The Indiana Gaming Commission on Friday approved the $17.3 billion merger of Eldorado Resorts and Caesars Entertainment Corp. — with conditions.

Eldorado Resorts, based in Reno, Nevada, is the current owner of Tropicana Evansville. Currently, Caesar's has four Indiana locations: Hoosier Park in Anderson, Horseshoe Casino in Hammond, Indiana Grand in Shelbyville and Caesar's Southern Indiana in Elizabeth.

Eldorado officials agreed that the combined company, which would operate as Caesars Entertainment Inc., would divest three Indiana properties to address concerns about the company's market concentration. Eldorado shall have definite agreements for those divestitures on or before Dec. 31.

According to the Associated Press, Eldorado chief executive Thomas Reeg told the commission that the Evansville and Elizabeth locations would 'likely be sold,' with a sale of the Hammond casino also a possibility.

By the commission's projections, the merger as originally proposed would result in Caesars Entertainment Inc. controlling between 50% to 60% of gaming revenues in Indiana. By divesting at least two of those properties it would fall to at or below 40%.

Eldorado resorts would become one of the largest casino chains in the U.S., with operations in 16 different states. The merger has already been approved by the state of Nevada and federal regulators.

'We are open to any employment conditions that you would impose upon the combined company. We do not see significant cuts in the Indiana assets. We didn't see that prior to COVID, as I said,' Tom Reeg, Eldorado Resorts CEO, said during the virtual meeting. 'Post-COVID a lot of it's going to be impacted by what operations we're allowed to bring back, but Indiana job cuts are not a material percentage of any savings that we see going forward.'

The Federal Trade Commission is requiring Eldorado-Caesars to divest casino assets in the South Lake Tahoe area of Nevada and the Bossier City-Shreveport area in Louisiana to settle charges that the merger likely would be anti-competitive in those markets.

Eldorado is selling its Isle of Capri casino in Kansas City, Missouri, independent of the proposed acquisition of Caesars. Eldorado views Indiana as a growth market.

The new company would focus on growing revenues at Indiana properties reopened to the public, growing and improving horse racing in Indiana, and support the expansion of table games at Hoosier Park and Indiana Grand.
