    You gotta have at least 1k to do a little bit of damage with. At least 1k... Better to bring 5k plus though.

    agree, after airfare and hotel + setting aside $750 to $1k for food/entertainment... if you don't have at least $3k for gambling, seems almost pointless to make the trip out to Vegas so IMO you need about $5k total for everything...airfare, hotel, food, entertainmnet, gambling, etc.

    I'd put a little futures play on the Brewers.

    Stay away from all machines! With a limited bankroll you'll get nickel & dimed to death!

    Commit to a $5 BJ table........look around......you'll find them. Allow yourself a few hundred at one sitting.......don't bail too early. If you have any luck allow yourself a few hundred at a Craps table (where you have the chance to increase your bankroll much faster), but not until you've increased your bankroll.

    Good luck.

    With such a small bankroll, don't place any futures bets until right before you're ready to leave. As far as the best way to build that roll, really depends on what you're good or most confident playing. BOL!

    good luck

    they can't wait until you get there. you have no plan and little backing. you will get chewed to threads. limit your losses to 200.00 a day. eat at in and out burger. go to locals joints. observe. stay away from strip clubs. go sightseeing. area 51, cal-nev-ari nice town if you can find it. nipton ca. also a garden spot. hoover dam a must see. drive to laughlin take the desert shortcut.

    where is a good place to stay? I'm on a similar budget as the guy above. Around $500-$600 for my flight/3 days in hotel is what I'd like to spend

    get the cheapest worst hotel you can find off the strip... walk about a mile, but you don't have the backing to stay in the resorts. You will barely see your room anyway. It is basically a place to put your luggage while you get tanked and try to win the lottery with a 600 dollar roll. I suggest you bring at least 1k to gamble with, but even that is small timing it in vegas.

    If all I had to gamble was $600, I would stay home or go to a local casino.

    it can be done for sure. You just have to get hot quickly. I would make 2 separate sports bets for 300 each and hope to win both.
