Think I am going to end up at Golden Nugget.  Can't beat Fremont Street for entertainment!

Went to school a few hours from Vegas and have stayed in pretty much every seedy, shitty, cheap hotel on or around the strip and downtown.  Circus Circus isn't (wasn't) the worst, but it's close!  Not a big fan of Luxor either.  I would probably stay away from New York, New York and Treasure Island too.  I'd rather stay somewhere like Casino Royale honestly if price is the biggest factor.  Great location and cheap drinks/games for after you've lost all your dough :D  I'm sure a bunch of the other ones we used to book aren't even around anymore. 

Last time I went we got a ridiculous deal on a pair on suites in the MGM Signature towers, which were great.  Not the closest to center strip, but super nice rooms for the price.  Mirage is a pretty decent mid/low tier hotel too and great for poker (at least last time I went).  Stayed at the Wynn once and Cosmopolitan once and a few times at Bellagio as well, and you really can't go wrong with the top tier places if you don't mind spending a bit more.  If you're going with family, splurge on the room, but if you're going alone or with the guys I would spend as little as possible on the room since you really don't end up spending much time in it anyway.

Downtown is a lot of fun and a great deal usually, but having to shuttle back to your room drunk in the middle of the night from the strip can suck.

The cool thing at SGIA Vegas was.....

M&R new I-image with the led lights that go on when frame is square to tri loc position!  Pretty cool!  Also, there is a new tri-loc that also has led lights that come on when you have the corners of the screen pulled in correctly.  Just another way to make the system idiot proof.

Hopefully you overheard something in conversation one of those times you came by because I spent most of my time talking to people and it was fabulous. People really wanted information at their show as they weren't necessary there to buy, they wanted the information on the products so they could make better purchasing choices.

I also heard, SGIA is back to ATLANTA next year, that New Orleans and Orlando are out until further notice!  Not sure if its true, and I DONT LIKE IT, but that's what I heard.
