Description

Binion’s Casino, originally known as the Eldorado Club, has a storied history that dates back to its founding in 1951 by the legendary Benny Binion. Located in downtown Las Vegas on Fremont Street, the casino quickly became famous for its welcoming atmosphere and high-stakes poker games. Benny Binion introduced the World Series of Poker (WSOP) in 1970, a now-iconic annual event that has grown to become the pinnacle of professional poker tournaments worldwide.

Binion’s Casino was renowned for its generous odds, friendly service, and unique promotions, such as offering free drinks to players and posting true odds on table games. The Binion family managed the casino for several decades, maintaining its reputation as a gambler’s paradise.

In 2004, the casino changed ownership, but it retained its classic charm and continued to be a beloved landmark in Las Vegas. Today, Binion’s Casino remains a testament to the legacy of its founder, preserving the spirit of old-school Vegas while offering modern gaming and entertainment experiences.
