    Good sportsbook and poker room
    The Linq, Harrah's, Monte Carlo all fit your bill. Usually moderately priced, close enough to Bellagio, Caesars Palace, Venetian and Aria. All those places have good books and you have your variety of CG, MGM/Mirage, and Caesars lines to compare. Use www.vegasinsider.com click on the sport you want and click the Vegas Odds tab. You'd be surprised that even for the NFL Playoffs and the NCAAF Championship they were hanging different spreads and ML's for each book.

    As far as poker goes, I heard the Linq renovated their poker room, but it is still small. You can hit that or Planet Hollywood to beat up the donkey tourists. Or, if you are looking bigger/better, you have Aria, Bellagio, Caesars, and Venetian right there. I stayed at Aria last weekend and the poker room looked full every time I passed it.

    Have fun

      I drove by that Harbor Island shit hole that he stays at and I laughed my ass off thinking of Jay Vegas That neighborhood is so fukkin' sketchy. Zero chance you feel safe there. Then, a block or so later, I pass the Silver Sevens. I was laughing so hard, I almost had to park.

                POV horror movie type shit. No wonder Jay Vegas has to go to Ross for shoes in Vegas. Guey runs through them quick, literally!.

                Jay, check in, guy.

                  Yeah Linq isn't bad either. Rooms are kinda small but that isn't an issue since you won't be in there much. And you can't beat the location.

                        Linq, Flamingo, Ballys...... all across from Caesars Palace, middle of strip, moderately priced --- Linq and Ballys rooms have been recently remodeled, and Ballys are pretty decent size for the price.

                          I would stay at the best when in Vegas. Why settle for a roach motel?

                            Mid range on strip....Paris, TI, Mirage and Monte Carlo.

                            If you are looking for a place where you can get a dinner worth $3 for $5 with a coupon ask Fishead. Guy is the king of useless bargains and made up slot jackpots.

                                Maybe stay with JJ in his van down by the river. I'd bet you would save some.

                                      Have stayed at Treasure Island and Excalibur. Both are fine for mid-range value.

                                      Golden Nugget downtown was great too.

                                            OP has no idea what "middle of the road " is.

                                            Somewhere between Budget Suites of America & The Encore.

                                            A lot of good information in this thread.

                                            Always buy your socks at Ross +ev.

                                            Places like Wild Wild West or The D would be my definition of middle of the road.

                                              Jay, most people don't want to step over homeless heroin addicts while walking around down town Vegas. You have the scum of the Earth down town. Golden Nugget right next to the fukkin' jail

                                                Rio is not bad, but I hate you cant walk onto the strip. I prefer TI as you can walk to a nicer place if you want or there's some low budget places if you want to go play $5 BJ (Casino Royale).

                                                My my wife also likes their Asian Food room service.

                                                    Somewhere between Budget Suites of America & The Encore.

                                                    A lot of good information in this thread.

                                                    Always buy your socks at Ross +ev.

                                                    Places like Wild Wild West or The D would be my definition of middle of the road.
                                                    I know what middle of the road , but thanks anyway

                                                      rookie day at SBR

                                                      Rio has shuttles right in front of place to take you to strip with no hassle
                                                      but what about the hassle getting back?

                                                      so much easier to walk to and from your room.

                                                        Stardust, Riviera, Westward HO, Paddle Wheel, Sahara, or Sands, Frontier were all OK when I lived there. Not sure what shape they are in now. Desert Inn nice high class joint.

                                                          I forgot to mention see Frank Sinatra at the DI if he is in town. He might be sick. Not sure about old Blue Eyes.
