I have an upcoming visit to Las Vegas (arrive late Thursday, depart early Sunday) and expect to just play on two days or about 24 hours total. Is that reasonable? Second question is if I plan to pay $10 minimum, $100 max bet, how much $$$ should I take with me on the plane? 5K, 10K or 15K? Just want to make sure I do not go broke before the trip is over. Given that its Friday and Saturday and $10 min tables may be hard to find, should I play the $25 minimum tables? If $25 minimum tables, my max bet would be about $150 so 6 Deck is out, just DD. In this case, how much BR should I take with me?

Recommendations on where I could stay where I have easy access to games without driving from one casino to another? Downtown or the strip? I have offers via Ameristar for discounted rooms at various strip properties (Excalibur, Luxor to a bit higher).

Advice appreciated.
