    LAS VEGAS -- Harrah's Entertainment received a $15.05 billion offer for the company from two private-equity firms in what would be the biggest deal ever for a casino operator and the fifth-largest leveraged buyout in history.

    Harrah's said Monday that Apollo Management and Texas Pacific Group are offering $81 per share in cash, a 22 percent premium to Harrah's closing stock price Friday on the New York Stock Exchange.
