         Black Hawk / Jacobs Entertainment, LLC (the "LLC") --- During 1994, the
Company signed a joint venture agreement with Jacobs Entertainment, Inc.
(Jacobs) of Cleveland, Ohio to develop a major hotel/casino/parking complex in
Black Hawk, Colorado (hereinafter the "Lodge"). After many changes and
revisions, the current plan for the project is a 50 room hotel/casino, with
approximately 800 slot machines, 20 table games, three restaurants, four bars,
and three floors of underground parking for approximately 450 cars. As a result
of the refinements during the development process, it was decided to incorporate
an overflow parking facility for approximately 200 additional parking spaces on
44,000 square feet of Millsite 30 into the Lodge.

         On November 12, 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with
Diversified Opportunities Group, Inc. (Diversified) and BH Entertainment Ltd.
(BH) (both affiliates of Jacobs) whereby Diversified, BH, and the Company
created the LLC in which the Company is a 75% owner and the manager of the LLC.
In connection with the formation of the LLC, Diversified provided debt and
equity financing to the Company.

         On March 27, 1997, the LLC closed financing, effective March 7, 1997,
with Wells Fargo Bank for a $40,000,000 construction loan. The loan has a five
year term, with a variable interest rate based upon the London Interbank rate
("LIBOR") plus 3.5% (9.19% at March 31, 1998). Principal payments are due
quarterly beginning at the end of the first quarter after the Lodge is open. See
"Liquidity and Capital Resources" under Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

         As of March 31, 1998, the Company has contributed approximately
$20,114,000 (including certain land costs) to the LLC which represents 75% of
the total contributed capital and Diversified has contributed approximately
$6,704,700 (including certain land costs) to the LLC which represents the
remaining 25% of contributed capital. As of March 31, 1998, the LLC has drawn
approximately $21,600,000 from its $40,000,000 construction loan with Wells
Fargo Bank. The Company and Diversified are required to maintain their
respective pro rata share of any additional capital contributions to the LLC.
Diversified's ownership in the LLC is reflected as a minority interest in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

         Oklahoma property acquisition --- During 1994, the Company acquired a
27,000 square foot parcel of land in downtown Oklahoma City with the intent of
placing the land into tribal trust for the benefit of the Sac and Fox Nation
Indian Tribe for the purpose of operating a 53,000 square foot, high stakes
Indian bingo hall, in a re-development area of downtown Oklahoma City known as
"Bricktown". The Company endeavored to negotiate with the Sac and Fox Nation
Indian Tribe, however, during 1996, negotiations did not progress as the Company
hoped. The exceedingly difficult inter-relationships between the Tribe, the
Bureau of Indian Affairs, and the National Indian Gaming Commission have caused
the Company to reconsider the overall economics of this transaction. Presently,
the Company is pursuing alternative uses of the property or its sale in which
event the Company believes it can recoup its cash cost, however, can give no
assurance in this regard.

5. CAPITALIZED CONSTRUCTION INTEREST

         As a result of construction of the hotel/casino/parking complex in
Black Hawk, Colorado, the Company began capitalizing interest expense during
1996. Capitalized interest through March 31, 1998 totaled approximately
$1,418,000 of which $513,000 related to the quarter ended March 31, 1998.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The following discussion should be read in conjunction with, and is
qualified in its entirety by the financial statements and the notes thereto
included elsewhere in this Report.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 COMPARED TO THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1997

         Total revenue of the Company decreased by $44,000 or 13% and total
costs and expenses increased by $235,000 or 80%. These factors when combined
with the increase in equity in earnings of the joint venture of approximately
$141,000 or 20% and the minority interests share of the Lodge Casino of
approximately $47,000 resulted in a decrease in income before income taxes of
approximately $91,000. The following is a discussion of the various changes in
the components of the Company's consolidated statements of operations for the
quarter ended March 31, 1998 as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1997.

         Revenues

         The Company's current quarter revenue decreased by $44,000 or 13% when
compared to the comparable quarter of 1997. The net decrease in the Company's
revenue is comprised of reductions in parking lot income of $31,000 or 41% and
interest income of $48,000 or 82% offset by increases in management fees of
$23,000 or 26% and rental income of $12,000 or 11%.

         Management fee income is computed based upon 11% of the defined volume
of the various departments of the Casino's operations reduced by defined
expenses. Usually, as the volume of business of GHV increases or decreases, the
management fee earned by the Company will increase or decrease accordingly. The
current period costs and expenses of the Casino increased approximately $431,000
or 7% while net revenue generated by the Casino increased by approximately
$705,000 or 10%. Accordingly, the management fee earned by the Company for the
current quarter, after elimination of the amount of such fee attributable to the
Company's 50% interest in the Joint Venture, increased over the prior quarter by
$23,000 or 26% to the comparable quarter of 1997.

         During March 1997, the Company gave formal notice to its joint venture
partner in GHV that effective November 1, 1997, parking would no longer be
available on Millsite 30. The Company anticipated a decline in its parking lot
operation revenue as a result of the termination of this agreement and while
construction commences on Millsite 30 for the overflow parking facility for the
Lodge. During 1998, a portion of Millsite 30 was available for parking and the
Company did receive parking fees from the joint venture. However, due to the
reduction in overall available parking for GHV by the Company, parking revenue
decreased by $31,000 or 41% when compared to the prior period.

         During the quarter, the Company and its joint venture partner were the
co-owners of the land underlying the GHV. The Joint Venture agreement requires
GHV to pay a monthly land rental fee equivalent to 7% of the net gaming revenues
of GHV. Rental income attributable to the land underlying the GHV is reported
after elimination of the amount of such fees attributable to the Company's 50%
interest in GHV. The Company's rental income for the current quarter, increased
by $12,127 or 11%, when compared to the comparable quarter of 1997. While net
gaming revenues of GHV were up as compared to the same period last year (as
discussed in more detail below), the overall impact on the Company's rental
income was not significant.



                                       7

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                         FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
                            OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

         The remaining portion of the Company's revenue is the result of
interest it receives on temporary cash investments. As the Company expends funds
on projects, interest income will decrease. During the first quarter of 1997,
the Company was retained by a Colorado casino (whose sole shareholder is an
officer, director and shareholder of the Company) to provide consulting services
on a month to month basis, at a rate of $5,000 per month. This agreement ceased
during the second quarter of 1997, therefore, there was no consulting income
related to this agreement for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, whereas $15,000
in consulting fees was earned in the comparable quarter of the 1997.

         Costs and Expenses

         The Company's current quarter costs and expenses increased by $235,000
or 80% when compared to the comparable quarter of 1997. The net increase in the
Company's costs and expenses are comprised of reductions in compensation and
related costs of $17,000 or 8% offset by increases in general and administrative
expenses of $115,000 or 135% and pre-opening costs related to the Lodge of
$137,000.

         Total compensation and related costs for the current quarter decreased
by approximately $17,000 or 8%, generally due to the decrease in salaries and
costs for an employee of the Company.

         The increase in general and administrative expenses of $115,000 or 135%
is principally due to an increase in: consulting fees of $56,000 or 100%; legal
fees of $33,000 or 155%; shareholder relations costs of $10,000 or 60%;
insurance of $13,000 or 100% and other net expenses of $3,000.

         During the current quarter the Company incurred $137,000 in pre-opening
costs associated with the Lodge. Pre-opening costs are those costs incurred by
the Lodge which are in connection with the preparation for opening and are not
directly attributable to the design or development of the land and / or the
building. Generally, such costs include, but are not limited to, payroll, office
supplies, janitorial services, costs related to job fairs, and other costs of
hiring employees. The Company anticipates pre-opening costs to increase during
the second quarter of 1998, as the opening of the Lodge approaches.

         Equity in Earnings of Joint Venture

         By virtue of the Company's 50% ownership of GHV, the Company is
required to record its share of the net earnings of GHV, after elimination of
intercompany transactions and other adjustments, as "Equity in Earnings of Joint
Venture." Although the Company receives other revenue from the joint venture, as
discussed above, equity in earnings of the joint venture accounts for
substantially all of the Company's income before income taxes. Summarized
financial information of the joint venture is provided in Note 3 to the
financial statements included within this report.

         During the three months ended March 31, 1998, GHV's total revenues
increased by $870,000 or 11%. However, when reduced by an increase in
promotional allowance of $165,000 or 33%, net revenues increased by $705,000 or
10%. Total costs and expenses of GHV increased by $431,000 or 6%. Accordingly,
the net result is an increase in the net income of GHV of $274,000 or 33% over
the comparable period of the preceding year.

         Management attributes the approximate $705,000 increase in net revenues
to an increase in net casino revenue (slot machines, table games and off track
betting) of $683,000 and an increase in net food and beverage revenue (net of
promotional allowance) of $22,000.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                         FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
                            OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

         The income statement of GHV (see note 3 above) includes classification
of costs and expenses by operating departments. When the operating departments
are aggregated, the most significant changes that comprise the net increase in
costs and expenses of $431,000 include, increases in food and beverage costs of
$102,000 or 31%; rent of $49,000 or 11%; insurance of $12,000 or 17%; gaming
taxes of $148,000 or 11%; contract labor of $101,000 or over 100%; operating
supplies of $14,000 or 14%; printing expense of $39,000 or over 100%; property
taxes of $15,000 or 38%; progressive jackpots of $64,000 or over 100%; slot
rental expense of $18,000 or 78%; management fees of $50,000 or 26%; loss on
sale of assets of $24,000 or 100%; and other net cost and expenses of $11,000.
These increases were offset by decreases in: postage of $11,000 or 50%; repairs
and maintenance of $17,000 or 36%; parking fees of $62,000 or 39%; depreciation
of $40,000 or 12%; poker food cost of $26,000 or 72%; interest expense of
$22,000 or 16% and marketing related expenses of $38,000 or 4%.

         A large part of GHV's success has been attributed to its on site
parking. During 1997 and into 1998, management increased dollars spent on target
marketing in order to compensate for the expected reduction in parking
availability due to the ongoing Lodge construction. Once the Lodge is fully
completed, parking availability for GHV will approximate 200 cars and parking
for the Lodge will approximate 700 cars. Additionally, with the completion of
the Business Improvement District's redesign and upgrade of Main Street in the
City of Black Hawk and the related infrastructure improvements; GHV has gained a
permanent bus stop, which is located directly in front of GHV.

         Management will continue to focus on retaining its existing customer
base and increasing repeat business of new customers. Additionally, the Company
will strive to enhance its product by providing customers with a user friendly
gaming environment coupled with the newest in gaming technology. In the opinion
of management the mild weather, the temporary decline in the number of available
gaming devices in the City of Black Hawk as well as the marketing strategies
discussed above have allowed the GHV to remain competitive when compared to the
comparable quarter of 1997. However, until the GHV parking garage is completed,
which is anticipated to be late in the second quarter of 1998, parking for GHV
will continue to be limited.

          In the opinion of management, GHV's operations for the three months
ended March 31, 1998, are competitive relative to other casinos in Black Hawk as
well as the other two Colorado gaming districts. GHV's adjusted gross proceeds
(AGP) (total gambling receipts less jackpots/winnings, less restocking moneys
for slot machines, plus moneys collected from table games and deposited with the
cashier) averages for gaming devices (slot machines and table games) remains in
excess of the overall gaming AGP averages for the state and the city of Black
Hawk.

         Net income per common share - basic and diluted

         Results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 yielded net
income per common share basic of $.10, based on weighted average shares
outstanding of 3,947,695. Earnings per common share basic for the comparable
period in 1997, was $.17 based on 2,662,034 weighted average shares outstanding.
In general, under SFAS 128, basic earnings per share gives effect to the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding while diluted earnings per
share gives effect to all potentially dilutive common shares (such as stock
options) that were outstanding during the period.

                            OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Net cash used in operating activities was $208,000 in the first quarter
of 1998 versus net cash provided by operating activities of $204,000 in the
first quarter of 1997. The principal reason for the decrease in cash provided by
operating activities is due to the collection of an income tax refund in 1997
with no comparable collection in 1998. As a result of the completion of the
acquisition of the other half of the GHV, the Company's cash flow from operating
activities will include the operations of the GHV. The Company has previously
reported the cash flow from GHV when it receives distributions as cash from
investing activities, however in the future these amounts will be reported as
cash generated from operating activities.

         Net cash used in investing activities for the first quarter of 1998 was
$8,470,000 and was primarily the result of payments for project development
costs associated with the LLC of $8,597,000 and other financing activities of
$73,000, offset by distributions from GHV of $200,000. Net cash used in
investing activities for the first quarter of 1997 was $2,249,000 and was
primarily the result of payments for project development costs associated with
the LLC of $2,751,000, other financing activities of $7,000, offset by
distributions from GHV of $509,000.

         The net cash provided by financing activities during the first quarter
of 1998 amounted to $8,695,000 and is primarily the result of draws against the
Wells Fargo Bank construction loan totaling $8,696,000 and other financing
activities of $1,700. The net cash used in financing activities during the first
quarter of 1997 amounted to $167,600 and is the result of the acquisition of
common stock "put" to the Company totaling $137,500 and payments on long-term
debt of $30,000.

         The Company's principal sources of cash flow consist of distributions
from GHV, cash generated from its rental and management operations and minority
interest contributions to the Company's majority owned subsidiary. As of March
31, 1998 the Company has working capital of approximately $648,000 (after
eliminating accrued expenses of the LLC of $3,335,000 to be financed under the
Wells Fargo Bank credit facility) as compared to $509,000 at December 31, 1997.

         The Company believes its current working capital position will be
sufficient to meet its short term requirements (taking into effect the purchase
of the other half of GHV- discussed below). However, any significant development
of other projects by the Company will require additional financing, other joint
venture partners, or both.

         As discussed previously, in December 1997 the Company entered into a
definitive agreement with Gilpin Ventures, Inc. (GVI), the Company's joint
venture partner in GHV to acquire the other half of the Gilpin Hotel Venture. On
April 24, 1998 the Company closed the transaction under the same terms
conditions previously announced. The financial terms consisted of the
acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of Gilpin Ventures, Inc. for
$5,000,000; a payment of $250,000 to an affiliate of GVI at closing for
termination of a consulting agreement and the purchase of an undivided 50%
interest in the land underlying the GHV Casino and in certain parcels across
Main Street from the Casino for $4,750,000.

         In order to complete the acquisitions discussed above, the Company
entered into a Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association
("Wells Fargo"). Some of the more important terms of the Credit Agreement are:
(i) the facility is a five year reducing revolving line of credit in the amount
of $20 million (approximately $13.5 million was drawn at closing to fund the
acquisitions described above and to pay existing mortgage debt against the
property purchased); (ii) the available balance of the facility will be used to
pay certain equipment debt, to pay for the third story of a parking garage under

construction across Main Street from the Gilpin Hotel Casino, and as discussed
above, with the balance (estimated to approximate $1,000,000) for working
capital; (iii) the facility bears interest at the rate of 75 basis points above
the prime rate (approximately 9.5% at March 31, 1998); (iv) beginning January 1,
1999, the maximum credit line available will be reduced by $500,000 per quarter
until April 24, 2001, when the outstanding balance of the facility will be due;
(v) the Credit Agreement contains a number of affirmative and negative covenants
which, among other things, requires the Company to maintain certain financial
ratios and refrain from certain actions without Wells Fargo's concurrence; and
(vi) substantially all of the assets of the Gilpin Hotel Venture, GVI and the
Company (except the Company's 75% interest in The Lodge Casino) are pledged as
security for repayment of the credit facility. The Credit Agreement also
contains customary events of default provisions.

    The Company believes its current working capital position coupled with the
increased profits and realization of certain economies of scale, which may
result from the acquisition of the other half of GHV as well as the remaining
balance on the revolving line of credit after payment of additional Lodge
capital contributions and GHV garage construction costs, will be sufficient to
meet the Company's short-term cash requirements which are operating expenses and
interest payments on indebtedness. However, any significant development of other
projects by the Company will require additional financing, other joint venture
partners, or both.

    The Company believes the LLC (in which it owns a 75% interest) will have
sufficient funding to complete construction of The Lodge Casino, budgeted at
approximately $72 million. The members of the LLC have contributed approximately
$28 million to the LLC and the LLC's credit facility is $40 million of which
approximately $22 million had been drawn through March 31, 1998. The Company
believes it will cover its remaining share of the total projected cost of The
Lodge Casino and start-up costs with the balance of the LLC's credit facility,
current working capital, funds from operation of the Gilpin Hotel Casino and
with a portion of the new credit facility discussed above.
