11a. Re: Harrahs St Louis, Horseshoe Southern Indiana and Hammond Trips
Date: Sun Aug 3, 2008 5:51 am ((PDT))Thanks for the feedback on that. Certainly the first I've seen of
this game. I'm pretty new to the group. I guess the official opening
of that Horseshoe is 8-8-08. We are going to Isle of Capri
Bettendorf,Iowa next weekend so I guess I'll miss the madhouse over
there. I will go back in mid August sometime and see what they have.
My understanding was that the 8/8 "official" (grand / whatever) opening was for the new poker room, which had a "soft" opening last week. Horseshoe Hammond has been there for a while.
To my knowledge, there is no other re-naming / re-branding / re-opening being dne with it. Caesars Indiana was very recently re-named Horseshoe Southern Indiana.
I have not figured out how they decide which brands to put on which of their properties and how they decide to change 'em, but I don't understand how gas can go up and down 30 cents a gallon in a matter of a few days either.
Re: Horseshoe Hammond...
I was aware of it's $2/and up multidenom. 3/5 play 9/6 Jacks or Better, but didn't know they had $1 single line, where is it located? (I don't go there often, but that could change if they have decent $1 JoB and a poker room, although I'll mostly delay attendance until they also build - and comp rooms at - a hotel; I heard a hotel is to be in place by next summer sometime).
