Default Visiting Biloxi, need help...

I am going to Biloxi next weekend. I have been doing some research and have found two tourneys i am interested in. I wanted to get some opinions on which one I should play. I am getting into Biloxi around noonish(i am riding in on a bus with a company retreat). The tourneys at the Beau Rivage starts at noon as well as IP's tourney, so I ruled these out. I found a tourney at Boomtown which starts at 2pm ($65 freezout,no rebuys,no add-ons). I also found one at Isle of Capri that starts at 3pm which is $60 tourney that includes a $20 bounty in the buyin but has rebuys($20) and addons($25). Does anyone have any suggestions. Thanks in advance for the help.

I'll tell you from playing at the old Grand in Gulfport, you don't want to screw around with any tourney that has bounteys and rebuys. Nothing sucks like knocking someone out of a tourney and waiting for them to decide if they are going to rebuy or not so you know if you get your bounty on them.

Wouldn't just assume that the player you busted will almost certainly re-buy? Then be pleasantly surprised if you get paid the bounty?

I can't speak to the tourneys, but neither room is any great shakes from what I understand. Whatever you choose, play fast, win or bust out early, then head to the Beau.

Lotsa action in biloxi. I goabout every 3 months. The Beau tourney is easy to make money and the isle is just one big donk fest. The cash games at the beau are peeps with big money and dont mind gettin it in. I suggest playing cash games at the ilse and tourneys at the Beau

Skip the tourneys and play the live action at the Beau. They'll treat you right there.

Please post a trip report. I'm curious to see how things are coming along after the hurricane. I heard that they are building up rapidly.

things are coming along fine in Biloxi. Casinos are just fine.
My Dad just came back from yet another 3-card-poker trip to the IP and Beau.
