Well Kids, I am planning my spring break. Since a trip to Vegas will be a little too pricey, here is my plan:
(I'm from the Dayton area in OH)
March 4th: Leave to hang out with a friend at DC
March 6th: Leave DC early in the morning, Hit Atlantic City.
I plan on staying 2 nights here, any motel advice? (or anything else to make the trip cheaper?)
March 8th: Play some more in the morning, head to my sisters house in Horseheads NY (my hometown!)
March 9th: Leave Horseheads, hit up the Casino in salamanca, stay with a friend.
March 10th: Head up to the Niagra falls area and hit the Seneca-Niagra casino. Crash for a night somewhere
March 11th: go hit one of the casinos on the canadian side, and drive through to Casino Windsor then go crash at a friends house in Northern detroit.
March 12th-13th: Take a poker break
March 14th: Hit up both Motor City and Greektown in the afternoon (probably not for long, I've played both places before) and head back to Crummy Dayton.

I'm budgeting around 600 for the trip and going to bring around 1 k with me (or make sure its in my bank account) to play B+M 5/10. Any Advice?

You should just drive to Vegas and then camp out. It will be lots cheaper and Vegas has tons of low limit games and cheap food. When you need a shower you can go to the YMCA for something like $5. Camping is cool out near the Red Rocks. Lots rock climber types and other cool people.

So cheap it's free. A couple of poker rooms have buffets for the players for free.

Food budget = $0.
Pepto budget = $50.

Total savings = $25.

I don't think you are budgeting enough to avoid a risk of going completely broke.

In AC, you can get a room rate at the Taj for $65, I believe. If you play enough per day, you can get most of your room comped on your card.

I think 5/10 is way too high for this trip, but what do I know, lol.
