I was putting a report together for a local mag and thought I'd share it here:

New at the Ameristar Vicksburg poker room:
There's a new $5-10-20 Limit Texas Hold 'Em game. Ameristar is now spreading this structured limit game that features a double sized optional bet on the river. The betting rounds are $5 both before and on the flop, $10 on the turn and river, but the players have the option of making a larger $20 bet on the river. This produces an action packed game, but without the big risks found in a no limit game. The regulars have devoted Mondays to playing this game, but is available on request whenever enough players sign up for the list. There is also a regular Omaha Hi/LO game that is played Tuesdays and Fridays starting at 10am.

They also regularly spread 3/6 and 4-8 LHE, and 1-3 and 2-5 NLHE, O8. Other games and limits available by request. Players may call ahead to reserve a seat by calling the direct number to the poker room: 601-630-4996.

Here's the list of promotions from their June calendar:
All month long: Earn tickets every day for the Saturday drawings by getting a full house or better.
Mondays: $10 Cash for two hours play, 10 am-noon.
Tuesdays & Wednesdays: Splash the Pot all Jackpot eligible games will have $100 added to the pot at the top of the hour from 10am-3pm
Thursday; No Limit Texas Hold 'Em tournament at 7:00pm
Fridays: Hot Seat drawings for $100 at 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11:00 pm.
Saturdays: Full house drawings for $300 at 7& 8 pm, $400 at 10:00pm. Must be present and playing in at time of drawing to win.

Also, the Bad Beat Jackpot has recently been restructured and is supplemented by two back-up jackpots, insuring that it will never fall below $50,000. Currently, the main Bad Beat Jackpot is $64,000 and rising. To win it, four of a kind must be beaten.
