The launch was made possible through Caesars’ partnership with Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians. Players 21 and older in the Great Lakes State can now download the Horseshoe Online Casino app on iOS and Android or visit horseshoeonlinecasino.com to experience a dynamic online casino with a multi-lobby navigation layout modeled after a real-life casino floor layout with curated lobbies dedicated to core casino game mechanics, including high-limit slots, private live dealer tables, linked progressive jackpots, and variations of poker and roulette.
In addition to Michigan, online wagering is legal in Connecticut, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, West Virginia and Rhode Island with online poker play allowed in Delaware, New Jersey and Nevada.

N.J. judge tosses Atlantic City casino hotel price-fixing scheme lawsuit
A federal court judge in New Jersey tossed out a proposed class-action lawsuit against several Atlantic City casino operators which alleged a price-fixing conspiracy intended to gouge customers. Judge Karen M. Williams of the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey dismissed the case with prejudice, meaning it cannot be refiled.
The lawsuit accused Caesars Entertainment, MGM Resorts International and Hard Rock International, as well as a Florida-based software developer, of inflating hotel room prices for years using a computer algorithm.
The case in N.J. is comparable to a lawsuit in Nevada accusing Las Vegas casino-hotel operators of the same scheme.
