So I turn 21 tomorrow, I'm heading to vegas on Friday. No, I'm not looking for advice on how to play live and win, I'm not vacationing to make money, I'm going to have a good time. I'm sure I will probably sit at a table or two, but I'm going to have fun...
So, what are your favorite things to do, or places to go in vegas? If I do want to do some playing, where should I go to have the most fun? I have never sat at a card table at the casino btw...

Go to the Hardrock casino pool ( called "rehab") on Sunday, get there at 11 am and line up, you will not regret it.
To say your going to vegas is not enough, you need to specify Downtown, the strip or off strip. There is so much you don't want to spend tons of time traveling back and forth.

pai gow poker is the best way to get drunk. I reccomend double crown on the rocks. planet holleywood has tables with girls in bustier's. In the morning I get coffee and kahlua. The big casinos are fun to walk around. If you're BOB the smaller casinos have lower limit tables.
I enjoy walking, leave some time to walk the strip. No open container, so you can stop in 7-11, buy a 22oz beer, pop it outside and continue to the next destination.
If you're playing poker, you might find better action at the tiny joints, but the "best" rooms are Venetian, Caesar's (although were tougher the one time I entered), Balley's, Mandalay Bay (bottom of strip).
Go to Denny's by Casino Royale (just south of Venetian). Buy $1 Micelobe from Casino Royale.

The one night I played poker in Vegas, I had been drinking down 6-pack buckets of Sierra Nevada for $15 during Happy Hour at LeGasse's stadium... then stumbled back and had one of the more hilarious sessions of poker in my life. Drank a Red Bull and Vodka every time the waitress came around. Up four hundo, and had the whole table straddling, only I convinced them to call it a "saddle" and I would tip them a dollar. I highly suggest repeating this adventure.
Agree with Swig about walking, check out times for the massive hotel shows... The Bellagio is obvious but several other places do similar things. White Russians at the Venetian were awesome.

11am? Are you crazy? He won't get in until like 4pm.
If you're going to go to Rehab and aren't going to ball it out by getting a cabana (3k minimum), then you need to get there *much* earlier than that. Like 8am probably to wait in line. Unless, of course, you're a hot girl. In which case, get there whenever, they'll let you in.
