There is a TON of Seminole casinos all over Florida, just like the Creek are opening up casinos in Alabama as well. It is killing illegal gambling here in the South.

Yes it still happens, but no where near the grand scale it was happening on when say the likes of Mr. Mike in Biloxi and Kirksey Nix Jr. were running the strip in Biloxi/Gulfport.

Once again you are missing the point. Tax free or not you'll be treated BETTER at a casino (which they are everywhere in NOLA now) than you would at some back room game where the stakes will be no where near the amount you can play for at the big places.

They don't have to go to Vegas, casinos are everywhere in Louisiana and Mississippi. Do you know anything about NOLA other than what you read on Wiki? Some of us have actually put our feet down there more than once and know what we are talking about.


Even though there are still examples, I think that's why you don't hear about mob-run backroom illegal casinos as much as in the past. Just like the state lottery cut into the illegal numbers racket, state or Indian casinos have cut into that racket. It's why sports betting is the mainstay of the modern day mob more than ever.

Mods should mind their own business and leave poster's profile signatures alone.

IT's been there about 10 years now. The site was originally a bingo hall in the 80s and 90s.

Nice gaming floor. They have a huge Asian- themed area with lots of baccarat (heavy Asian clientele) and a great noodle bar. They also have one of, if not the, largest slot floor in the country, which makes sense with our large elderly population (they love their slots!)

They have blackjack, poker, table games - Only thing is they don' have craps. Strange FLoriduh gambling laws.

Same here Scott, all the Creek pretty much have are their slots and they stay BUSY all day everyday. No card games.

You can't play craps (legally) in Florida? I wonder how that came about?
