No regular (low buy-in) single table tourneys that I know of. There are single table satellites to the bigger weekly tourneys though.

I hope a)you have plans other than just poker or b)you are not only good but damn lucky too.

If a, b or both isn't true you might have problems with a $100 bank roll. I don't think I would bother going if I couldn't bring more than that. Not trying to be a dick here just want you to understand you are way under funded.

Here's a tip from a dealer:
save your 100 bucks, make it look like about 1k before you decide to go on a poker excursion to Vegas. And no, there are no SnG's here in town.

My BR in May will be about $1,000.00 what games should I play? I usually play the $200 NL or the 2-6 at the Excalibur.

Is that a good enough BR for my trip?

If that is a poker bankroll only, then yes, low buy in NL games would be pretty good to stick with. Just dont get crazy and go for the 500 max buy in 2/5 games and higher.

look, if i wanted more bankroll advice i would haev asked for it...
i have a job
i play for fun
so im not "underfunded"...i just found a few casinos that will give me two SNG games for $100 which equates to a pretty good time to me

what would you suggest? i go with $1000 and play 20 SNG's in a row for 50 hours straight so i can avoid the expected variance? lighten up a bit, its just a question

Lately just the 1/1 $40 NL game. I used to play the 2/3 $200 game but the game just isn't very good anymore and I don't have the Bankroll for the 5/5 $500 table (that is one big game).

My favorite game is the 2/3 NL at Pechanga, that game ROCKS!

the 1/1$ NL game is at Ocean's 11, its a cash game with a max buy in of $40, its a very juicy game, ive played it a few times... I gotta go try out that 2/3 NL at pechanga, only played 2/4 last time i was there and it was pretty juicy as well
