Sam's Town Tunica Hotel & Gambling Hall News

Rudi Schiffer warns casino operators about counterfeit bills and takes a look at the gambling calendar in the South.

If casino visitations are down in Tunica County you would never know it at HARRAH’S which just finished its $45 million remodeling that centered not on more games but on the reputation of a grand ma cook.

Rudi reports that while overall traffic may be down in Tunica, you would never know by the quality of entertainment events that are on the upcoming calendar.

Schiffer on how the Fat Man beat the house, a well-deserved honor going to a Mississippi golf pro and how the world's newest and hottest gaming destination continues to flourish.

Schiffer reminds players that dealers are people too, so don't blame them for bad beats.

It is somewhat amazing to learn that of the 61 boxing matches in a row that PRIZE FIGHT BOXING has staged in Tunica’s casinos, all have been sell-outs according to the Southaven promoter. Another full-house is expected on July 14 when FIGHTS AT THE FITZ resume.

There is a big blackjack tournament coming up and you still have time to enter it. THE FITZ is staging its first ULTIMATE BLACKJACK TOURNAMENT, an offspring of the minds of THE MAV and his compatriot, BIG ADOLPH. It has a $500 buy-in that includes two days of play, a comp two-nighter in the newly decorated hotel, a comp breakfast each morn and a tournament gift. There is also a pool-side welcome reception on Friday June 29 with tournament play taking place on June 30 and July 1 at 9 a.m.
