Item 1.01.                                          Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 13, 2009, MTR Gaming Group, Inc. (“Company”) issued $10.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 12.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2014 (the “Additional Notes”) at 96.000% of the aggregate principal amount of Additional Notes. The offering of the Additional Notes was made in the United States to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and to persons outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Additional Notes form a part of the same series as the Company’s outstanding 12.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2014.  The aggregate principal amount of outstanding notes of this series, including the Additional Notes, is $260.0 million.  The foregoing description of the Additional Notes is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Additional Note, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.  A copy of the press release describing the closing of the offering of the Additional Notes is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein to this Item 1.01.

On October 13, 2009, the Company also executed the Limited Consent and Seventh Amendment to Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Seventh Amendment”) by and among the Company, Mountaineer Park, Inc., Presque Isle Downs, Inc., Scioto Downs, Inc., Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as agent bank and requisite lenders.  The Seventh Amendment amends the Company’s existing senior secured credit facility to provide for $10 million of revolving borrowing capacity and permits the Company to issue the Additional Notes.  The Company’s Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, as amended from time to time, including by the Seventh Amendment, is referred to herein as the “Amended Credit Facility”.  Commitments under the Amended Credit Facility will reduce by $5.5 million in December 2009.  In addition, the Amended Credit Facility requires the Company to permanently repay amounts outstanding, and reduce the commitment thereunder, with the proceeds from certain asset sales (other than in connection with sales of non-core assets) and insurance from events of loss, the incurrence of debt or sales of capital stock.  The maturity date of the Amended Facility is March 31, 2010. The foregoing description of the Seventh Amendment is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Seventh Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
