Real estate mogul Tilman Fertitta's years-long quest to buy Caesars Entertainment Inc. is finally paying off: His firm struck a $5.7 billion, all-cash deal for the Las Vegas company on Thursday that will add some 52 casinos in the US to his entertainment empire. Fertitta's pursuit of Caesars dates as far back as 2018, when the owner of the Golden Nugget casinos approached the company about a possible merger. Fertitta had borrowed heavily to buy the Houston Rockets basketball team for $2.2 billion, and the potential merger was seen at the time as a means of folding his debt into a larger company.  Fertitta eventually built a stake in Caesars, signaling his continued interest in a tie-up. As part of the takeover announced on Thursday, Fertitta Entertainment Inc. is paying Caesars shareholders $31 a share in cash.
