I rented a car last year but I only used it twice. I never once felt "stuck" at the SP because there is always something going on. I will be driving up this year so I will have wheels when needed for four passengers. I wanted to play in the WSOP Sr. event that starts on the Friday before the convention but as it gets closer I can see that I will probably have to settle for a few smaller buy in tourneys not only because of the $$$ but I probably will not be able to leave work early to get there. Here is a link to Vegas Tourneys but as suggested earlier... plans just seem to get changed with so many chipper's options and plans. http://www.allvegaspoker.com/tournaments.php
