Caesars Entertainment announced it will invest $4 million in the Grand Victoria Casino, located on the Fox River in Elgin, Illinois. Improvements will include a new sportsbook and poker room.
Specifically, officials said the new sportsbook and poker room will replace the Indulge Kitchen Buffet. The 2,100-square-foot sportsbook will offer self-service kiosks and cashier windows. The 4,400-square-foot poker room with 20 tables will host competitions, including World Series of Poker events.
Grand Victoria Casino currently offers 1,088 slot machines, 12 poker tables and 30 table games, plus several dining options, which also will be renovated.
The Illinois Gaming Board reported $565 million in gross gaming revenue in August and $1 billion in gross gaming revenue since sports betting launched in March, delivering $175 million in tax revenue to the state.
