Macau or Vegas?

So, simple question.

Looking at headed to either of the two places for about 10 days in February with a group of us just for poker.

Aside from cost of flights and rooms (Cos macau wins in that department for Aussies), where would you rather go for poker?

We're talking $2/$5 and $5/$10 stakes (Not sure what the closest stakes are in HKD for Macau, but you get the idea), as well as tournaments and sit n go's etc etc.


Where would you rather play and stay, and why?

Surely someone here has played both places

vegas of course for his nightlife...and for people

undoubtedly the two reach the cities where poker is playing gods , the game you are more fond represented by these beautiful cities , one Asian and one American , 2 are certainly symbols of poker and casino

I have not played in Macau, but do remember reading some pretty high minimums on standard casino games much higher than the Vegas minimums and all I have heard about the poker seen there is the high limit games so I just get the impression that Macau is a pretty expensive place. I have not been to anywhere in Asia since the 88 Olympics but if I were planning a trip it would be Macau to check it out but I am from the USA so I can hit Vegas any time. If I were going just to play poker I would be headed to Vegas just to keep concentration and avoid culture shock. I will be keeping an eye on this thread because I would love to hear from someone who has been to Macau for poker. Good Luck.
