The Grand Biloxi has some pretty sweet hotel rates for this month. I have seen as low as $61 and $69 for midweek. (Rates get extremely high on weekends). However these rates are very limited and are filling fast.
To view a calendar of that rates available and for dates, go here.
You can also view September, they have a handful of $77 rates.
I was there a couple weeks and had a great time playing their Fortune Pai Gow. During day I saw minimums as low as $5 but usually $10. Here is an excerpt from their site:
Pai Gow combines the ancient Chinese game of Pai Gow with the American classic, Poker, and gives card players the best of both worlds. This exciting game is played with a regular deck of 52 cards, plus one joker that can be used only as an ace, or to fill out a straight, flush or a straight flush. In Fortune Pai Gow, players make a Fortune Bonus wager to qualify for bonus payouts at the end of the round.
