Biloxi Dueces

[Chicagoan]

I am winding up a weeklong trip to the Mississippi coast. Coming here once or twice per year for the past 8-10 years, it is sad to see the casinos in Biloxi all shifting from player's casinos to tourist's casinos. You have to drive over toHancock County (west towards New Orleans)to find any decent paytables. The Biloxi casinos are the strip, and the Hancock County casino we go to the most is the locals' casino.

Also ---- while at the IP in Biloxi in the high limit room, the attendant told of us a player who, over the course of several hours, hit deuces 3 times on a $25 machine. That's a gross win of$ $75K --- no idea how much he put into the machine to achieve those wins. Still, nice!

Anything can and will happen, even in Biloxi.  I don't play there anymore, but I had great days at the Beau about 10 years ago. I hit three quad deuces in 15 minutes once playing at the bar.   I wasn't playing $25 a coin, but it did happen.  I also hit three dollar Royals for $12K and one quarter royal for a thousand in 24 hours playing JB.I agree it's sad what happened to Biloxi.  They don't care about gamblers any more.  All they want is dummies who will play anything.   The guy who hit the 75K quad deuces had to pay Mississippi $2,250 in State taxes for the privilege of winning there.  Crazy...
