Are we talking limit or no limit? The $200NL game at the MGM Grand has paid for my last two trips out, and then some. (Here's hoping that trend continues next week...)

As far as limit goes, I'd play at the Bellagio, mainly because you get a lot of newbies heading there for the star factor, but they're not willing to play the NL game there. ($500 buyin)

There are fish everywhere...but the newer rooms seem to attract them the most - I think it's because of the hip factor that the casinos have built into the rooms. It really attracts the WPT wannabe crowd.

Most of my Vegas poker stories are on my blog, but I'd say the highlight was partying with and then playing with Phil Gordon when I was out in May. I bet I find some way to top it on the next trip though.
