It was a bit strange that even on Saturday night, Fremont Street wasn't that crowded at all. Binion's used to have 6 poker tournaments per day..now they only have 4. Plaza cancelled their 1-2 table tournaments, as only a few people signed up. Business seemed way down, in general.

Aria was VERY nice, and their line-up of retail stores was comparable to Rodeo Drive.
Aria casino seemed pretty crowded..very nice poker room, and their daily tournaments were only a $120 buy-in..whereas the Venetian and Bellagio are around $350 - $550 buy-ins..
