I'm flying out to California Wednesday May 21st to visit my parents. We're driving to Vegas Thursday night to surprise my older sister on her birthday. I'll be in Vegas all day Friday and Saturday before leaving Sunday morning. I was wondering if it's possible to get within 2 miles of Binion's on the last day of the WSOP. Can you just walk in and watch?

I've had very limited experience playing Holdem in B&M casinos. I wanted to sit down for a few hours while I'm there and see how I do (95% of my experience is online). I'm comfortable playing limit Holdem anywhere up to 5-10. Could anyone give me any advise on which rooms have the best games, lowest rakes, etc.

I've also heard that the 30-60 at the Bellagio is a favrorite among pros. Will they let you go in and watch? Will the local pros mind me hanging around watching them play as long as I keep my mouth shut?

I'll probably be wearing Blue Jeans, a t-shirt or a long sleeve grey shirt (depending on how hot it is), and a very worn Aeropostale cap. Feel free to say hi.

You can go into any poker room and watch as long as you want? Somebody may ask you not to stand directly behind them. If so, just move. But, it's unlikely you'll be asked.

The best rooms for low-limt hold'em on the Strip are the Monte Carlo and Mandalay Bay. They are both small rooms which cater to low-limit players.
