The Quad Resort and Casino
The World Series of Poker begins May 27, which means it’s time for poker players to book flights and decide where they're going to live during the two-month poker grind in Las Vegas. Selecting a comfortable spot to lay your head after a grueling day of grinding is very important during the series. Whether you are looking for comfort, a summer pad with friends, or a high-class experience, many options exist on and off the Strip to accommodate your needs throughout the summer. We've put together a catalog of places to consider for the series, and you can even book your room right here at PokerNews.com!
