Every low stake tourney in Vegas will rip you off on the vig, but it isn't really the point. None of the low stake tourneys can be beat in the long run however. But he is looking for short run fun/experience. Sahara is the best bet for low stakes. Going up a little you have Harrah's, and if you run well and want to spend the money, I really reccommend Wynn $300+30. This is a tourney that can be beaten with very fair vig and has an insanely good blind structure.
