It is owned by Gaming and Leisure Properties and operated by Penn National Gaming. The property features a 56,000-square-foot casino that offers 1,900 slot machines including reels, video reels and video poker; more than 40 table games; a high limit gaming room that is on land adjacent to the riverboat; and a 288-room hotel.[1] HistoryShowboat Mardi Gras Casino opened on April 18, 1997.[2] In 1998, Harrah's Entertainment bought Showboat, Inc. and renamed the property as Harrah's East Chicago. Harrah's later sold it to Resorts International Holdings, and the casino's name was changed, along with the street name to 777 Resort Blvd (similar to the addresses used for some Harrah’s branded casinos: 777 Harrah’s Blvd). It was later sold in 2007 to Ameristar Casinos and changed its name to Ameristar before the September 2008 deadline.[3][4][5]In August 2013, the property became part of Pinnacle Entertainment when that company acquired Ameristar Casinos.[6][7] In April 2016, the property was sold to Gaming and Leisure Properties along with almost all of Pinnacle's real estate assets, and leased back to Pinnacle.[8][9] In October 2018, Penn National Gaming acquired the property's operations as part of its acquisition of Pinnacle.[10] VesselThe Win Star is the vessel that hosts the casino. The vessel uses a diesel reduction propulsion system and has a length of 332.2 feet. The boat's gross tons is 2803.0 and net tons measures 1906.0. It was built in 1997 by Atlantic Marine, Inc.[11] References1. ^{{Cite web|website=Ameristar.com |url=http://www.ameristar.com/Files/Fact_Sheet_East_Chicago.pdf |title=Fact_Sheet_East_Chicago |access-date=2012-05-31 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120602043113/http://www.ameristar.com/Files/Fact_Sheet_East_Chicago.pdf |archive-date=2012-06-02 |dead-url=yes |df= }} {{East Chicago, Indiana}}{{casino-stub}}2. ^{{cite news|title=Showboat casino opens with a bang|newspaper=Post-Tribune|location=Indiana|date=May 21, 1997|publisher=via HighBeam|url=http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1N1-108496C39AAA375D.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140921211959/http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1N1-108496C39AAA375D.html|dead-url=yes|archive-date=September 21, 2014|accessdate=2012-05-13}} {{subscription required}} 3. ^{{cite news |author=John Grochowski |title=Showboat changes course |work=Chicago Sun-Times |date=June 21, 1998 |pages=}} 4. ^{{cite news |title=Harrah's East Chicago casino is sold to Colony Capital. |url=http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_hb5553/is_200409/ai_n22242984 |work=Knight Ridder/Tribune Business News |date=September 2004 |accessdate=2008-06-22}} {{Dead link|date=September 2010|bot=RjwilmsiBot}} 5. ^{{cite press release|title=AMERISTAR CASINOS’ ACQUISITION OF RESORTS EAST CHICAGO |publisher=Ameristar Casinos |date=September 13, 2007 |url=http://www.ameristarcasinos.com/corp/c_aa_vew_prelease.asp?id=1174&catId=70&yearId=-1&cp=3 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20120718053111/http://www.ameristarcasinos.com/corp/c_aa_vew_prelease.asp?id=1174&catId=70&yearId=-1&cp=3 |dead-url=yes |archive-date=July 18, 2012 |accessdate=2008-06-22 }} 6. ^{{cite news|title=Ameristar Casino dealt to new owner in $869 million deal|newspaper=The Times of Northwest Indiana|author=Keith Benman|date=December 21, 2012|url=http://www.nwitimes.com/business/local/ameristar-casino-dealt-to-new-owner-in-million-deal/article_13b3a6c7-8686-5f6d-8e6f-7d176ffacf80.html|accessdate=2016-07-23}} 7. ^{{cite news|title=Pinnacle Entertainment completes $2.8 billion buyout of Ameristar Casinos|newspaper=Las Vegas Review-Journal|author=Howard Stutz|date=August 14, 2013|url=http://www.reviewjournal.com/business/casinos-gaming/pinnacle-entertainment-completes-28-billion-buyout-ameristar-casinos|accessdate=2016-07-23}} 8. ^{{cite news|title=Judge allows Ameristar deal to proceed|newspaper=The Times of Northwest Indiana|author=Andrew Steele|date=April 27, 2016|url=http://www.nwitimes.com/business/gambling/judge-allows-ameristar-deal-to-proceed/article_9bdb9356-efbf-5e7c-b94f-5a925a0cf6ea.html|accessdate=2016-07-23}} 9. ^{{cite press release|title=Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. completes the previously announced acquisition of the real estate assets of Pinnacle Entertainment, Inc.|publisher=Pinnacle Entertainment|date=April 28, 2016|url=http://investors.pnkinc.com/releasedetail.cfm?ReleaseID=968091|accessdate=2016-07-22|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160822091400/http://investors.pnkinc.com/releasedetail.cfm?ReleaseID=968091|archive-date=August 22, 2016|dead-url=yes|df=mdy-all}} 10. ^{{cite news|title=Penn National completes acquisition of Ameristar-owner Pinnacle Entertainment |newspaper=The Times of Northwest Indiana|author=Andrew Steele|date=October 16, 2018|url=https://www.nwitimes.com/business/local/penn-national-completes-acquisition-of-ameristar-owner-pinnacle-entertainment/article_4457ddbd-019b-56f4-a55a-58e1925059a6.html|accessdate=2018-10-16}} 11. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.boatinfoworld.com/registration.asp?vn=192172|publisher=BoatInfoWorld.com|title=WINSTAR Boat Information|accessdate=July 2, 2012}} 8 : Casinos in Indiana|Buildings and structures in Lake County, Indiana|Ameristar casinos|Tourist attractions in Lake County, Indiana|Casino hotels|East Chicago, Indiana|1997 establishments in Indiana|Casinos completed in 1997 |
