Horseshoe Casino Tunica is a casinoresort located in Tunica Resorts, Mississippi. It was developed by Jack Binion, the son of Las Vegas gaming legend Benny Binion, and named after his father's famous Binion's Horseshoe downtown gambling hall. Much like its namesake, the Horseshoe Tunica is known for catering to serious gamblers, particularly table games players, and is known for its liberal, player-favorable rules and its comp policies.
Horseshoe Tunica has been the market leader in gaming and entertainment since opening on February 13, 1995. The casino known nation-wide as the place where real gamblers come to gamble has recently been remodeled to include state-of-the-art technology and luxurious furnishings and contains over 1,380 slot and video poker games, the widest variety of table games in the region.
The Tunica 'Shoe' was opened in 1995 as part of 'Casino Center,' a development by Jack Binion with three casinos side by side [Circus Circus Tunica (now Gold Strike Resort and Casino) and Sheraton Casino and Hotel (now Tunica Roadhouse Casino & Hotel) being the neighbors]. The property has undergone several expansions and renovations over the years.
Binion sold Horseshoe Gaming Holding Corporation, the Tunica property's corporate parent, to Harrah's Entertainment in 2004. Under Harrah's, the Tunica 'Shoe' became home to a World Series of Poker circuit event; previously, the Horseshoe had partnered with the neighboring Gold Strike to host the Jack Binion World Poker Open, a stop on the World Poker Tour. Harrah's Entertainment renamed itself to Caesars Entertainment in 2010.
- Horseshoe Tunica Casino and Hotel is adjacent to popular attractions such as Horseshoe Tunica Casino and Gold Strike Casino. This 3.5-star hotel has 500 rooms and welcomes guests with 6 restaurants, a casino, and an outdoor pool.
- Horseshoe Casino Hotel Tunica main section: This casino is located in Tunica, Mississippi. Horseshoe Casino Hotel Tunica has a total of 1271 gaming machines and 70 table games for you to enjoy. WCD also books casino hotel reservations in Tunica.
In October 2017, ownership of the property was transferred to Vici Properties as part of a corporate spin-off, and it was leased back to Caesars Entertainment.[1][2]
The casino features more than 70 table games, more than 2,000 slot machines, a large poker room, three fine-dining restaurants, a large buffet and a snack bar. The hotel features more than 500 rooms, most configured as suites. The main showroom, the 'Bluesville Showcase Nightclub' opened in 1998 and seats 1,400.
