It's a convenient location close to a major Texas population center. There is one in Oklahoma near the Texas border as well for the same reason.
That's why Lake Chuck metro (292,000 people) has the same number of casinos as the Baton Rouge metro (850,000 people). Lake Chuck is more convenient to the Houston market.

We were closer to Dallas than New Orleans was.
