It was in 2018 when a South Mississippi casino last had a million-dollar win. Back then, a Florida man won nearly $1.3 million at Hard Rock Casino Biloxi, the Sun Herald reported.
Sunday’s win at the Beau Rivage Casino followed a November 16 payout at the same gaming property. Back then, a New York woman won $207,875 on a blackjack table game.
The Gulf Coast is where the bulk of the Mississippi gaming industry’s revenue is realized. Of the nearly $2.67 billion won last year by the 26 casinos in the state, the 11 coastal casinos accounted for $1.6 billion of the money.
