I'm heading out to Vegas and 70% of my gaming will be at the poker tables. How would you rate the top 5 Vegas poker rooms and are there any solid tourneys you'd recommend?

The Bellagio is number one, then The Mirage and then The Horseshoe (although, I love The Horseshoe the most myself!). The Bellagio is for high stakes games mostly... The Mirage is for medium and the Horseshoe could have some great games with great action if you're staying downtown! Check them out using the links below:

Do poker professionals really play online at UltimateBet?

Absolutely! You'll find many top professionals playing at the real money tables at UB.

Should pot odds determine playing or folding blind hands. It has been getting me in trouble lately.

No! Forget the pot odds! This concept of pot odds forgets to mention that you can lose a ton of money when you 'hit' your weak hands, especially if you aren't a seasoned pro that can fold the hand when you hit it halfway.

I have had pretty good success in tournaments by simply not getting involved much in the early rounds. Try to get ahead and then play extremely tight. Do you agree with this stratagy?

Absolutely! Playing conservatively early keeps you 'in the game' until you can get some good situations to put your money into. Keep using this strategy, but remember that you need to make some moves later in the tournament (not too many moves, just some).
