Caesars Entertainment Inc. (Nasdaq: CZR) says it plans to invest more than $32 million to expand the gaming floor of Indiana Grand Racing & Casino in Shelbyville and add 100 new jobs.

The casino will expand by 25,000 square feet, which will allow for the addition of 100 slot machines and 25 table games.

Caesars says Indianapolis-based Wilhelm Construction was awarded the contract and will begin work in April. The casino expects the work to be completed by the end of 2021.

Caesars says the expansion includes a live poker room with 20 tables, which will allow players to qualify for World Series of Poker tournaments.
