Truth. If you're taking more than 10k, wire it. No sense taking a chance on getting robbed, arrested, bankroll confiscated, etc...

I know times have changed, but I really doubt arriving at the vegas airport with $20k in cash would be considered suspicious. If you aren't comfortable taking the cash for whatever reason wiring it is really the only other sensible way to go.

you can not carry more the 10k on a plane usually. also if you keep that much in your pocket and dont "show it" it will set off the metal detectors [thus the magnetic strip in the bills now]
My sugestion, bring a check book and take a marker.

I may be mistaken, but I believe that is only when one is leaving the country, not traveling within it.

The 10k law actually refers to ENTERING the United States I believe (may be leaving it also, not sure). Also, carrying that much cash into the US isn't illegal...it just must be declared.
