My offer went to $189, and it was accepted at Palazzo. Thing is, I don't know if I am actually all that happy about it, but I know there's nothing to be done at this point, so I might as well enjoy it. The reason I am a little disappointed is that the Palazzo's price is $259 on the site anyway, so I'm only saving $210 over the three nights. I could have booked a room at Venetian for $229/night (average) using the poker room rate, so I'm still "saving" $40/night, but I feel I am getting the less desirable hotel. I understand that Palazzo is nice, but I was really hoping to be at Venetian. Also, I know there's a chance that I won't get two queen beds, which I really need to make this trip work. I guess that was a risk that if I could not live with I should not have used Priceline. Has anyone heard of it being a problem to get the room that you want in a property this size? I would think it would be doable, but you never know. I suppose the one positive is that I don't have to play six hours of poker to get the poker room rate. However, I'll probably still end up playing 12-14 hours a day anyway. In any event, let the record reflect that you can get Palazzo on 5/1 for three nights at $189 per night. Thank you for your help.

I can get a room at The Venetian for $169/259/259 through the poker room (TH/FR/SA), so that's an effective rate of $229. I think I need to save at least $100 on the trip to make it worth my while. Also, the little voice in my head says that I'm likely to to better with a potential upgrade as a direct booker compared to a PRICELINE customer. Maybe not. Even so, if the $100 discount is plausible, then I should be willing to go as high as $196, but that's it. What do you think?

Hoping to get Venetian or Palazzo for 5/1 (3 nights) Posted rate on site (Ventian) is $349/night all three nights. Palazzo is slightly less (not sure why that is). Offered $160 at first. Rejected. Offered $179 and added Airport zone. Rejected. Suggestions? Thank you for your help.
