Presentation to the Special Committee
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         The following pages contain material provided to the Special Committee
of the Board of Directors (the "Committee") of Pinnacle Entertainment, Inc.
("Pinnacle" or the "Company") by Jefferies & Company, Inc. ("Jefferies") for the
purpose of evaluating the offer by Colony Capital, Inc. ("Colony" or the
"Acquiror") to acquire Pinnacle.

         The accompanying material was prepared on a confidential basis solely
for use in connection with an oral presentation to the Committee and not with a
view towards complying with disclosure standards under state and federal
securities laws. The information contained in this presentation was based upon
publicly available information obtained by Jefferies or information furnished by
Pinnacle. Jefferies has relied, without independent investigation or
verification, on the accuracy, completeness and fair presentation of all such
information, and the conclusions contained herein are conditioned upon such
information (whether written or oral) being accurate, complete and fair in all
respects.

         All budgets, projections, financial analyses, reports and other
information with respect to the Company's operations contained herein have been
prepared by the management of the Company or are derived from such budgets,
projections, financial analyses, reports and other information which involve
numerous and significant subjective determinations made by such managers. The
estimates, budgets and projections contained herein may or may not be achieved
and differences between projected results and those actually achieved may be
material. With respect to the Company's financial projections examined by
Jefferies, Jefferies assumed that they were reasonably prepared on bases
reflecting the best currently available estimates and good faith judgments of
the managers of the Company as to the future performance of the Company and that
the Company will perform in accordance with such projections for all periods
specified therein. No representation or warranty, expressed or implied, is made
as to the accuracy, completeness or fairness of such information and nothing
contained herein is, or shall be relied upon as, a promise or representation,
whether as to the past or the future. Neither Jefferies nor any of its advisors
or accountants takes any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any
of the accompanying material. Jefferies has not been requested to, and did not
make an independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets or liabilities
(contingent or otherwise) of the Company or the Acquiror, nor has Jefferies been
furnished with any such evaluations or appraisals.

         The preparation of the material contained herein involves various
determinations as to the most appropriate and relevant methods of financial
analyses and the application of those methods to particular circumstances and,
therefore, such an opinion is not readily susceptible to summary description.
Furthermore, Jefferies did not attribute any particular weight to any analysis
or factor considered by it, but rather made qualitative judgments as to the
significance and relevance of each analysis and factor. Accordingly, Jefferies'
analyses must be considered as a whole. Considering any portion of such analyses
and of the factors considered, without considering all analyses and factors,
could create a misleading or incomplete view of the process underlying the
conclusions expressed herein. In its analyses, Jefferies made many assumptions
with respect to industry performance, general business and economic conditions
and other matters, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Any
estimates contained in these analyses are not necessarily indicative of actual
values or predictive of future results or values, which may be significantly
more or less favorable than as set forth herein. In addition, analyses relating
to the value of businesses do not purport to be appraisals or to reflect the
prices at which businesses actually may be sold.

         These materials are for the use of the Committee only and may not be
used for any other purpose without Jefferies' written consent. These materials
do not constitute an opinion of fairness with respect to the offer by Colony nor
a recommendation to any holder of the Company's common stock as to whether to
tender such holder's shares or as to how such person should vote with respect to
the Transaction.

Discounted Cash Flow Analysis
===============================================================================
Overview of Calculation

 -- Discounting Pinnacle's projected distributable cash flows to arrive at a
    present value provides an indication of value

 -- Distributed cash flow is calculated as follows: net income for the next five
    years plus projected depreciation, amortization and other non-cash expenses
    minus projected capital expenditures plus net changes in working capital
    plus interest expense, net of the interest tax shield

 -- In order to calculate Pinnacle's distributable cash flows, the discounted
    cash flow analysis utilized projections that were derived from management's
    budget for 2000 and discussion with management regarding the long-term
    outlook for the Company's properties

 -- The terminal value (the value of distributable cash flows beyond five years)
    was calculated by capitalizing year five distributable cash flow using
    growth rates ranging from 2.0% to 3.0%
    --  Considers long-term inflation and internal growth
    --  Considers comparable company forward EBITDA multiples

 -- The cash flows for the five years and the terminal value were discounted to
    their present values at a weighted average cost of capital (derived from the
    capital asset pricing model) in a range from 12.0% to 13.0% to determine an
    indication of equity value
    --  Considers required rates of return on equity
    --  Considers cost of debt and amount of leverage
