These large photographs display emotive images from World Series of Poker history, including Stu Ungar’s dramatic comeback, a young Phil Hellmuth winning the championship in 1989, and pictures from Johnny Chan’s era of domination in the late ’80s. Managers have received high praise for this update, with gamblers complimenting the new Poker Hall of Fame display. In its former incarnation, Binion’s was also the home of the World Series of Poker from its inception in 1970 until 2004.įollowing a 2016 redesign, Binion’s poker room now spreads roughly 6 tables of action. Players at Binion’s (formerly Binion’s Horseshoe) can gamble on the site of many legendary multi-million-dollar clashes, such as the 1949 heads-up match between Johnny Moss and Nick “The Greek” Dandolos. Named in recognition of founder Benny Binion, Binion’s Gambling Hall and Hotel is steeped in poker history.
