I'll be in Vegas in April while both of these tournaments are running and only have time for one. They seem very similar in structure and have identical buy-ins ($340) on the day I can play. For those that have played in both, is there a reason to pick one over the other? Which would you choose?

I'm not sure where the circuit is being played, but if it's a toss up, Venetian poker room is the best!

I would also go with the deep stack. The prize pools in the past have been pretty big and the players have been weak. The v also gives a free buffet to players in the deep stack.

The free buffet is a great selling point...It'll mop up all the free booze you'll be drinking and take the edge off the free Red Bull.Too bad there's no coupons for free BJ's
"We had all the momentum. We were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave. So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look west, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark, that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back." —Raoul Duke, Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas

Noodle Asia is awesome and only about 10 steps from the poker room. V is the best room in town imo.

Thanks for the input. I was leaning Circuit but apparently the Deep Stack is the better option. Deep Stack it is.
