    It's official. Harrah's Entertainment will now be known as Caesars Entertainment. The company also made news late week when it canceled a proposed $610 million stock sale.

    It is unknown how this name change will affect Harrah's Interactive Entertainment, the online gambling arm of the company.

    Haven't been able to find anything conclusive actually.

    There are mentions of an online casino CaesarsPalaceCasino.com but I can't seem to be able to locate it

    There are some updates here: http://www.onlinecasinolist.org/casino-news-342

    This is a large and rich casino group.

    Looks like they don't take Aussie players - they keep redirecting me "based on my geographical location"

    Merging with PartyGaming again? Is that really how great PartyGaming is? It seems like everybody is wanting to merge with them. Well, good luck for the new name of Harrah's.

    I wonder if they would still be known under their new name.

    For what it's worth I prefer the new name. Before I got into this industry and visited las Vegas etc Caesers Palace was probably the ONLY casino I could have named that is in Vegas (in my defence I got into
    This industry pretty young) but there must be many others outside the industry who have heard of Caesers and not Harrahs.
