Horseshoe Gaming Holding Corp.
 PROFILE
Bring your lucky charms to casinos owned by Horseshoe Gaming Holding Corp. The company owns a Horseshoe Casino and Hotel in Bossier City, Louisiana, as well as one in Tunica, Mississippi. In 2001 Horseshoe Gaming sold its Empress Casino riverboat and hotel in Joliet, Illinois, but it retains an Empress location in Hammond, Indiana. Illinois officials denied the company a license to operate the Empress riverboat in Joliet, alleging that owner and CEO Jack Binion failed to comply with state regulations after buying the casino. The company appealed the decision, but later struck a deal that forced it to sell the location to Argosy Gaming
