I've been attempting to plan a trip somewhere and was honestly going to post an idea basically I want to go do all this stuff but I never go through with it

depending on the price range it would be I may very well do this otherwise I wouldn't mind a trip to vegas if anyone did want to meet up there

The casino is in the Ricoh Arena sports stadium complex and there is a hotel within the complex -

http://www.ricoharena.com/experiences-at-the-ricoh/de-vere-hotel/

which is obviously very convenient, though maybe not the cheapest. You could also try looking at other hotels in the CV6 postcode area. Google lists several.

The casino is a taxi ride away from Birmingham International Airport, from where there are direct flights to New York and to Orlando. You would have to take an internal flight from an airport nearer you to connect.

There was an American player sitting next to me last year. And why not ? The prize pool in the Main Event is enough that a final table finish would give you a tasty profit, even taking out the cost of a trip from the States.

Prepare yourself for a lot of expense - England is not cheap! Flights are probably at least $1200 right now. You will lose money when you transfer from the USD to GBP. Then expect everything to cost about 1.5 times what it does here. :)

You forgot pubs/beer, Debi.

My local pub was serving beer when everyone in your locality lived in a wigwam. :)
