About This Property

The casino at 3645 South Las Vegas Boulevard in Paradise, Nevada is currently operating as Horseshoe Las Vegas following a 2022 rebrand by Caesars Entertainment Corporation. Our directory indexes this property under the Bally’s Las Vegas name, which applied from 1986 to 2022. The property opened in 1973 as the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino — at the time, the largest hotel in the world — under Kirk Kerkorian. A 1980 fire, which killed 84 people, led to major safety code reforms across the US hotel industry. Bally’s Entertainment acquired the property in 1986 and renamed it Bally’s Las Vegas. Caesars Entertainment rebranded it Horseshoe Las Vegas in 2022, connecting it to the iconic Horseshoe brand. Social media: @HorseshoeVegas on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

All gaming is regulated by the Nevada Gaming Control Board, with a minimum gambling age of 21. The floor operates 24 hours a day. The Caesars Rewards loyalty network covers the property.

Gaming Floor

The floor carries approximately 1,250 gaming machines alongside a 65-table game section spanning 18 distinct game types — one of the more varied menus on the central Las Vegas Strip. The machine bank covers standard reel slots, Video Poker, and Simulcasting terminals for horse racing.

A 14-table poker room spreads 7 Card Stud, Limit Hold’em, and NL Texas Hold’em — a three-variant program that retains 7 Card Stud in an era when most Strip rooms have eliminated Stud from regular rotation.

Several table game types are noteworthy. Sic Bo (Chinese dice game, three dice, specialized table) appears here alongside The Venetian and MGM Grand as one of the few Strip casinos that maintains a Sic Bo table. Spanish 21 uses a 48-card deck (10-spot cards removed) with player-favorable rule liberalizations. Pai Gow Tiles is the Chinese domino game, distinct from Pai Gow Poker. Casino War is the simplest table game — highest card wins. The combination of Sic Bo, Spanish 21, Pai Gow Tiles, and Caribbean Stud Poker alongside the classics makes the 65-table section unusually varied for its size.

Caesars Rewards

The property at 3645 S Las Vegas Blvd is covered by Caesars Rewards. Tier credits earned here apply across the full Caesars portfolio. Enroll at the players desk or via caesarsrewards.com.
