Horseshoe Tunica Poker Room Reno Underway

It looks like the poker room renovations have begun at Horseshoe Tunica. I saw this tweet this morning:

 @Horseshoetunica: Our poker room has moved temporarily to @RoadhouseTunica while we renovate, enlarge, and add a @WSOP Lounge!

A WSOP lounge?? I wonder if that means the Horseshoe will start hosting the WSOP circuit series in January rather than Harrah's where it is usually held? Hmmm, it sounds that way to me. I think that will be a nice change! Can't wait to see the new room, which is expected to be ready in 6-8 weeks. 

I read some gossip on 2+2 a while back about how they put a lot of money into the new Roadhouse poker room only to close it a short time later. So now it's being used as a temporary room for Horseshoe. (All 3 casinos, Harrah's, Horseshoe & Roadhouse, are Caesars properties.)

The following photo is from their facebook page and they said the room is located on the 2nd floor at Roadhouse. As far as I know it will be business as usual, with the same games and same daily tournament schedule at this new location, which is right next door to the Horseshoe. I think I'll check it out soon.
