Default rooming in Vegas

Which poker rate would you pick up out of Wynn, Mirage, Bellagio?

Mirage is cheapest buy isn't Wynn really nice? Worth it?

Also, I'm assuming you don't have problems finding a game at Wynn?

Where is the softest 8/16 - 15/30?

What does it take to get comped a free room? $100 Blackjack?

Mirage is cheaper than the other two but better check with how much they want you to play, I think they want 8 hours or so on weekends. Mirage doesn't have $8-16, only $6-12 and $10-20 and up.

Wynn is nice but a bit out of the way. Mirage and Bellagio are closer to rooms like the Aladdin and MGM(which has $8-16).

One of the best poker rates can be found at Monte Carlo however, they only spead games as high as $4-8. But they only require five hours a day, which means you can play elsewhere.

I also find that Mandalay has a good rate, great place to stay and only 5 hours / day.

I have been there several times where the largest game was 4/8 with .5 kill. Is this typical? What mid-level games (6/12-15/30) do they play regularly there?

Aren't Monte Carlo and Mandalay 3-star hotels? (A notch below Mirage/2 below Wynn/Bellagio)

I hadn't heard of Monte Carlo and Mandalay's poker rates. What are they?

Although, if their highest games are 4/8 I probably wouldn't book.

According to TravelAxe, Mandalay, Mirage, and Monte Carlo are all 4 stars.

Mandalay Bay is nicer than Mirage. Haven't been to the Wynn, but of the others I would rank Mandalay 3rd in Vegas behind Venetian and Bellagio (not much behind Bellagio). I would guess the Wynn may be nicer as well, but as I said I haven't been inside yet. With that being said, the Mirage is cheaper than Mandalay and the poker room at the Mirage is much better.

Are the games soft at Mirage? How would you rank the 8/16, 10/20, 15/30 games among all the vegas rooms?

6 hours/day at the Wynn gets you $129/night during the week, $199 on the weekends.

Completely worth it. Stay there.

I was just at the Wynn. IMO the poker room sucked. It was new and nice, but the games were bad. At 11am on Saturday morning, they didn't even have enough people for a 15/30 game.

The Bellagio is the nicest and the 15 games there were super good. I, being poor, would stay at the Mirage. I haven't played there in a while, but I assume that the games are good, or at least better than at the Wynn. If not, I'd just make my way to Bellagio to play. Playing aat Bellagio and staying at Mirage is probably still cheaper than the poker rate at Bellagio.
