If you want a mix of small and high steaks...

your only bets I would bet are

bellagion 4/8 8/16 10/20 and above
mirage 3/6 6/12 8/16 10/20 and above
wynn... not sure if it is 3/6 or 4/8 but those and above

you really won't find a room with 1/2.. and anything higher.. although luxor does have hold'em lessons during the day .. at like 1pm or something and after that they spread a 1/2 game till the people leave... or at least they used to..

As far as night life....

drinking at the barbary coast.. althought it looks dumpy is in my opinion the best place to drink.... they also have one of the best night clubs in dreis... the food in the back is quite good at 3 am too... mostly a locals casino so the people are more friendly and less bitchy...

hard rock has a lot of hot chicks... and their club i forgot what it is called is nice.... has a california feel though... if you like that sort of thing... (so does palms)

palms also has a lot of hot chicks....

bellagio and wynn are up tight... I wouldn't go there.. but the poker at bellagio can be some of the best at times... lots of loose rich california kids that have FPS and raise like crazy with nothing.... you can really take that 4/8 game there for 7-800 on a good night.... but you can also get creamed if the cards don't fall rihgt.

mandaly bay has a very nice circular bar in the middle of the casino somewhere.... lots of nice women.. an awful cheesy vegas band..... nice to sit and relax there... but the later the better there.. at 10pm it will be a ghost town.

I would stay away from luxor, excalibur, flamingo, stardust, circus circus, stratosphere....

rio isn't bad and is by the palms... but the minimums on tables are quite outrageous there lately... I haven't been in the poker room there since it opened but I heard they moved it out of the sports book and is better than it used to be....
