1.   BUSINESS

     Elgin Riverboat Resort - Riverboat Casino ("Joint Venture"), doing 
     business as the Grand Victoria Casino, was formed in December 1992, as a 
     partnership, under a Joint Venture Agreement between Nevada Landing 
     Partnership and RBG, L.P., in which each partner owns a fifty percent 
     interest.

     The Joint Venture is licensed by the Illinois Gaming Board ("IGB") to own
     and operate a riverboat casino on the Fox River in Elgin, Illinois.  The
     original license, issued on October 6, 1994, was valid for a three-year
     term. Subsequent to the initial three-year term, the license has been
     renewed for one-year periods on an annual basis.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     CASINO REVENUES 

     In accordance with industry practice, the Joint Venture recognizes as
     casino revenues the net win from gaming activities, which is the difference
     between gaming wins and losses.

     PROMOTIONAL ALLOWANCES

     The retail value of admissions, food and beverage, and other complimentary
     items furnished to customers without charge is included in gross revenue
     and then deducted as promotional allowances.  Additionally, the estimated
     costs of providing such promotional allowances have been included in casino
     expenses as follows:

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED

     PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

     Property, improvements and equipment are stated at cost.  The Joint Venture
     computes depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method over
     the estimated useful lives of the assets.  The estimated useful lives are

          Furniture, fixtures and 
          equipment, gaming and computer equipment     5-7 Years
</TABLE>

     RESERVE FOR SLOT CLUB REDEMPTION

     The Joint Venture has accrued for the total liability of all points earned,
     but not redeemed by slot club members.

     INCOME TAXES

     The financial statements of the Joint Venture do not reflect a provision 
     for income taxes because the partners are required to recognize their 
     proportionate share of the Joint Venture's income in their individual 
     tax returns.

     USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally 
     accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and 
     assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities 
     and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the 
     financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses 
     during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those 
     estimates.

5.   FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     because of the short maturity of these instruments. 

6.   LEASES

     In accordance with the Ground Lease and Development Agreement, as 
     amended, (the "Agreement") the Joint Venture leases land for a term of 
     ten years commencing with the issuance of the IGB license, with the 
     right to renew the Agreement for successive five year terms, not to 
     exceed a total lease term of thirty years. Additionally, the Agreement 
     provides an option to purchase such land at fair market value at anytime 
     during the lease term subject to the construction of certain other 
     capital projects by the Joint Venture.  The Agreement requires 
     annual lease payments equal to the greater of (i) $107,195 or (ii) three 
     percent of the Joint Venture's annual net operating income, as defined.

     During the construction of the riverboat casino facility, certain costs 
     were incurred by the Joint Venture on behalf of the City of Elgin (the 
     "City") which will be utilized to offset the future percentage rent 
     payments described in (ii) above.  The remaining unrecovered costs as of 
     December 31, 1998 and 1997 were $182,620 and $913,098, respectively, and 
     are included in prepaid expenses and other assets.

7.   COMMITMENTS

     Pursuant to an agreement with the City of Elgin, the Joint Venture has 
     guaranteed that the City shall receive at least $500,000 annually 
     resulting from a combination of lease payments and admission taxes.  For 
     each of the three years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, the 
     Joint Venture has paid amounts in excess of the guarantee.  
     Additionally, the Agreement requires the Joint Venture to pay the City 
     $350,000 per year, for five years to defray additional law enforcement 
     costs estimated to be incurred by the City.

     Pursuant to the Fox River Trust Agreement, entered into on July 20, 
     1993, the Joint Venture has agreed to make certain payments to a trust 
     fund for the benefit of the Fox River.  Annual contributions of $500,000 
     commenced on October 6, 1995, the initial anniversary date of the 
     issuance of the IGB license, and will continue for twelve successive 
     years.

     The Joint Venture has agreed to contribute to both Kane County and to a 
     foundation that has been established for the benefit of educational, 
     environmental and economic development programs in the region.  The 
     total commitment is equal to 20% of adjusted net operating income 
     ("ANOI"), as defined, after the cumulative after tax ANOI exceeds the 
     Joint Venture's total investment cost, as defined, incurred in 
     connection with the development of the riverboat casino facility.  This 
     commitment must be paid within 120 days of the end of the fiscal year 
     for which it has been calculated.  During 1996, ANOI exceeded the Joint
     Venture's total investment costs and the Joint Venture began accruing for
     this donation expense.  Donation expense for the years ended December 31,
     1998, 1997, and 1996 were $19,177,996, $23,993,096 and $12,219,654, 
     respectively.
     
8.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     During 1996, the employment of certain key employees of the Joint 
     Venture was transferred to one of the partners of the Joint Venture.  
     Salary, bonus and related taxes are paid by the Joint Venture partner.  
     The Joint Venture partner is then reimbursed by the Joint Venture for 
     these expenses.

9.   PROFIT SHARING PLAN

     The Joint Venture contributes to a defined contribution plan which 
     provides for contributions in accordance with the plan document.  The 
     plans cover substantially all employees.  The Joint Venture contributes 
     a set dollar amount to all eligible employees as well as a matching 
     contribution of 25% of employee contributions limited to specified dollar
     amount as stated in the plan document. Joint Venture contributions to the
     plan amounted to $392,740, $293,261 and $211,051 in 1998, 1997 and 1996, 
     respectively.
