Because of its location in the heart of dingy downtown Las Vegas, Binion's doesn't attract as many casual players as it could if it were situated on the Strip. For several decades, Binion's hosted the biggest cash games in the world. Binion's is where the World Series of Poker began it's where Johnny Moss and Nick the Greek played their legendary heads-up match. Going downtown to Binion's is like visiting Mecca for poker players.
