'm planning ahead.

    Thanks for the advice here. From Monte I'll be able to walk over to Excaliber. I like the sports bar they have at Monte too. Late night I'll end up on the North end of the strip.

    Probably hit up Twin Peaks during the day... how's the talent? Is it like Hooters up north where the ass ends up being better than the chest or are these chicks legit?

    My buddy has a connection at XS too. Is that the best club these days?

    Hmmm. I'm checking out options at Aria. You guys got me thinking.

    JJ is right about one thing. I won't be in the room too much. But I'm taking my brother who's never been. So, I want to do it right. No more college days with 4 guys staying in one room. A suite sounds goooooood.
