Vegas Birthday Weekend - Suggestions?

I am in the very early stages of planning a long weekend in Vegas for my 40th.  It will be the first weekend of September 2020 (week 1 NFL) and gambling will be heavy on the planner.   I want to get you guys’ suggestions on everything: 

Sportsbooks (should I do VIP or no?)

Where to stay - must have a nice pool area

Restaurants

Activities

General do’s and don’ts

Any suggestions are appreciated!  Sorry my account is so new, I’m mostly a lurker here.  

Book your room now!!!

The wagyu at blt is real good. Well worth it.

General do’s and don’ts...

Whatever you were planning to do,

Pack HALF the clothes,

and bring FOUR TIMES the money.

Breakfast at Mon Abi Gabi inside Paris. Get an outdoor table on the strip early morning before it gets hot outside....... if your up to it. Good food, great outdoor atmosphere and a self serve bloody Mary bar.
