Does this sound reasonable? If I stay around the Flamingo and LV boulevard corner AND want to play at Mlife facility, where can I play craps for $5?
You play similar to me then.

Yeah I'd go $250 like you said. Or do $150 morning and $350 night time. Then when you finish the morning hit the pool. That gives a bit extra for evenings when table limits go up.

The only place I know you'll consistently find $5 mlife craps is Excalibur. I played $5 at NYNY once.

Excalibur usually has $5 tables. Check all 4. Sometimes they hide the $5. On really busy nights they might only have $10, then I'd suggest NYNY. Better drink service.

However the dealers at Excalibur are usually friendly and great to new players and low rollers.

Around 1 am Excalibur will sometimes bump tables to $10. Sometimes they'll grandfather you in at $5. Sometimes not.

Make sure you give them your players card for tracking comps.

Personally I'd stick with $5. When I get up, I like to add come bets or place 6/8 more instead of a higher limit. But you can often find $10 at most of mlife if you want a nicer casino and better drinks.
