    Driving from Strip casino to Strip casino takes a lot of time due to traffic, the vast size of the parking garages, and the long walk getting from your parking spot to the playing areas. Don't forget to write down where you parked or take a picture of the nearest locator with your cell phone. It's easy to "lose" your car.

    I usually divide the Strip into 2 sections - south and mid (there's no BJ worth playing north of Mirage). One day, I'll park at MGM for the day and cover the south end by walking and taking the MB/Excalibur tram. Another day, I'll park at Caesars or PH and cover that section by walking and using the Bellagio/Aria tram.

    For your level of play, you should be mostly off-Strip at Stations, Boyds, etc.
    Usually the $5-$10 tables are full during the weekends in Station Casinos. It is better to play late at night.

    Okay, let me change the equation. I have $15K available. Given that the $10 tables may be too full, could I play DD with $25 minimum and 1-6 spread ($150 max)? If yes, where would you suggest I play? Recommendations for $25 DD places please.

    If you are willing to play DD with $25 you can almost play anywhere in Las Vegas since casinos have a habit of offering higher limits games with lower house edges. Don't get fancy and play in full tables because average player sometimes play $25 minimum tables. You can play anywhere on the Las Vegas strip where DD games are available.
