Glad you enjoyed yourself in our little corner of the world. Come back in January... absolutely sick action w/2 major tourneys in town.

I'll second this. 3 of us made the trip Jan '06 and enjoyed it thoroughly. Plenty of games to choose from (and can take your shot at a larger tourney if you wish). Many of the TV pros are around & accessible if you're into that sort of thing.

Couple travel recommendations from an outsider:

1. Flying to Memphis was pretty cheap and only 40 minutes from Tunica
2. Rent a car and drive from airport & back:
*less $$ than shuttles to & from airport
*easier to get from one casino area (Gold Strike, Horseshoe) to another (Grand)--there are shuttles but then you're not on your own schedule
3. Room rates & food are dirt cheap/free
4. Different experience from Vegas/LA/AC in a good way

I'm hoping to get back one of these days.
