Affinity Gaming Announces Temporary Closure of Terrible’s St. Jo Frontier Casino Due to Missouri River Flooding

Las Vegas, NV — June 29, 2011 — Affinity Gaming, LLC (the “Company”) announced today that due to flooding from the Missouri River, the Company has temporarily closed until further notice its Terrible’s St. Jo Frontier Casino riverboat in St. Joseph, Missouri.  The Company is closely monitoring the situation and is in contact with local and state officials to ensure that the Missouri River is stable with receding water levels before re-opening the facility.  Affinity Gaming will re-open Terrible’s St. Jo when it is certain that its patrons and employees will be completely secure.

“The casino cannot begin pumping water out of the parking lot until the river drops below 27 feet,” said Craig Travers, the Company’s Regional Vice President and General Manager.  “According to information from the National Weather Service, the river levels are not expected to drop below that mark until at least the weekend, so opportunities to re-open the casino will be evaluated as information becomes available.”

“Craig and his team have done a great job ensuring the safety of our employees and valued guests, which is the Company’s primary concern,” said David Ross, Chief Executive Officer.  “The team has also taken steps to protect our assets from the floodwaters.  We will continue to monitor the Missouri River conditions closely and will only re-open when we can be assured that the riverboat is secure.”

In addition, the Company announced that its Terrible’s Mark Twain Casino in La Grange, Missouri had been temporarily closed on Monday due to local power failure caused by a regional storm.
