I have a 2 night reservation at the Mirage two weeks from Thursday and still not open and no way to contact them. I tweeted a private message to them but no reply. Half ...!

I just read on this Vegas FB group that I belong to that for sure it is not opening until July 16. Mirage and Park MGM. Take that for what it's worth...random person on the internet but she said she spoke to her host. I think Paris will be open so they might try to send you there. I like the location but hotel needs a face lift and pool sucks.

I was in LAS this past weekend, I stayed at Bellagio but also "slotted" at Caesars--I think they misanticipated demand, lots of people playing slots, more Casinos will open VERY soon, IMHO.

Damn - that sucks. I am absolutely not a high roller - like early evening Blackjack with the cheapest limit and this place ticked the boxes...
Oh well, I guess there's plenty more $5 out there

Mirage and Park MGM are in the MLIFE (MGM Group) [Bellagio is open]; Paris (Caesars is open) are in Total Rewards--I doubt different systems cross-honor bookings.

Even when I stay at Bellagio i am not crazy about their casino so usually play at Caesar or Cosmo and I have heard conflicting reports on crowds at various places but the video I have seen of Cosmo made it look as busy as ever .
Plenty more $5 tables ? Not on the strip that I know of. I like playing low limits too...then I can play for hours. I have played $5 at Luxor at off times but getting a seat was hard.

Excalibur always midweek and earlier in the evening, usually on or two weekend until they switch to $10
NYNY now has a table committed to $5 all day everyday
LINQ in the afternoons tends to have $5
Cromwell plenty of $5 until later in the evening
Hooters always has $5 and usually a few
What I found peculiar is Flamingo never has $5 now and it’s definitely lower end...

I avoid weekends as I like a few of us to get on a table together, I’ve found:
