I'll be leaving in a few days (Monday the 26th) for a week (five days and four nights) in Las Vegas. I plan to play as much as possible. I'm just not sure how much that will actually be. I am traveling this time with my wife, her parents, and possibly, her brother. I'd like to play six to eight hours each day; and I'd like to spread the schedule around and play some late nights, early mornings, mid mornings, early afternoons, and evenings, at least until I figure out what times work best for me. I also plan to move around a good bit, hitting the best of the places I have played before, along with trying out several other casinos that I have not yet sampled. Again, I may narrow that a bit after I find the ones that are working for me.
I'd love to hear any advice anyone has on specific attractions (gambling or not), food, casinos, games, etc. I have been to Vegas twice before; which makes me still pretty much a newbie.
My loose plans so far are to devote a day to playing downtown and a day to playing the low-limit and/or good rules spots on the strip. We're staying at Sam's Town on the Boulder Strip, so I'll be playing a decent amount there and/or at Arizona Charlie's. If any of the above work really well early, I'll end up focussing on that later in the trip.
I am mostly interested in single-deck and double-deck games. I'd prefer to play 3:2 with decent rules, but will play SuperFun21 instead of a shoe game or a 6:5 regular game. Other than the blackjack payout, the most important rules to me are late surrender, double after split, and stand on all 17s, in that order. I don't want to play shoe games unless they have very good rules or very low limits.
Again, any help would be appreciated. And of course, when I return, I'll give the full report.
