Food Network celebrities, Memphis legends, and owners of Neely’s BBQ, Pat and Gina Neely, will be burning up the Harrah’s Tunica stage September 18th giving the crowd a delicious dose of entertainment and the secrets behind their recipes for a happy home and red hot kitchen.
With Labor Day Weekend just around the corner and a fall getaway on the radar, you might be wondering what to do during your time off of the casino floor in Tunica. While you can always go outlet and antique shopping, play a few rounds of golf or tennis, treat yourself to the spa, lay out by the pool, and enjoy live entertainment, here are some ideas of things to do exploring the area that are off the beaten path.
Making a place bet on 4 — betting a craps shooter will roll a 4 before the next 7 — is a weak bet, with a house edge of 6.67 percent. Same deal if you place 10. The house edge is still 6.67 percent, and there are several bets at the craps table that are much better percentage plays.

Elvis is King! That has been the saying for many years and is evident every year on August 15. That is the date for the annual candlelight vigil at Graceland in Memphis, Tennessee. This year marked the 32nd annual vigil. I have always heard about it, and seeing that Graceland is just down the road from Tunica I decided to see for myself.
A reader e-mailed me with her take on playing video slot machines.
“I like to cover all the lines, although I can’t afford to bet $3 or $5 at a time on a ‘penny’ slot machine. I can’t bet 25 coins a line, but sometimes I’ll bet five a line. On a penny machine with 20 lines, that means I’m betting a dollar a spin.
Are you looking for something different to experience on your next trip to Tunica? The Blues Belt Café and Marketplace, Museum de Sankofa, and The Lounge are all located near The Fitz Casino and offer full afternoon and night worth of dining, touring, shopping, and entertainment.
In blackjack, if the dealer has an Ace face up when you’re dealt a blackjack, the dealer will ask if you want “even money.” If you wager $10, you’ll win $10 even if the dealer also has a blackjack. “The only sure thing in the house,” I’ve had dozens of dealers tell me.
It’s a form of insurance, which is really a bet that the dealer has a blackjack. You’re offered insurance whenever the dealer has an Ace up. That allows you to make a wager half the size of your original wager. If the dealer has a 10-value card face down, your insurance bet pays 2-1.
One of the most frequent questions we hear when people call our office is, “Do you know of any current discounts or specials in Tunica?” Of course, another one is, “Can you give us some coupons for our upcoming trip to Tunica?”
Now there’s good news for both questions! Our new Promotions and Specials Page has both, plus MUCH more, and as a Tunica Insider, you are the first to see the page that has it all!
2010 marks the 75th anniversary of Elvis’ birthday and Travel Tunica thought what better time to experience Graceland. With Tunica MS being just 30 minutes away, we headed up Hwy. 61 to first have lunch at one of Elvis’ favorites, Arcade Restaurant.
Founded in 1919, the Arcade is Memphis’ oldest café, and Elvis frequented so often that a booth is dedicated to him. Not only is the food great . . . The Downtowner pizza is a must try, but the atmosphere and design is what moviemakers hope to find in a location. Click here for the complete story on the Arcade.
Next we headed to Graceland and were amazed at the number of people we saw on a Wednesday afternoon. There was a steady flow of tour buses driving through the Graceland gates.
Payoffs in most video poker games start at a pair of Jacks, so many players underestimate the power of low pairs.
If you’re dealt a single Jack along with a low pair, such as two 5s, what are you going to do? It’s tempting to keep the single Jack and draw four cards, each with chance to bring a second Jack that’ll at least get you your money back.
