Help please...? I haven't stayed at Bally's but I know the walk isn't too bad, especially if the flat escalator out front is working. You'll get to walk by the Bellagio fountains as well
Awesome, thank you

Well I guess I'll be staying at the Flamingo ... again. I'm trying to get my friends to go with me and $120/night is just too much money for just a place you will be drunk and sleeping at.
EDIT: oh Bally's looks cheap too. And I haven't stayed there before.

What's the Chelsea like? Usually used for concerts, right? I heard it'll be fold out chairs, but who cares about that. I can't find too much info about the ballroom.

The Chelsea is amazing. Very cool, very huge, very tall ballroom.

Oh man are those hotel rates incredible. You guys have outdone yourself. Damn gradschool across the pond, if I was stateside id be here in a heartbeat.

I'm booked for the 6th and the 7th. This deal is amazing to stay in the most futuristic hotel in the world. It's definitely not 70% off, but still you can't miss this deal.

If I didn't have to pay a grand for plane tickets I would much rather stay at the Cosmo, it looks amazing!

LOL... quite the opposite. Wasn't my fav for buffets either. (At least I didn't get stuck in the 3hr line for it during thanksgiving). The nifty thing about the Wicked Spoon is that they put the individual portions in separate dishes.
Booked rooms at Aria, because I can stay there nearly free. Would have to get the Terrace room at Cosmo for the tub for the wife.
Bummed that it seems all the suites at Aria were booked already though. 
The room rates for the Cosmo are pretty darn cheap, it's usually a lot more, especially on the weekend.

Jesus fucking christ, IPL know how to put on an event. I'd fucking love to go to this. If only I had more monies 
Mad props to IGN, this is amazing.

Sorry I've been reading over this for some time and can't fine an answer and I've probably just missed it. When should I book my return flight as to not miss the finals? The ticket time says it ends at 9pm PST so I'm guessing I would need to find a flight leaving around midnight? Or probably have to stay until monday morning?

Oh yea, I know. I was being dumb. I remember the first time I stayed in Vegas, the hotel buffet was $30. Can't believed I paid it too...

It's probably a good idea to get a monday morning flight. We're aiming to be done around then, but you never know, it really depends on how long it takes to play out. Either get a midnight or early am redeye or get a monday flight.

Holy. Shit.
IPL, what? How did you possibly organize something as cool and awesome as this?!?!? how?!?!?!?!?! You are doing amazing things for the esports community, helping to make it more legitimate than ever before. Wow...just...wow.
*off to look for plane tickets*

I've stayed at Bally's like 75% of the time that I've gone to Vegas. It's really nice; rooms are clean, location is amazing. It's totally worth it.

Better off Monday morning sometime. I remember at IPL3, two guys had bus tickets to NY, but the show ran a little long so had to miss the final match. Stay until Monday and you won't miss anything. You can always check out Sunday and check your bags with the hotel, then power through the night at the airport if money is a problem.

Bally's is super cheap for a strip hotel, but if you can swing it, you really should spend the extra and stay at Cosmo. First to support IPL4, and second, because you'll likey see players and casts gambling, drinking, and just walking around. I hope nobody is a dick when I walk up and say "hi"
