SANDERSVILLE, Miss. (WDAM) - The only casino in the Pine Belt is now open again. The Bok Homa Casino shut down four months ago due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
There are some game changes.
“We’ve added these crystal betting tables over here which have their own personal TV on them, so you can watch your game, sit there; it’s like a VIP experience,” said Bok Homa Casino Sportsbook Director Chris Hopwood. “You’ll be able to do the in-play betting on the screen itself just like our regular kiosks all our guests love that were here before.”
In addition to game changes, sanitation measures are being taken to keep players safe.
“We have chip cleaning machines for those who like to play table games. Those chips are cleaned and sanitized before you ever sit down,” said Bok Homa Casino Public Relations Director Erica Moore. “Our slot machines, we have techs that are walking around; they will sanitize those machines for you prior to play. We have an air filtration system that we’ve installed. This place is going to be extremely safe for you to come into.”
Guests may only enter through the front door. The side doors will be used as exits only. Additionally, smoking will not be allowed inside, but there are smoking sections outside.
The casino is set up with social distancing in mind as every other machine is closed to provide space between players.
According to officials, Lucky’s Restaurant inside the casino will be open but only for to-go orders. Masks must be worn inside at all times, so there will be no eating allowed inside the facility.
After the reopening, Bok Homa Casino will be open 24/7.

The casino closed in March due to COVID-19 concerns. Since then, major steps have been taken in preparation for its reopening, like adding thermal temperature scanners to the casino entrance.
“The device itself will record the temperature from the outside to the temperature on the inside and will also check the heat from the neck to the face and it give us a read out of the temperature,” Pearl River Resort Director of Security Faron Gardner said. “Anything 100.4 or above, that’s going to get our attention.”
The casino also plans to install a Trane UV Light Air Cleaning System.
“It will take about 99.9 percent of all pathogens out of the system, including things like measles and everything else, the flu, common flu,” Pearl River Resort Chief Information Officer William Burtch said.
Table games will be limited to a certain number of players.
“You’ll see circles on the floor so you’ll know exactly where to stand so we can maintain our social distancing guidelines and keep everybody safe,” Pearl River Resort Director of Table Games Neal Atkinson said.
Cleaning machines will also be used to disinfect all gaming chips. In addition to their sanitation protocols, the casino has removed several chairs from slot machines.
“We’re going to have every other machine out of order, so we have some space in between the guest so they’ll be comfortable and safe,” Pearl River Resort Director of Slot Operations Kristine Walker said.
In the sportsbook area, social distancing placards have been placed.
“We’ve added two additional kiosks so we can have the capacity with plexiglass dividers,” Atkinson said. “We’re going to really advocate that people use their mobile app cause that’s the guaranteed way to be safe and to socially distance. That’s the easiest way to make a bet when you’re on the Bok Homa property.”
The casino will also be using an electrostatic spray technology to disinfect surfaces throughout the facility.
“We have actually put in over $600,000 worth of technology between our three properties; Golden Moon, Silver Star and right here at Bok Homa Casino,” Pearl River Resort Director of Public Relations Erica Moore said. “We’re taking this very seriously and we’re going to make sure that this is one of the safest place that our guest can choose to come and play.
