*depends on your taste. horseshoe is 'grittier' than harrah's. the casino
also is more cramped and smoky, imho. there is the benefit of the two
casinos there (i wouldn't count gold strike. it's not a caesar's casino, and
the vp is completely unplayable). as for the 'best vp' mentioned by the
other commenter, harrah's does have full pay $ vp (or it did when i was
there last).*
*
*
* i should mention that i have found the employees at tunica (including my
host) to be extremely friendly and helpful.*
*
*
*i actually go to tunica because it is in the middle of nowhere, because it
is a slower pace, because the service is so good--good vp and a nice pool
are all i need. to each his own.*
*
*
*as for the other person's comment about paula dean's buffet--it's true. you
can feel you arteries start to clog the minute you walk through the door.
but it's a huge, tasty buffet, if it's your thing.*
*
*
*have fun and win big!
