Section 8 – Other Events

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On April 27, 2010, Full House Resorts, Inc. (“Full House”) announced a favorable decision in the arbitration proceeding initiated against it by Harrington Raceway, Inc. (“HRI”). HRI claimed, in a June 19, 2009 pleading, that it disputed the formula for calculating the minimum annual guaranteed payment to Full House pursuant to the Management Reorganization Agreement between it and Full House dated June 18, 2007. The arbitration hearing was held in February of this year and the ruling was issued on April 26th denying HRI’s claim, holding that HRI was not entitled to any credit or refund and that the minimum annual guaranteed management fee payable to Full House had been properly computed.

The term of the Management Agreement is through August of 2011 and Full House expects to continue receive at least the 5% minimum annual increase in fees as set forth in the agreement.

The press release issued by Full House on April 27, 2010 in connection with the favorable decision is included in Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
