We drove ut from LA for a fun vacation and to visit with a friend who was in for a conference. We played often at the Planet Hollywood poker room and spent some other time wandering Vegas and stopped by to check out Bellagio which seemed big and busy and snobish. Then we went to visit the poker room at Mandalay Bay and it was small and they had some cheap buy in events but for 600 chips (h%#@ no) that is not playing poker that is straight gambling. Anyway we found that PH had the best bang for the buck with 4000 chips and 60 bucks and about 5 tables of decent players.
