The new Binion's poker room combines the nostalgia of the renowned Binion's heritage with the modern direction of the game. Historic photos are spaced around the room with eleven 42 and 50-inch plasma televisions for player viewing and entertainment. The Binion's Gallery of Champions and Poker Hall of Fame are located in the upscale concierge area, where available games are presented on electronic boards.
