  • Two recent major jackpots at Beau Rivage highlight strong slot payouts this year.
  • IGT games Top Dollar and Double Gold produced multiple six-figure wins this year.
  • South Mississippi casinos logged nine six-figure jackpots totaling about $2.4 million so far.

A day after a player won $160,000 at Beau Rivage Resort and Casino in Biloxi, another major jackpot hit.

The latest came at 11:36 p.m. Thursday by a player from Douglasville, Georgia. The person sat at a Top Dollar machine in the high limits area and played for 16 minutes before the lucky spin.

The $200 bet on a $100 denomination slot machine turned into a $100,000 jackpot.

This is the ninth jackpot already this year at South Mississippi casinos, with five of them won at the Beau Rivage.

It also is the second win this year on the Top Dollar slot machine. The classic-style IGT game is known for its bonus round to maximize winnings. The first Top Dollar jackpot came Jan. 18 at the Beau Rivage, when a player from Florida also won $100,000.
