For those visiting Biloxi, some quick tips for VP play.
Pay tables are generally correct at VPFree if you're looking for a specific game or are trying to make your casino hopping plan
Silver Slipper has 9/6 at a $1 and lots of machines, low point requirements for food comps, especially weekdays. They also have NSUD Dueces at $1
Treasure Bay has 8/5 BP (99.16%) on almost all single hand machines at $0.50 and higher - only three UltX machines in the house though and another 6 or so multi-game machines. Fairly aggressive on mailers with slot play
Palace has some good games, including newer multi-machines and is smoke free. We've found their offers thus far to be below average vs the others
Island View has a good selection - including UltX on bartops in the smoke free 'beech casino' section. IV has been very aggressive with mailer offers on slot play
At the Beau Rivage, they have newer/nicer VP machines in the High Limit room at essentially the same demons as the old machines on the floor
Golden nugget only has a few machines over 99% (8/5 BP on 2 bartops - happy hunting ) - at least for under $5. We love staying at the Nugget and they've been above average with free room offers for table and slot play but just not our go-to for video poker
Harrahs New Orleans has a larger variety, average pay tables, but plenty of Quick Quads as well as newer multi-hand variants
I have played all over the Mississippi coast. In fact, before Katrina, we owned a small property down there in Hancock County. My experience in recent years has been that Silver Slipper is pretty good at the $1 level. Caution --- some of the paytables drop if you try to go up to $5. IP has a few good machines but you have to look hard. I simply refuse to play at the Beau, as nice as it is, because their paytables are so greedy. I second the OP's advice to follow VP Free before making a casino decision on the coast.
I would be interested in hearing a recent report on the new casino just north of IP off of I-110, right outside of Biloxi. Can't recall the name. Are their paytables and games decent at $1 and $5, anyone know?
Your asking about the Scarlet Pearl. I'll use your question as an excuse to recheck their machines this weekend while we're in Biloxi Scarlet Pearl's machines are all new/shiny but pay tables were pretty Biloxi average if I recall. They did have plenty of UtlX and multi-hand games.
The property is also very well lit inside compared to most of the others which is a refreshing change.
Their new player program isn't great, haven't given them enough action to evaluate comps and offers yet.
