Texas Man Hits Jackpot at Biloxi Casino with $506K+ Payout

A Texas man has come out to South Mississippi to have a good time playing blackjack, and he has scored not only a six-figure payout, but also one of the largest jackpots at the property this year.

The winner, identified as one Harrison M., 22 of Austin, Texas, is bound to remember his local visit, as the young gambler turned his sidebet on Blazing 7x Blackjack Progressive into the coveted payout of a lifetime.

The player had secured a $506,856.84 from the game, one of the most sizeable jackpots won in 2026 so far at the Biloxi property on Tuesday, May 12, the casino reported. 

This fresh win comes only a few months after another lucky player, trying their luck at Harrah’s Gulf Coast, won a $5 progressive bet and flipped it into a $615,774 payout. The win occurred on March 24, with South Mississippi continuing to crown big-time winners through and through. 

Yet, even these two jackpots pale in comparison with the $1.1 million scored by a lucky player at the Beau Rivage Resort and Casino in Biloxi. The player was having a good time at the Wheel of Fortune slot machine and managed to turn it into a massive payout.
