Is $500 enough for a weekend in Vegas?

I have gone there with as little as $500 and had a good time. The key is to not try to do everything at once. I usually have a rough plan when I go out there and a daily budget. Be more specific in what you want to do and have a budget and you can have fun and not spend an arm and a leg.
