                          GLENDALE, CALIFORNIA 91203

                              September 18, 2000

Dear Stockholder:

   Last month, we mailed to you our proxy statement relating to the annual
meeting of stockholders scheduled for September 19, 2000 in Glendale,
California at 9:00 a.m. local time. The principal item to be considered and
voted upon by the stockholders at the annual meeting is a proposal to approve
and adopt the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 17, 2000, as
amended by the letter agreement dated August 22, 2000 (as so amended, the
"Merger Agreement"), by and among Pinnacle Entertainment, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), PH Casino Resorts, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("PHCR"), and Pinnacle Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation and
wholly-owned subsidiary of PHCR ("Pinnacle Acq Corp"), pursuant to which PHCR,
a subsidiary of Harveys Casino Resorts (an affiliate of Colony Capital LLC),
would acquire the Company. Upon the closing of the merger, holders of the
Company's common stock (other than shares of the Company's common stock owned
by the Company or any of its subsidiaries, Pinnacle Acq Corp and stockholders
who have perfected their appraisal rights in accordance with Delaware law and
certain shares of the Company's common stock to be contributed to PHCR by
certain members of the Company's senior management) will be entitled to
receive $24.00 per share in cash, without interest, plus up to an additional
$1.00 per share in cash, contingent on the sale by the Company of the
Company's 97 acres of surplus land in Inglewood, California under certain
circumstances.

   Our proxy statement included information about a purported stockholder
class action that had been filed against the Company and its directors
challenging the proposed merger. On behalf of the entire Board of Directors, I
am pleased to advise you that we have reached a tentative settlement of that
lawsuit. The settlement is subject to the execution of a definitive settlement
agreement and court approval of that agreement.

   The terms of the settlement require that certain provisions of the Merger
Agreement be amended. PHCR and Pinnacle Acq Corp have consented to such
amendments. Accordingly, we are supplementing our proxy statement to provide
you with information regarding these amendments, which provide for (i) an
increase in the permitted budget for completing the Company's Belterra Casino
Resort in Indiana; (ii) extensions of the deadlines set forth in the Merger
Agreement for approval of the proposed merger by the Company's stockholders,
the opening of the Belterra Casino Resort and the closing of the sale of the
Company's 97 acres of surplus land in Inglewood, California; (iii) a reduction
in the amount of the termination fee which the Company is obligated to pay
under certain circumstances; (iv) addition of a provision permitting Pinnacle
Acq Corp, at its option, to extend the outside closing date of the proposed
merger; and (v) elimination of the requirement that a letter of credit be
obtained to secure the surviving entity's obligation to pay any contingent
payment in connection with the sale of the Inglewood land. The settlement also
requires that the Company be permitted under the Merger Agreement to pay
attorney's fees and costs to the plaintiff's counsel. A copy of the amendment
to the Merger Agreement, dated as of September 15, 2000 (the "Second
Amendment"), is attached to the accompanying Supplement as Annex A.

   The enclosed Supplement is important and we encourage you to give it your
careful consideration. In order to give you an opportunity to evaluate it, we
will not submit the proposed merger to a vote when the annual meeting is
convened on September 19, 2000. Instead, the only action that will be taken at
such meeting will be to adjourn the meeting until October 10, 2000, on which
date the annual meeting will reconvene at the Hilton Hotel, 100 West Glenoaks
Boulevard, Glendale, California at 9:30 a.m. local time.

   In addition to the accompanying Supplement, we are enclosing another proxy
card. If you have already voted by using the original proxy card we sent you
last month, you do not need to vote again. However, if you have not already
voted or if you wish to change your vote before the annual meeting, you should
use the enclosed
<PAGE>

proxy card. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS, INCLUDING ALL OF THE MEMBERS OF THE
SPECIAL COMMITTEE OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS, UNANIMOUSLY, WITH THE DIRECTORS
WHO ARE MEMBERS OF MANAGEMENT ABSTAINING, RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE
"FOR" THE APPROVAL AND ADOPTION OF THE MERGER AGREEMENT, AS AMENDED BY THE
SECOND AMENDMENT.

   Please do not send us any stock certificates representing shares of the
Company's common stock with your proxy card. You will receive written
instructions regarding the surrender of your stock certificates and receipt of
payment for your shares of the Company's common stock after the proposed
merger is completed.

                                          Sincerely,

                                          /s/ R.D. Hubbard

                     PROXY STATEMENT DATED AUGUST 23, 2000
                                  RELATING TO
                        ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
                       TO BE HELD ON SEPTEMBER 19, 2000

                               ----------------

                              GENERAL INFORMATION

   Pinnacle Entertainment, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Pinnacle" or the
"Company"), hereby supplements its Proxy Statement dated August 23, 2000 (the
"Proxy Statement") furnished to Pinnacle's stockholders in connection with the
Annual Meeting scheduled for September 19, 2000 at 9:00 a.m. local time at the
Hilton Hotel, 100 West Glenoaks Boulevard, Glendale, California.

   This Supplement should be read in conjunction with the Proxy Statement. All
capitalized terms used but not defined in this Supplement have the meanings
given to them in the Proxy Statement. If you need another copy of the Proxy
Statement, please contact the Corporate Secretary of the Company at the
address appearing at the top of this Supplement.

   This Supplement is first being mailed to stockholders on or about September
20, 2000.

                   INFORMATION REGARDING THE ANNUAL MEETING

   The Annual Meeting will be convened on the date and time, and at the
location, specified under "General Information" above. However, in light of
the tentative settlement described under "Litigation Settlement" below, the
Company will not submit the Pinnacle Merger to a vote when the Annual Meeting
is convened on September 19, 2000. Instead, the only action that will be taken
at such meeting will be to adjourn the meeting until October 10, 2000, on
which date the Annual Meeting will reconvene at the Hilton Hotel, 100 West
Glenoaks Boulevard, Glendale, California at 9:30 a.m. local time. The Record
Date for the Annual Meeting, the reconvened Annual Meeting on October 10, 2000
and any further adjournments or postponements remains the close of business on
August 8, 2000.

   Stockholders who are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, and who have
not already voted or who wish to change their vote, can use the enclosed Proxy
Card. Stockholders who have already voted by using the Proxy Card sent to them
with the Proxy Statement need not vote again if they do not wish to change
their vote. As of September 18, 2000, proxies representing approximately 73%
of the outstanding shares of Pinnacle Common Stock had been voted in favor of
the Pinnacle Merger. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS, INCLUDING ALL OF THE MEMBERS OF
THE SPECIAL COMMITTEE OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS, UNANIMOUSLY, WITH THE
DIRECTORS WHO ARE MEMBERS OF MANAGEMENT ABSTAINING, RECOMMENDS THAT
STOCKHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THE APPROVAL AND ADOPTION OF THE MERGER AGREEMENT, AS
AMENDED BY THE SECOND AMENDMENT (AS DEFINED BELOW).

   You can vote by proxy or in person at the reconvened Annual Meeting on
October 10, 2000. If you return your signed Proxy Card before the reconvened
Annual Meeting, the proxy holders will vote your shares as you direct. If you
return your Proxy Card and do not specify on the card how you want your shares
voted, the proxy holders will vote them FOR the approval and adoption of the
Merger Agreement, as amended by the Second Amendment, and FOR the election of
each director nominee listed on the Proxy Card. Your failure to return a Proxy
Card will have the same effect as a vote against approval and adoption of the
Merger Agreement, as amended by the Second Amendment.

                                       1
<PAGE>

   The Company's Board of Directors does not presently intend to bring any
business before the Annual Meeting other than that referred to in the Proxy
Statement, as modified by this Supplement. Since the Company did not receive
notice prior to August 15, 2000 of any other matter to come before the Annual
Meeting, as to any such other matter that may properly come before the Annual
Meeting, including any motion made for adjournment of the Annual Meeting, by
signing the Proxy Cards, stockholders confer discretionary authority on the
proxies (who are persons designated by the Board of Directors) to vote all
shares covered by the Proxy Cards on any such matter.

                             LITIGATION SETTLEMENT

   Under the caption "The Pinnacle Merger--Legal Proceedings" on page 78 of
the Proxy Statement, information was provided regarding a purported
stockholder class action filed against the Company and each of its directors
by Leta Hilliard in the Superior Court of the State of California. That
information summarized the status of the lawsuit as of August 23, 2000, the
date of the Proxy Statement.

   On September 15, 2000, plaintiff and defendants, with the consent of PHCR
and Pinnacle Acq Corp, entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with respect
to settlement of the case (the "Settlement MOU"). The settlement is subject to
the execution of a definitive settlement agreement and court approval of that
agreement.

   The terms of the settlement require that certain provisions of the Merger
Agreement be amended. The Company is mailing this Supplement to provide
information about such amendments, which are set forth in the Second Amendment
to Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of September 15, 2000 (the "Second
Amendment"). The following description of the terms of the Second Amendment is
qualified in its entirety by the complete text thereof, which is incorporated
herein by reference and a copy of which is attached hereto as Annex A.

   Under the terms of the tentative settlement:

  .  The condition to the Pinnacle Merger set forth in the Merger Agreement
     (and described on pages 7-8, 88 and 89 of the Proxy Statement) which
     requires that all material phases of the Belterra Casino Resort (other
     than the golf course and performance theater) be substantially completed
     and opened to the public by not later than September 15, 2000, and that
     the costs associated with the Belterra Casino Resort not be, in the
     aggregate, more than $207 million, has been modified to (i) extend the
     date by which the Belterra Casino Resort must be so completed and opened
     to November 15, 2000 and (ii) increase the permitted costs associated
     therewith to $217 million (excluding costs with respect to which the
     Company has been fully reimbursed by its insurers and costs to which the
     Company certifies in writing its good faith belief that it expects such
     reimbursement to occur). These modifications are intended primarily to
     accommodate the additional time and expenses that are necessary to
     complete the Belterra Casino Resort in light of the accident involving
     the Miss Belterra.

  .  The date set forth in the Merger Agreement prior to which the Inglewood
     Sale must close in order for the Company's stockholders to be eligible
     to receive the Contingent Payment (which is described on pages 3-4 and
     82-84 of the Proxy Statement) has been extended from December 31, 2001
     to March 1, 2002. This extension of the outside closing date for the
     Inglewood Sale is intended to increase the possibility that stockholders
     will receive the Contingent Payment (assuming that the proceeds from the
     Inglewood Sale satisfy the requirements under the Merger Agreement for
     receipt of the Contingent Payment).

  .  Pinnacle Acq Corp may, at its option, extend the outside closing date of
     the Pinnacle Merger set forth in the Merger Agreement (and described on
     pages 8 and 94 of the Proxy Statement) after which the Company and
     Pinnacle Acq Corp may terminate the Merger Agreement if the Pinnacle
     Merger has not closed by such date from January 15, 2001 to a later date
     which is on or before March 16, 2001 (in which event the two-month and
     six-month extensions of such outside closing date for regulatory
     approvals run from such later date rather than January 15, 2001).

                                       2
<PAGE>

  .  The Company has agreed to pay an aggregate of $1,850,000, plus interest
     accruing at a rate of 5%, as attorney's fees and costs to the
     plaintiff's counsel, subject to court approval. PHCR and Pinnacle Acq
     Corp have consented to such payment by the Company in accordance with
     the Settlement MOU. The Settlement MOU provides that the attorney's fees
     and costs will be paid within 48 hours of receipt of the court's
     executed order approving the settlement, regardless of whether the
     Pinnacle Merger has closed, subject to the agreement of the plaintiff's
     counsel to repay all such amounts, plus interest thereon, in the event
     the award of fees is reduced or reversed on appeal.

  .  The Termination Fee (as described on pages 9-10 and 95 of the Proxy
     Statement) which the Company is required to pay to Pinnacle Acq Corp
     under certain circumstances has been reduced from $25 million to
     $20 million.

  .  The requirement set forth in Section 10.11(d) of the Merger Agreement
     (included at page A-46 of the Proxy Statement) that the Pinnacle
     Surviving Corporation obtain a letter of credit to secure its obligation
     to pay the Contingent Payment has been eliminated.

  .  As indicated above under "Information Regarding the Annual Meeting," the
     Company will not submit the Merger Agreement to a vote at the Annual
     Meeting on September 19, 2000. Instead, in order to give its
     stockholders an opportunity to evaluate the information contained in
     this Supplement, the Company will adjourn the Annual Meeting on such
     date until October 10, 2000. In connection therewith, the date after
     which the Merger Agreement permits Pinnacle Acq Corp to terminate the
     Merger Agreement if it has not been approved by the Company's
     stockholders (as described on pages 8 and 94 of the Proxy Statement) has
     been extended to October 13, 2000.

   In addition, the Merger Agreement has been amended to provide that the name
of the Pinnacle Surviving Corporation shall remain "Pinnacle Entertainment,
Inc." upon consummation of the Pinnacle Merger. Such name may be changed
thereafter in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Incorporation
and as provided by law.

               SECOND AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

   This SECOND AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this "Second
Amendment") is made and entered into as of this 15th day of September, 2000,

                                R E C I T A L S

   WHEREAS, PHCR, Pinnacle and Pinnacle Acq Corp entered into that certain
Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of April 17, 2000 (the "Original Merger
Agreement"), as amended by that certain letter agreement dated August 22, 2000
(the "First Amendment" and, the Original Merger Agreement as so amended by the
First Amendment, the "Merger Agreement");

   WHEREAS, a putative class action lawsuit against Pinnacle and its directors
alleging claims related to the Pinnacle Merger is pending in the Superior
Court of the State of California (the "Lawsuit"); and

   WHEREAS, Pinnacle, with the consent of PHCR and Pinnacle Acq Corp, and the
plaintiff in the Lawsuit (the "Plaintiff") have reached an agreement in
principle for resolution thereof, the substance of which is contained in a
Memorandum of Understanding dated as of September 15, 2000 between Pinnacle
and Plaintiff's counsel in the Lawsuit (the "MOU") which requires, among other
things, the amendments to the Merger Agreement set forth in this Second
Amendment.

   NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as
follows:

   1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined
shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement.

   2. Condition Regarding Indiana Project.

   (a) In light of the accident on July 31, 2000 involving Pinnacle's Miss
Belterra riverboat casino (the "Miss Belterra Accident"), Section 8.2(k) of
the Merger Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
following:

     "(k) Indiana Project. (i) All material phases of the Indiana Project
  (other than the golf course and performance theater) shall have been
  substantially completed and opened to the public by not later than November
  15, 2000; and (ii) the costs associated with the Indiana Project shall not
  be, in the aggregate, more than $217 million (excluding costs with respect
  to which Pinnacle has been fully reimbursed by its insurers and costs to
  which Pinnacle certifies in writing its good faith belief that it expects
  such reimbursement to occur), and, in all other respects, the Indiana
  Project (other than the golf course and performance theater) shall have
  been completed in substantial conformity with the written budgets, plans
  and policies relating to the Indiana Project provided to Pinnacle Acq Corp
  prior to April 17, 2000."

   (b) PHCR and Pinnacle Acq Corp agree that if Section 8.2(k) (as set forth
in paragraph 2 of this Second Amendment) of the Merger Agreement is satisfied,
then PHCR and Pinnacle Acq Corp shall not assert that the conditions set forth
in Sections 8.2(a), 8.2(b) and 8.2(c) of the Merger Agreement are not
satisfied solely by reason of the fact that (i) the Indiana Project (other
than the golf course and performance theater) was not substantially completed
and opened to the public by not later than September 15, 2000 and (ii) the
costs associated with the Indiana Project were, in the aggregate, more than
$207 million.

  have occurred on or prior to the Outside Termination Date other than due to
  the failure of the party seeking to terminate this Agreement to perform its
  obligations under this Agreement required to be performed at or before the
  Closing; provided, however, that, Pinnacle Acq Corp may, at its option, (x)
  extend the Outside Termination Date for up to six months if (i) it can
  demonstrate to Pinnacle's reasonable good faith satisfaction that there is
  a reasonable likelihood that it will receive the Gaming Approvals by the
  Outside Termination Date, and (ii) Pinnacle Acq Corp delivers to Pinnacle
  commitment letter(s) and highly confident letter(s) reflecting amounts that
  are at least sufficient to cover the Financing with expiration dates that
  are at least coextensive with the date of such extension (and "Extended
  Commitment"); or (y) extend the Outside Termination Date for up to two
  months if the parties shall have received from any responsible individual
  of each Gaming Authority (i) the approval of which is required to be
  obtained to permit Pinnacle Acq Corp and Harveys Acq Corp to consummate the
  Pinnacle Merger and Harveys Merger, respectively and (ii) which has not
  prior to the Outside Termination Date finally determined whether such
  approval shall be granted, reasonable assurance (written or oral) that a
  hearing is scheduled or can reasonably be expected to be scheduled prior to
  or on the date which is the two-month anniversary of the Outside
  Termination Date (as used herein, "Outside Termination Date" shall mean the
  date elected by Pinnacle Acq Corp during the period commencing on and
  including January 15, 2001 and ending on and including March 16, 2001;
  Pinnacle Acq Corp may elect one or more Outside Termination Dates at any

  Termination Date retroactively and that any such Outside Termination Date
  shall not occur prior to the date of any previously designated Outside

deleted in its entirety.

   8. Stockholder Meeting Date. The date of "September 29, 2000" set forth in
