Re: Imperial Palace Biloxi Poker Room
[ QUOTE ]
I played the last hand dealt at the Palace the night they shut down for Katrina. It was a pretty room. I don't see why it wouldn't open with the rest of the place unless they don't have the employees to staff it. But I also wonder what the hell it's going to be like on the Gulf Coast with nothing but casinos functioning.

I read that the Grand in Gulfport is not going to reopen, but the Grand in Biloxi will.
I just heard from a friend who owns (well, owned) a house in Waveland. He said that that there is not a single wall standing--just slabs and driveways. I wouldn't expect much infrastructure on the Mississippi Coast for quite a while. In spite of the impression that some news sources have been giving--that Mississippi under the leadership of Haley Barbour is coming along just fine, while New Orleans where the evil Democrats live is still a disaster, Mississippi is NOT coming along just fine. It is still badly damaged, and things are moving slowly there too.
