I just want to express my agreement regarding the Excalibur. It's the best place in town for beginning brick and mortar players to get their feet wet. The 1-3 game is very soft. Another place with a soft 2-4 game is the Imperial Palace. The IP also offers very good comps ($3 per hour), and free sandwiches and cookies [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
If you want to get some live tournament action in, then you may want to check out the Orleans, Mandalay Bay, and Luxor -- All of which have popular, and relatively inexpensive tournament action. Unfortunately, the excalibur does not offer any tournaments.
For pictures and more information on each of those card rooms, you may want to check out my website --

Good luck! Enjoy your trip. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
