One of my neighbors and a bunch of his buddy's invited me along for this weekend. I think that I am the only "serious" poker player in the group. I'm hoping to play as much as possible. I'll post a trip report when I return Tuesday.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm looking forward to hearing about this trip. I'll be heading to the Grand Casino over the 4th, never been there before...

And dont forget there are TWO Grands(biloxi and gulfport), both have different tourney schedules. Friday $90 tourneys, Mondays are rebuy tourneys(Limit in biloxi, NL in Gulfport),I think wednesdays or sundays are stud tourneys. And there is a big $200 NL tourney coming up soon.

emphasis on the +

my first casino poker experience was in Feb, 1996 at the Grand (I think the Biloxi one....but it might have been the Gulfport one).

I remember this because I briefly lived in Hattiesburg...and stopped off there on my way down to Florida when I got another job offer.
I specifically remember when I moved so I know that this Grand poker experience was in Feb, 1996. I don't know how long the room had been open before then.


I played 7-card stud (didn't know how to play hold-em) and had no idea what I was doing. I played every hand and lost $300 or so in a 1-5 game while chatting away with some old-timers.


Except for playing in a mini 7-card stud tourney at an indian-casino in Tampa in 1997 I didn't play again until Feb, 2003 when I was told about online-poker and decided to give it a try. For the first couple weeks I still couldn't remember whether a flush beat a full-house or vice-versa.

They opened in 93/94, but I am not positive they had poker rooms then so I guesstimated. Did not think it was that important

[MicroBob]

it isn't really.

i just noticed the '6' and thought, 'well, i played there over 9 years ago.'

no biggie.
