Most likely, this is the last news about the merger of the two largest U.S. gaming operators. Eldorado Resorts and Caesars Entertainment last Friday signed a final deal totaling $17.3 billion. The documentary agreement became a mandatory part of the completion of the largest transaction in the gambling market in 2020. It is worth noting that the 2 largest American giants did not waste their time in vain and signed the most important part of the deal just one day after the final approvals. Undoubtedly, the newly appeared gaming company has not forgotten to please its customers. If you try to visit the Eldorado Resorts website right now, you will find the superbly worded “Welcome To The Empire.”

If you are interested in Eldorado’s further fate, then this brand name will simply cease to exist. Instead, the new gambling giant will be named Caesars. However, the Eldorado CEO Tom Reeg will play a key role as CEO at Caesars. It should be noted that in total, Caesars unites 55 gaming casinos, 8 of which are located on the Las Vegas Strip.

However, the new CEO has already announced that a certain number of ground points will need to be reduced to lower the total cost of up to $500 million. Due to antitrust laws in some states, the operator will also have to sell some gambling establishments. According to gaming regulators, the influence of the newly formed company may become too large. As a result, the market may face the most giant monopolist in history. Simultaneously, some of the deals designed to reduce the influence of the gaming giant are already in the active stage.

Tom Reeg also said he welcomes the merger of the two leaders in the gambling industry and looks forward to taking advantage of the unique tools concentrated in the hands of one company. The newly minted CEO welcomed the combined workforce of the two companies and said he looks forward to strategic initiatives to ensure continued growth and prosperity.

Nevertheless, experts note that as a result of such a merger, the gaming operator will have to find common ground on decision-making speed.

Eldorado, just like Caesars, used some clear strategies for business development, which will now need to be combined as a result of the largest merger. Moreover, the corporate mentality and the business policy of both giants must become one so that high results are not long in coming. Both companies will have to learn entirely new ways to fulfill their direct responsibilities. However, this is a widespread practice that almost any business goes through the stages of merger encounters.

There are also other ramifications of this significant deal that could turn the U.S. gambling landscape on its head. The infamous William Hill U.S., formerly a sportsbook platform for Eldorado, is likely to take on the role of manager of these titles for Caesars. If such a decision really does come true, then William Hill U.S. will be able to become one of the largest operators of sportsbooks in the USA and get a completely new impetus in business development.

Caesars Entertainment Corporation is the world’s most diversified provider of gambling and entertainment. The company was founded in Nevada almost 80 years ago and is listed on the Stockholm Stock Exchange. Through subsidiaries, it operates 47 casinos in thirteen U.S. states and five countries worldwide under the Caesars, Harrah’s and Horseshoe brands. For more than 40 years, it has hosted the most abundant and top eminent poker championship, the World Series of Poker (WSOP).
