ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

         On June 9, 1995, Crown Casino Corporation (the "Company") closed the
sale of a 50% interest in its St. Charles Gaming Company, Inc. subsidiary
("SCGC") to Louisiana Riverboat Gaming Partnership ("LRGP").  LRGP is a joint
venture owned 50% by Casino America, Inc. and 50% by Louisiana Downs, Inc., an
Edward J. DeBartolo company, and owns the Isle of Capri casino in Bossier City,
Louisiana.  As a result, the Lake Charles, Louisiana riverboat casino project,
whose site has been under construction since March 1995, is now owned equally
by the Company and LRGP.

         The purchase price for 50% of the SCGC stock sold by the Company was
$21 million, payable over five years, plus a warrant entitling the Company to
purchase up to 416,667 shares of Casino America common stock at an exercise
price of $12 per share.  The purchase price was negotiated at arms-length by
the parties to the Agreement.  The casino project is being managed by Casino
America and will be the fourth Isle of Capri themed property.  The casino is
expected to open in the Summer of 1995.

ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS.

         Also on June 9, 1995, the Company obtained a waiver from its senior
lender for the extension of the maturity date of its senior debt, which became
due on June 5, 1995.  The waiver extends the maturity date of the Company's
senior debt to the earlier of (1) the final approval or disapproval by the
Louisiana Office of State Police, Riverboat Gaming Division, of the anticipated
new $30 million financing between the Company's senior lender and LRGP and
SCGC, and (2) July 31, 1995.  In connection with the waiver, LRGP has
guaranteed the repayment of the Company's existing senior debt.  As previously
reported, LRGP and SCGC anticipate closing the $30 million financing prior to
July 31, 1995.

                        PRO-FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION


                              SALE OF 50% OF SCGC

On June 9, 1995, Crown Casino Corporation ("Crown") closed the sale of a 50%
interest in its St. Charles Gaming Company, Inc. subsidiary ("SCGC") to
Louisiana Riverboat Gaming Partnership ("LRGP").  LRGP is a joint venture owned
50% by Casino America, Inc. and 50% by Louisiana Downs, Inc., an Edward J.
DeBartolo company, and owns the Isle of Capri casino in Bossier City,
Louisiana.  As a result, the Lake Charles, Louisiana riverboat casino project,
whose site has been under construction since March 1995, is now owned equally
by Crown and LRGP.

The purchase price for 50% of the SCGC stock sold by Crown was $21 million,
payable over five years, plus a warrant entitling Crown to purchase up to
416,667 shares of Casino America common stock at an exercise price of $12 per
share.  The purchase price was negotiated at arms-length by the parties to the
Agreement.  The casino project is being managed by Casino America and will be
the fourth Isle of Capri themed property.  The casino is expected to open in
the Summer of 1995.

Also on June 9, 1995, SCGC obtained a waiver from its senior lender for the
extension of the maturity date of its senior debt, which became due on June 5,
1995.  The waiver extends the maturity date of SCGC's senior debt to the
earlier of (1) the final approval or disapproval by the Louisiana Office of
State Police, Riverboat Gaming Division, of the anticipated new $30 million
financing between SCGC's senior lender and LRGP and SCGC, and (2) July 31,
1995.  In connection with the waiver, LRGP has guaranteed the repayment of
SCGC's existing senior debt.  LRGP and SCGC anticipate closing the $30 million
financing prior to July 31, 1995.

SCGC was acquired by Crown on June 25, 1993.  The financial results of SCGC
prior to it being acquired by Crown are not significant and have not been
reflected in the following Pro-Forma Statement of Operations for the year ended
April 30, 1994.

                              ACQUISITION OF GEMS

On December 13, 1993 Crown acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of
Gaming Entertainment Management Services, Inc. ("GEMS"), a Nevada corporation
which was organized on September 22, 1992 for the purpose of developing a hotel
and casino project in Las Vegas, Nevada known as the Desert Winds Hotel and
Casino.  GEMS via contract had the right to purchase an 18.6 acre parcel of
land in Las Vegas located on the southeast corner of Flamingo and Arville
across the street from the Gold Coast Hotel and Casino.  The option was
exercised and the land was purchased in June 1994.  GEMS has no operations
other than its development of the Desert Winds project.  In connection with the
transaction the Company issued 850,000 shares of restricted common stock to the
GEMS shareholders and issued 35,000 shares of restricted common stock to a
company as a finder's fee.

                         PRO-FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following pro-forma consolidated balance sheet of Crown as of January 31,
1995 gives effect to the sale of 50% of Crown's interest in SCGC as if the sale
was consummated on January 31, 1995.  The GEMS acquisition has already been
reflected in the historical consolidated balance sheet of Crown at such date.

The following pro-forma consolidated statements of operations of Crown for the
nine months ended January 31, 1995 and for the year ended April 30, 1994 give
effect to the sale of a 50% interest in SCGC by Crown as if such sale had
occurred on May 1, 1993.  The pro-forma consolidated statement of operations
for the year ended April 30, 1994 also gives effect to the acquisition of GEMS
under the purchase method of accounting as if it had occurred on May 1, 1993.
The pro-forma information is based on the historical financial statements of
Crown, SCGC and GEMS giving effect to the transactions described above and the
adjustments as described in the accompanying notes to the pro-forma condensed
consolidated financial statements and may not be indicative of the results that
actually would have occurred had the sale or acquisition taken place on the
date indicated or the results which may be obtained in the future.

The sale of a 50% interest in SCGC by Crown causes Crown's remaining 50%
interest in SCGC to be accounted for under the equity method of accounting as
opposed to consolidating such results.  Accordingly, all assets and
liabilities, as well as revenues and expenses, of SCGC have been removed from
Crown's historical consolidated financial statements.  For balance sheet
purposes, Crown's remaining 50% interest in SCGC is reflected in the
"Investment in SCGC" account.  Similarly, Crown's 50% interest in the
operations of SCGC have been reflected in the "Equity in loss of SCGC" account
in the accompanying Pro-Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations.  However,
as noted below, since the realization of the gain on the sale of the 50%
interest in SCGC is not as yet reasonably assured, all of SCGC's loss (ie. not
just Crown's 50%) is recognized in the "Equity in loss of SCGC" account in the
accompanying Pro-Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations.  The calculation
of Crown's (i) deferred gain on the sale of the 50% interest in SCGC, and (ii)
remaining basis in its 50% interest in SCGC, is as follows:

The gain on the sale of the 50% interest in SCGC has been deferred until such
time as its realization is reasonably assured.  Realization of such gain is
dependent on collection of the LRGP Note which in turn is principally dependent
on future operating profits, which have not as yet been assured.  The principal
payments on the LRGP Note prior to maturity are limited to the amount of
distributions received by LRGP from SCGC's operations, and payment of such Note
is not guaranteed by LRGP.  Similarly, no gain will be recognized for income
tax purposes as Crown will elect to report such gain as an installment sale.


NOTE

a -     To record interest income at 11.5% on the $20,000 LRGP Note received in
        the sale of the 50% interest in SCGC.

b -     To record adjustment in equity in loss of SCGC due to the $4,000
        buy-out of the Century Casinos, Inc. management agreement, net of an
        income tax benefit of $1,560.

c -     To record adjustment in equity in loss of SCGC to reflect a lower
        interest expense of $1,100 due to the estimated difference in interest
        rates to be obtained with LRGP's credit assistance (11.5% versus 13%),
        and a lower level of debt issuance costs and discount and related
        amortization thereof, net of an income tax benefit of $400.

d -     To record the impact on income taxes of the adjustment described in
        Note a above based upon a 39% effective income tax rate.
