Report of Independent Accountants
To the Stockholder of Waterford Gaming Finance Corp.:
We have reviewed the condensed balance sheet of Waterford Gaming Finance
Corp. (the "Company") as of June 30, 1997, and the related condensed
statements of operations and retained earnings (deficit) for the three
months and six months ended June 30, 1997, and the related condensed
statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1997. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures
to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial
and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit
conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the
objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial
statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to the condensed financial statements referred to above for
them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the balance sheet as of December 31, 1996, and the related
statements of operations and retained earnings (deficit) and cash flows for
the period from November 6, 1996 (commencement of operations) to December
31, 1996 (not presented herein); and in our report dated April 17, 1997,
we expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. In our
opinion, the information set forth in the condensed balance sheet as of
December 31, 1996, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to
the balance sheet from which it has been derived.

(Unaudited)
_________
1. Basis of Presentation:
The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the Company's 1996 audited financial statements within the Company's
Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended, initially filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") File No. 333-17795
on April 29, 1997.
The unaudited interim financial statements include normal and recurring
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present
a fair statement of financial position as of June 30, 1997, and the results
of operations and retained earnings (deficit) for the three months and six
months ended June 30, 1997, and the related statement of cash flows for the
six months ended June 30, 1997. The Company was formed on October 22, 1996
and, accordingly, there are no comparative statements for the corresponding
three months and six months ending June 30, 1996. Results of operations for
the period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
the full year.
The following significant event has occurred subsequent to fiscal year 1996,
which requires disclosure in this interim report per Regulation S-X,
Rule 10-01, Paragraph(a)(5).
Effective as of May 15, 1997, the Company functioned as a co-issuer with its
parent, Waterford Gaming, L.L.C., to issue 12-3/4% senior notes payable
(the "Notes") which were registered with the Commission through a
Registration Statement on Form S-4 under the Securities Exchange Act of
1933. As a result, the Company is subject to the informational requirements
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

As a result of the foregoing factors, the Company's net income for the six

The Company is not expected to have significant operating activity. Funding
for future operations will come from the financial support of its parent
company.
