Atlantic City Newb Questions

[Salerosa]

I have to drive up to Monmouth County on Thursday for a court date, and as my next exam is not going to be till the end of next week I was thinking of staying in Atlantic City Thursday and Fri nights.

What casinos should I be looking at for NL Hold' Em games (I do not play limit)? With the BR I'll have on me I'll probably be looking for 1/2 and 2/5 games. Also, where should I look at staying as far being a nice mix of being not-too-sketchy of a place(hey I'm in college my standards for living arent that high yet), near stuff to do, and some what economic?

Any other pointers you can give me about AC in general or casino/hotel staying (I just turned 21 last weekend) are also greatly appreciated.

BTW I used the search; it sucks.
