Harrah's Entertainment renamed itself to Caesars Entertainment in 2010. 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. The property has undergone several expansions and renovations over the years.īinion sold Horseshoe Gaming Holding Corporation, the Tunica property's corporate parent, to Harrah's Entertainment in 2004. The Tunica 'Shoe' was opened in 1995 as part of 'Casino Center,' a development by Jack Binion with three casinos side by side. 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. 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. There are a couple of restaurants within and a Starbucks upon entering.Horseshoe Casino Tunica is a casino resort located in Tunica Resorts, Mississippi, United States. The place looks pretty tired and is a bit small, but if you're just there to play, it's fine. What I found most bothersome was the way some dealers actually fling the cards rather than place them in front of you! RUDE! It didn't happen to me but I saw it at one of the tables. You also get a lot of players who don't know how to play, which can get annoying when you have a good hand or lots riding on that one play. I found the crowd a but rough-looking but maybe it's because it was so late at night by the time I made it there and at that time, it seems the men get pretty friendly. I didn't make it to Gold Strike but just comparing the two properties from outside appearances despite what mama always said, I am guessing it's much nicer. You definitely need a car to go from one casino to another which is kind of annoying. Though Tunica is supposed to be the third largest casino *town* outside of Vegas and AC, the set-up is not at all similar-there's no strip, no boardwalk. It's in the middle of nowhere and the only other casino that is within walking distance is Gold Strike.

Stopped by a couple of weeks ago for WSOP.
