Casinos in Mississippi
All casinos in Mississippi are open 24 hours a day, and the minimum gambling age is 21.
In 1990 Mississippi became the third state to legalize riverboat gambling, today the riverboats are the only casinos found in the state, except for one Indian casino. Mississippi state gambling laws restrict casinos to only be located on the coast of the Mississippi River, and counties that border that river. Casinos in Mississippi are also required to be permanently moored at a dock, and never set sail.
Casinos Along Mississippi River
In 2005 Hurricane Katrina devastated the gulf coast. Many homes, businesses, and casinos were destroyed. Later that year the state legislature voted to allow some Mississippi casinos located on the gulf coast to be rebuilt on land. This law requires the casinos to be rebuilt within 800-feet of the shoreline.
Mississippi casinos offer such games as: blackjack, roulette, slots, video poker, craps, and three card poker. Other optional games include: baccarat, mini-baccarat, poker, pai gow poker, ultimate Texas hold'em, big six wheel, four card poker, casino war, keno, let it ride, and Spanish 21.
