Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as special New York counsel to MTR Gaming Group, Inc. (the “Company”) in connection with the filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Act”), on Form S-4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Registration Statement”) of up to $567,825,000 in aggregate principal amount of 11.50% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2019 of the Company and the related guarantees to be issued in exchange for an equal aggregate principal amount of the Company’s outstanding 11.50% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2019 and the related guarantees.

 

The statements set forth in the Registration Statement under the heading “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”, insofar as such statements purport to summarize the U.S. federal income tax laws, regulations or legal conclusions referred to therein, fairly summarize in all material respects the matters described therein.
