    Default Help with Vegas low stakes games

    Hey guys. Wondering if any locals can help me out. In coming to America (from Australia) for my first trip and will be stopping in Vegas for 4 days.
    I'm going to get a couple of solid poker sessions in and have a few questions ;

    1. Are there any etiquette things I should be aware of? For example, or dealers don't get tips routinely, almost never at lower stakes (that get paid better per hour here) - would I need to tip after every hand there or only big pots?

    2. Where should I look for good games at lower stakes NL?

    3. What sort of play can I expect at these limits and any advice to crush the game? Typical games at my casino have a lot of loose players that call almost any raise preflop and don't fold very often of they have any draw, even with incorrect odds.

    Any advice greatly appreciated!

    1. $1 per pot won, $2 for really big pot
    2. anywhere, there are no good $1-$3 players. Wynn/Aria/Venetian/Planet Hollywood are good bets
    3. bad, but the local regs are nitty, look for the tourist games.

    all of this is based on exactly 1 trip to Vegas during the WSOP, and a bit of info garnered from friends. your experience might be different.
    Playing big pots at small stakes.

    Ok great, thanks for the tips.
    I'll be staying at the Belagio for the trip so may start with the 1/3 games there. Hopefully lots of tourists!
