Anyone out there have any suggestions about best places to play some small NL games in Vegas. Im thinking up to about a $500 max buy in table. I know all the poker rooms should be pretty full with the WSOP going on but just curious.
thanks guys.

I just got back from Las Vegas. The best place for me was Mandalay Bay. I just liked the set-up, there's a HUGE sports book in the same room as the poker room so you can watch whatever they have on while you play. The poker room was pretty full and at 6pm on a Thursday they had two NL tables going with a waiting list.
Stopped by MGM Grand on my way out...they had a nice poker room as well, was hopping on a Sunday morning/afternoon.
Stayed at the Tropicana. Only time there was anything besides 2/4 was late at night. The game was *really* loose, though, so I was able to play super tight and take down a few big pots.
