I'm going to be making a quick trip to Tunica and playing late tonight and tomorrow. I'm hoping my low rolling self can catch a break at the tables and come out a few $$ ahead. We shall see. I'll mostly be playing bac and craps. Maybe a little BJ thrown in somewhere.

I'll try to post some pics if I can remember how to make that work from my phone. I may need a little help remembering.

I'll be headed out shortly but won't make it in until around midnight central time. I'll post some updates on how it goes.

"Let's get Mikey to try it, he'll try anything", or some quote like that.

Bad first night. I played bac, craps, roulette, and bj and dropped $50 total.

My wife played roulette and craps and lost $100. Our combined trip total is $150 down.

I had 3 red chips left and stopped at the $5 bj tables on my way out. Laid a red chip down and drew a 11 against the dealers 10. I doubled down and drew a 6 dealer turns over a 9 for 19. I played one more hand drew a 14 against a 10. Hit the 14 and drew my 10. I called it a night and I'll play a little more tomorrow.

I've got to pull that "positive attitude" together to get things going in my favor.

It has a bed. If it has a flush toilet, shower, HVAC and the roof don't leak you're good to go. A comped room is, ..well it's comped.

I guess you need a sink too. And a safe to keep your winnings in!

Tunica is the ultimate low roller place. I've always been treated good here and rarely drop over a couple hundred bucks on a trip. If I figure in my comps I almost always leave ahead. I'm down $150 now, but I already have a lunch buffet for two comped ($15.99 each), I've gotten a room for two nights ($59 a night on Expedia), plus all I want to drink. I should get a supper buffet tonight as well. I've already gotten offers for next month of a total of four nights for the month.


If you have any questions about Tunica let me know and I'll try my best to answer.

Why are you posting communist yellow tainted pictures instead of playing down on the gaming floor? You are supposed to be trying out the cereal Mikey!

Slide $20 in a slot machine.




Cashed out $50 for a $30 win. Now I'm only $20 down.

Total for the trip -$120

I was at a friends house a bunch of years ago when another friend was passed out drunk. He got up and without hesitation peed all over the other guys big screen TV. Completely ruined it.

Won $25 playing bac. I'm now $5 down. I have no idea where my wife's at. Last I checked she was around $120 in the hole. I'm going to change places and try another bac session.

Wife makes a complicated situation unfathomable. Sell wife, buy a new one that likes to watch TV in comped room. It did have a TV didn't it? Then you go play high limit. I'm still dancing but I'm gettin' a little winded here ;-)

I dropped $50 playing bac. Wife has dropped $150 so we are down $210 total.

Fixing to head to a comped buffet for supper and hit the road home probably. If the bac table, or craps table, or roulette table doesn't call to loud again lol.

Room for two nights at $59 a night = $119, lunch buffet for two at 14.99 (I was off one dollar on the price when I listed it in a earlier post) 29.98, dinner buffet for two at 24.99 = 49.98 total of comps $198.96. That's not counting however many comped drinks we had during the stay. I don't think that's doing to bad.

Mikey:

Normally don't enjoy live reports as much as overall reports but had a lot of fun keeping up with you in Tunica. Wasn't sure where you stayed (maybe I just missed it) but it had to be something tall.

I think you had a great time and I did, too.

Thanks for posting.

Don

Thanks Don. I appreciate that. We stayed at Gold Strike. My small play gets us plenty of offers from them so we keep going back. Also it's the only place in Tunica where casinos are close together. Although I don't play much at the other properties, I do like being able to walk next door if I want to.
