Scarlet Pearl Casino Resort is a casino and hotel in D'Iberville, Mississippi.
The resort has 300 hotel rooms, 68,000 square feet (6,300 m2) of gaming space, including a newly built high limit area (opened late 2020) and amenities including a 36-hole miniature golf course, a buffet, and three other restaurants. [2] The property also features a swimming pool and fitness center.
The project, originally named the Can Can Casino Resort and Spa, gained site approval from the Mississippi Gaming Commission in February 2010, [3] but development stalled because of the Great Recession. [4] Revised plans for the casino, by now known as the Scarlet Pearl, were approved by the commission in December 2013. [5] Groundbreaking was held in July 2014. [6] The property opened on December 9, 2015, at a cost of $290 million. [2]
On October 1, 2019, the Scarlet Pearl's sportsbook took one of the largest bets in sports-betting history when they accepted Jim "Mattress Mack" Mcingvale's $3.5 million wager on the Houston Astros to win the 2019 World Series. [7] In total, Mcingvale wagered $6.2 million at the Scarlet Pearl over the course of October, 2019 with all wagers on the Houston Astros to win the World Series. [8]
