European Masters of Poker at its Climax
The World Series of Poker is to stay at its current home in downtown Las Vegas in 2005 after Harrah's Entertainment agreed that the event could be run from its recently purchased Binion's Horseshoe for at least one extra year beyond this year's event.
The ownership of the casino has been transferred from former majority owner Becky Behnen to West Virginia's MTR Gaming Group. MTR will own the property but Harrah's will operate it for at least one year, with options to extend for another two years.
The deal also gives Harrah's the rights to the 'Horseshoe' and 'World Series of Poker' brand names, while MTR keeps the name Binion's.
