of  normal  recurring  adjustments  considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included.  Operating results for the three and six month periods ended
October  29,  2000  are  not  necessarily  indicative of the results that may be
expected  for  the  fiscal year ending April 29, 2001.  For further information,
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in
the  Company's  annual  report  on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30,
2000.

     The  consolidated  financial statements of the Company include the accounts
of  Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc. and its subsidiaries.  All material intercompany
balances  and  transactions  have  been  eliminated  in  consolidation.

     The  preparation  of  financial  statements  in  conformity  with generally
accepted accounting principles necessarily 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 as well as revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual
amounts  when  ultimately  realized  could  differ  from  those  estimates.

value attributed to the Louisiana gaming licenses acquired through the Company's
acquisition  of  St.  Charles  Gaming  Company,  Inc.  ("SCGC"),  Grand  Palais
Riverboat, Inc. ("GPRI") and Louisiana Riverboat Gaming Partnership ("LRGP") and
the  value  of the Lady Luck Gaming Corporation ("Lady Luck") trademarks, player
database  and  workforce  acquired  in  the  acquisition  of  Lady  Luck  Gaming
Corporation.  These  assets  are  being amortized over a twenty-five-year period
using  the  straight-line  method.

    Goodwill

     Goodwill  reflects  the excess purchase price the Company paid in acquiring
the  net  identifiable  tangible and intangible assets of SCGC, GPRI, LRGP, Lady
Luck  and  subsidiaries,  BRDC,  Inc.,  IOC  Boonville,  Inc. f/k/a Davis Gaming
Boonville,  Inc.  ("Isle-Boonville")  ,  IOC-Kansas  City Inc. f/k/a Kansas City
Flamingo  Hilton  ("Isle-Kansas City"), Gemini, Inc. ("Lady Luck Las Vegas") and
IOC  Davenport,  Inc.  f/k/a/  The  President  - Davenport ("Isle - Davenport").
Goodwill  is  being  amortized  over  a  twenty-five-year  period  using  the

totaling  $1.2  million,  deposit  of  $1.1  million held in trust to secure the
letter  of credit for Isle-Black Hawk (see note 8 ), construction escrow related
to  our  Boonville,  MO development of $1.0 million,  and various other deposits
totaling  $1.6  million.

4.  SHORT-TERM  INVESTMENTS

subsidiaries,  excluding  the  subsidiaries  that own and operate the Isle-Black
Hawk.  Interest  on  the  Senior  Subordinated Notes is payable semi-annually on
each  April  15  and October 15 through maturity.  The Senior Subordinated Notes
are  redeemable,  in whole or in part, at the Company's option at any time on or
after  April  15,  2004  at  the  redemption prices (expressed as percentages of
principal  amount)  set  forth  below  plus  accrued  and unpaid interest to the
applicable  redemption date, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on
April  15  of  the  years  indicated  below:

     The Company issued the Senior Subordinated Notes under an indenture between
the Company, the subsidiary guarantors and a trustee. The indenture, among other
things,  restricts the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to
borrow  money,  make  restricted  payments,  use  assets  as  security  in other
transactions,  enter  into  transactions with affiliates, or pay dividends on or
repurchase  its stock or its restricted subsidiaries' stock. The Company is also
restricted  in  its  ability to issue and sell capital stock of its subsidiaries
and  in  its ability to sell assets in excess of specified amounts or merge with
or  into  other  companies.

     A  substantial  part of the proceeds from the Senior Subordinated Notes was
used  to  prepay  long-term  debt, including all of the $315,000,000 of 12 1/2 %
Senior  Secured  Notes  due 2003.  The proceeds were also used to pay prepayment
premiums,  accrued  interest  and  other  transaction  fees  and  costs.

     On  March  2,  2000  Isle  of  Capri amended and restated its Senior Credit
Facility in connection with the acquisition of Lady Luck and BRDC, as well as to
provide  financing  for  the acquisitions of the Isle-Kansas City, Lady Luck Las
Vegas,  Isle-Davenport, and Isle-Boonville and the construction of a facility at
that  location.  The previous $175.0 million Senior Credit Facility was expanded
under  the  amended  and  restated  agreement  to a $600.0 million Senior Credit
Facility,  including a $125.0 million revolver, of which $62.0 million was drawn
as  of  October  29,  2000.  On March 2, 2000, $475.0 million in term loans were
funded  under  the  Company's  Amended  and  Restated  Senior Credit Facility in
connection with the acquisition of Lady Luck and BRDC.  A portion of the initial
$475.0  million  funding  was  also  used to repay outstanding amounts under the
existing  credit  facility  and to fund the redemption of Lady Luck indebtedness
and  preferred  stock.

     The  Amended  and  Restated  Senior  Credit Facility is secured by liens on
substantially  all  of  the  Company's  assets  and  guaranteed  by  all  of its
significant restricted subsidiaries, excluding Casino America of Colorado, Inc.,
Isle-Black  Hawk,  and  its  subsidiary.  Isle  of  Capri must repay all amounts
borrowed  under  its  Amended and Restated Senior Credit Facility by March 2007.
Isle  of  Capri  is  required to make quarterly principal payments on the $475.0
million  term  loan  portion  of its Senior Credit Facility which began in March
2000.  Such payments are initially $3.4 million per quarter and will increase by
$1.25  million  per  quarter  in  July  of  each  year  that  the  term  loan is
outstanding.  In  addition,  Isle  of Capri will be required to make substantial
quarterly  interest  payments  on  the  outstanding  balance  of its Amended and
Restated  Senior  Credit  Facility  and  interest  payments  of  $17.1  million
semi-annually  on  its  8  3/4  %  Senior  Subordinated  Notes.

8.  LONG-TERM  DEBT  (CONTINUED)

     On  August  20,  1997,  Isle-Black  Hawk  issued  $75  million of 13% First
Mortgage  Notes due 2004 with Contingent Interest, which is non-recourse debt to
the  Company.  Interest  on the First Mortgage Notes is payable semi-annually on
February  28  and  August  31  of  each  year,  commencing  February  28,  1998.
Additionally, contingent interest is payable on the First Mortgage Notes on each
interest  payment  date,  in  an  aggregate  principal  amount  of  5%  of  the
Consolidated Cash Flow (as defined in the Indenture governing the First Mortgage
Notes).  In  February  2000,  Isle-Black Hawk made its first contingent interest
payment  totaling  $1.0  million  as  required  by  the  Isle-Black Hawk's First
Mortgage  Notes.  The  amount  of  contingent  interest expense recorded for the
three  and  six  months  ended  October  29,  2000  is  $380,000  and  $690,000,
respectively.  The  amount of contingent interest expense recorded for the three
and  six  months  ended October 24, 1999 is $248,000 and $466,000, respectively.

     The  First  Mortgage Notes are redeemable at the option of Isle-Black Hawk,
in  whole  or  in part, at any time on or after August 1, 2001 at the redemption
prices  (expressed  as  percentages  of  principal  amount) set forth below plus
accrued  and  unpaid  interest  to  the  redemption date, if redeemed during the
12-month  period  beginning  on  August  31  of  the  years  indicated  below:

     On  June  5,  2000,  Isle-Black  Hawk  offered  to  purchase for cash up to
$1,246,000  principal  amount  of  their  13% First Mortgage Notes due 2004 at a
price  of  $1,010  per $1,000 principal amount, plus interest accrued up to, but
not  including,  the Payment Date in accordance with the terms of its indenture.
No  Notes  were  tendered  for purchase.  Isle-Black Hawk is required to make an
offer  based  upon  excess  cash  flow  every year during the term of the bonds.

     Isle of Capri has $4.5 million available in bank lines of credit other than
the  Senior  Credit  Facility.  As  of  October  29,  2000, Isle of Capri had no
outstanding  balances  under  these  lines  of  credit.

     Isle-Black  Hawk  obtained  a letter of credit as a requirement to obtain a
building  permit  from  the  City of Black Hawk.  The letter of credit, totaling
$2.1  million,  can  be drawn upon by the City if for any reason Isle-Black Hawk
fails  to  complete  the  hotel  project;  certain  public  improvements are not
completed;  or  for repair and maintenance on the public improvements within one
year  after  completion.  The  letter  of credit is secured by a deposit held in
trust  of  $1.1  million,  which was funded by Isle of Capri, and the balance is
secured  by  Isle  of  Capri's  open  line  of  credit  with  the  bank.

     As part of a 1997 development agreement between the Isle-Bettendorf and the
City  of  Bettendorf, the City  issued $9.5 million in tax incremental financing
bonds  ("TIF  Bonds"),  $7.5  million  of  which  was used by Isle-Bettendorf to
construct  an  overpass,  parking  garage, related site improvements and pay for
disruption  damages caused by construction of the overpass.  To enable financing
of the City's obligations, Isle - Bettendorf will pay incremental property taxes
on  the  developed property assessed at a valuation of not less than $32 million
until  the TIF Bonds mature which will be no later than 2011.  Additionally, the
TIF  Bonds  will  also  be  repaid  from  the incremental taxes on the developed
property  within  the  defined "TIF District" which includes Isle-Bettendorf and
over  100  other  tax  paying  entities.  As the TIF District will repay the TIF
Bonds,  Isle-Bettendorf may not be required to fully repay the $7.5 million.  In
the  event  that  the  taxes  generated  by  the  project  and  other qualifying
developments  in  the  redevelopment  district  do not fund the repayment of the
total  TIF Bonds prior to their scheduled maturity, Isle-Bettendorf will pay the
City  $0.25  per  person  for  each person entering the boat until the remaining
balance  has  been  repaid.

     Substantially  all  of Isle of Capri's assets are pledged as collateral for
long-term  debt  under  the  Amended  and  Restated  Senior Credit Facility.  At
October  29,  2000,  Isle  of  Capri  was in compliance with all debt covenants.

9.  CONTINGENCIES

     One  of  the  Company's  subsidiaries  has  been named, along with numerous
manufacturers,  distributors  and  gaming  operators,  including  many  of  the
country's  largest  gaming  operators,  in  a  consolidated class action lawsuit
pending  in  Las Vegas, Nevada.  These gaming industry defendants are alleged to
have violated the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act by engaging
in  a  course  of fraudulent and misleading conduct intended to induce people to
play their gaming machines based upon a false belief concerning how those gaming
machines  actually  operate  and  the  extent  to  which  there  is  actually an
opportunity  to  win on any given play.  The suit seeks unspecified compensatory
and  punitive  damages.  A  motion  for  certification of the class is currently
pending before the court and no discovery as to the merits of the alleged claims
has begun.  The Company is unable at this time to determine what effect, if any,
the  suit  would  have  on  its  financial  position  or  results of operations.
However,  the  gaming industry defendants are committed to defend vigorously all
claims  asserted  in  the  consolidated  action.

     In  May  1998, the Company was named as a defendant in an action brought by
several  persons  who  had  a  contractual  right to acquire property in Cripple
Creek,  Colorado  which  they sold to one of the Company's subsidiaries in 1995.
The  plaintiffs  allege  that  the  Company  breached its purported agreement to
construct  a  casino  facility  on the property by the end of 1995.  In December
1998,  the  Company's  motion to dismiss the complaint was granted by the United
States  District  Court in Denver, Colorado and was affirmed in November 2000 by
the  Tenth  Circuit Court of Appeals.  The plaintiffs have now requested a panel
hearing  before  the  Tenth  Circuit  Court  of Appeals.  The Company intends to
vigorously  defend  all  claims  and  allegations  in  the  action.

     In  August  1997,  a lawsuit was filed which seeks to nullify a contract to
which  Louisiana  Riverboat  Gaming  Partnership  is  a  party.  Pursuant to the
contract,  Louisiana  Riverboat  Gaming  Partnership  pays a fixed amount plus a
percentage of revenue to various local governmental entities, including the City
of  Bossier  and  the  Bossier  Parish  School  Board,  in  lieu of payment of a
per-passenger  boarding  fee.  Summary  judgment in favor of Louisiana Riverboat
Gaming  Partnership was granted on June 4, 1998.  That judgment was not appealed
and  is  now final.  On June 11, 1998, a similar suit was filed and judgment was
rendered  in  the Company's favor on September 16, 1999 by the lower court.  The
case  has  been  reversed  on appeal and remanded to the lower court for further
proceedings   The  Company  is  vigorously  defending  this  suit.

     Lady  Luck  has  been named as a defendant in a purported shareholder class
action  lawsuit  filed alleging violations by Lady Luck of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as  amended  (the  "Exchange  Act"), for alleged material misrepresentations and
omissions  in  connection  with  Lady  Luck's 1993 prospectus and initial public
offering  of Common Stock.  The complaint seeks,  among other things, injunctive
relief,  rescission  and  unspecified  compensatory  damages.  While the outcome
of  this  matter  cannot  presently  be  determined,  the  Company  intends  to
vigorously  defend  the  claims  asserted  in  this  action.

     Lady Luck and particular joint venture partners are defendants in a lawsuit
brought  by  the  country of Greece and its Minister of Tourism before the Greek
Multi-Member  Court  of  First Instance.  The action alleges that the defendants
failed  to  make  specified  payments  in connection with the gaming license bid
process  for Patras, Greece.   Although it is difficult to determine the damages
being  sought  from  the  lawsuit,  the  case has been briefed and a preliminary
decision  is  expected  early  summer 2001.    The outcome of the case cannot be
predicted with any degree of certainty; however, the Company intends to continue
vigorously  defending  the  claims  asserted  in  this  action.

     The  Company  is currently involved in an arbitration proceeding concerning
the  amount  of payments owed to a party which had an interest in property owned
by  the  Company located in Lula, Mississippi.  The claimant is seeking payments
based  upon  gross  revenue  from the Company's Lula, Mississippi facility.  The
Company  disputes  this claim and believes that its responsibility is limited to
payments  which are fixed in amount.  The case is still in its preliminary stage
and its outcome cannot be predicted with any degree of certainty but the Company
intends  to continue vigorously defending the claim asserted in this proceeding.

9.  CONTINGENCIES  (CONTINUED)

     The Company is engaged in various other litigation matters and has a number
of  unresolved  claims.  Although  the ultimate liability of this litigation and
these  claims  cannot be determined at this time, the Company believes that they
will  not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial
position  or  results  of  operations.

     The  Company  is  subject to certain federal, state and local environmental
protection,  health  and  safety  laws, regulations and ordinances that apply to
businesses  generally,  and is subject to cleanup requirements at certain of its
facilities  as  a  result  thereof.  The  Company  has  not  made,  and does not
anticipate  making,  material  expenditures  or incurring delays with respect to
environmental remediation or protection.  However, in part because the Company's
present  and  future  development  sites  have,  in  some  cases,  been  used as
manufacturing  facilities  or  other facilities that generate materials that are
required to be remediated under environmental laws and regulations, there can be
no  guarantee that additional pre-existing conditions will not be discovered and
that  the  Company  will  not  experience  material  liabilities  or  delays.

10.     DEFERRED  BONUS  PLAN

     In  the  second  quarter  of  2001, the Company's stockholders approved the
Deferred  Bonus  Plan.  The Plan provides for the issuance of nonvested stock to
eligible  officers  and  employees  who agree to receive a deferred bonus in the
form  of  nonvested stock.  The vesting of the stock is dependent upon continued
service  to  the Company for a period of five years.  The nonvested stock issued
in  connection  with the plan totaled 380,681 shares as of October 29, 2000.  In
the  second  quarter  2001, the Company recorded an unearned compensation contra
account  in  stockholders' equity equal to the fair value of the nonvested award
and  recorded compensation expense for the portion of unearned compensation that
had  been  earned  through  October  29,  2000.

11.  PREOPENING  EXPENSES

     Preopening expenses of $3.4 million represent salaries, benefits, training,
marketing  and  other  costs  incurred  in  connection  with  the opening of the
Isle-Tunica  on  July  26,  1999.

12.  SUBSEQUENT  EVENTS

          On  November 28, 2000 Isle-Black Hawk repaid $5.0 million of the $5.75
million  hotel  loan.

ITEM  2.     MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION  AND  ANALYSIS  OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS  OF  OPERATIONS.

     You  should  read  the  following  discussion  together  with the financial
statements,  including  the related notes and the other financial information in
this  report.

     The  following  discussion includes "forward-looking statements" within the
meaning  of  Section  27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section
21E  of  the  Securities  Exchange  Act  of  1934,  as  amended.  In particular,
statements  concerning  the  effects  of  increased competition in the Company's
markets,  the effects of regulatory and legislative matters, the Company's plans
to  make  capital  investments at its facilities, including, without limitation,
considerations  to  obtain  approvals  for  a  new  project  in  the  St.  Louis
metropolitan  area,  development of a casino as the Isle-Boonville in Boonville,
Missouri,  and  the  expansion  of  amenities  at  all facilities, including the
conversion  of  the  recently  acquired  Lady  Luck  Gaming  facilities, and the
Isle-Kansas  City,  into  Isle of Capri Casinos and development of the new brand
for  the  Rhythm  City-Davenport  are  forward looking statements.  Although the
Company believes that the expectations are reasonable, there can be no assurance
that  such  expectations  are  reasonable  or that they will be correct.  Actual
results  may  vary materially from those expected.  Important factors that could
cause  actual  results  to  differ with respect to the Company's planned capital
expenditures  principally  include  a  lack  of  available  capital  resources,
construction  and development risks such as shortages of materials or labor, and
unforeseen  delays  resulting  from  a  failure  to  obtain necessary approvals.

GENERAL

     Isle  of  Capri's  results  of  operations  for the six fiscal months ended
October  29,  2000 reflect the consolidated operations of all of Isle of Capri's
subsidiaries,  including  the  Isle-Biloxi, the Isle-Vicksburg, the Isle-Bossier
City,  the  Isle-Lake  Charles,  the  Isle-Black  Hawk,  the  Isle-Tunica,  the
Isle-Natchez,  the  Isle-Lula,  the  Isle-Bettendorf,  and  the  Isle-Marquette.
Results  also include the Isle-Kansas City subsequent to its purchase on June 6,
2000,  Lady  Luck Las Vegas subsequent to its purchase on September 12, 2000 and
Rhythm  City  -  Davenport  subsequent  to  its  purchase  on  October 10, 2000.

     Isle  of  Capri's  results  of  operations  for the six fiscal months ended
October  24,  1999 reflect the consolidated operations of all of Isle of Capri's
subsidiaries  owned  at  that  time,  including  the  Isle-Lake  Charles,  the
Isle-Bossier  City,  the  Isle-Biloxi,  the Isle-Vicksburg, the Isle-Tunica that
opened  July  26,  1999  and  the  Isle-Black  Hawk.  The  Rhythm City-Davenport
property  was  purchased  on  October  10,  2000, the Lady Luck Las Vegas Casino
property was purchased on September 12, 2000, the Isle-Kansas City was purchased
on June 6, 2000 and the Natchez, Lula, Bettendorf, and Marquette properties were
purchased  along with other related assets on March 2, 2000 and are not included
in  the  consolidated  results for the six fiscal months ended October 24, 1999.

     Isle of Capri believes that its historical results of operations may not be
indicative  of  its  future  results  of  operations  because of the substantial
present and expected future increase in competition for gaming customers in each
of  Isle  of Capri's markets, as new casinos open and existing casinos add to or
enhance  their  facilities.

     Isle  of  Capri  also  believes  that its operating results are affected by
seasonality.  Seasonality has historically caused the operating results for Isle
of  Capri's  first  and  fourth  fiscal  quarters  ending  in  July  and  April,
respectively, to be notably better than the operating results for the second and
third  fiscal  quarters  ending  October  and  January,  respectively.

RESULTS  OF  OPERATIONS

Three Fiscal Months Ended October 29, 2000 Compared to Three Fiscal Months Ended
October  24,  1999

     Total  revenue  for  the quarter ended October 29, 2000 was $251.5 million,
which  included $231.0 million of casino revenue, $6.2 million of rooms revenue,
$3.2  million of pari-mutuel commissions and $11.1 million of food, beverage and
other  revenue.  This compares to total revenue for the prior year quarter ended
October  24,  1999  of  $155.0  million, which included $141.5 million of casino
revenue,  $2.8 million of rooms revenue, $3.6 million of pari-mutuel commissions
and  $7.1 million of food, beverage and other revenue.  Casino revenue increased
$89.6  million or 63.3% primarily as a result of a full quarter of operations of
the  former  Lady  Luck  properties  and  the Isle-Kansas City, the inclusion of
approximately  two months of operating results from the acquisition of Lady Luck
Las  Vegas,  the  inclusion of approximately one month of operating results from
the acquisition of the Rhythm City-Davenport.  Casino revenue also increased due
to  improvements  made  at Isle-Black Hawk through the opening of a new hotel at
that  property.  Room  revenue  increased  $3.4  million or 119.4% due to a full
quarter  of  operations  of the former Lady Luck properties, the Isle-Black Hawk
hotel  that opened in August, 2000, the inclusion of approximately two months of
room  revenue  from  the acquisition of Lady Luck Las Vegas and the inclusion of
approximately  one month of room revenue from the acquisition of Isle-Davenport.
Food,  beverage and other revenue increased by $4.0 million or 57.2% as a result
of  a  full  quarter  of  operations  of the former Lady Luck properties and the
Isle-Kansas City, the inclusion of approximately two months of operating results
from  the acquisition of Lady Luck Las Vegas, and the inclusion of approximately
one  month  of  operating results from the acquisition of Rhythm City-Davenport.

     Casino  operating  expenses  for the quarter ended October 29, 2000 totaled
$44.8  million,  or  19.4%  of casino revenue, versus $27.2 million, or 19.3% of
casino  revenue,  for  the  quarter  ended October 24, 1999.  These expenses are
primarily comprised of salaries, wages and benefits and other operating expenses
of  the  casinos.  The  increase in casino operating expenses is attributable to
the  additional  properties  as  well as improved casino revenue at the original
five  Isle  of  Capri  properties.

     Operating  expenses  for  the  quarter ended October 29, 2000 also included
room  expenses  of  $2.8 million or 45.5% of room revenue from the hotels at the
Isle-Lake Charles, Isle-Bossier City, Isle-Biloxi, Isle-Vicksburg, Isle-Natchez,
Isle-Lula, Isle-Bettendorf, Isle-Marquette, Isle-Black Hawk, Lady Luck Las Vegas
and  Isle-Davenport  compared  to  $1.3 million or 46.9% of room revenue for the
quarter  ended  October  24,  1999  from  the  hotels  at the Isle-Lake Charles,
Isle-Bossier City, Isle-Biloxi, and the Isle-Vicksburg.  These expenses directly
relate  to  the  cost  of  providing hotel rooms.  Other costs of the hotels are
shared  with  the  casinos  and  are  presented  in  their  respective  expense
categories.

     For  the  quarter ended October 29, 2000, state and local gaming taxes were
paid  in  Louisiana,  Mississippi,  Colorado, Iowa, Missouri and Nevada totaling
$46.3 million, compared to $27.9 million for the quarter ended October 24, 1999,
which  is consistent with each state's gaming tax rate for the applicable fiscal
quarters.  For  the quarter ended October 24, 1999, state and local gaming taxes
were  paid  in  Louisiana,  Mississippi  and  Colorado.

     Food,  beverage  and  other  expenses  totaled $7.6 million for the quarter
ended  October  29, 2000, compared to $4.2 million for the quarter ended October
24, 1999.  These expenses consist primarily of the cost of goods sold, salaries,
wages  and benefits and operating expenses of these departments.  These expenses
have increased as a result of the expansion in the number of properties operated
by  the  Isle and continued expansion of the original Isle facilities.  Food and
beverage  and  other  operating  expenses  as a percentage of food, beverage and
other  revenues  increased from 59.9% for the quarter ending October 24, 1999 to
68.1%  for  the  quarter  ended  October 29, 2000.  This was attributable to the
inclusion  of  two  months  of Lady Luck-Las Vegas operating in the downtown Las
Vegas market, whose food and beverage expense is significantly higher than other
Isle properties.  The increase was also due to the start up costs related to the
opening of food and beverage outlets related to the opening of two new hotels in
Isle-Tunica  and  Isle-Black  Hawk and the newly acquired outlets at Isle-Kansas
City  that  have  not  been  converted  to  Isle  standards.

     Marine  and facilities expenses totaled $14.7 million for the quarter ended
October  29,  2000,  versus $9.6 million for the quarter ended October 24, 1999.
These  expenses  include salaries, wages and benefits, operating expenses of the
marine  crews, insurance, housekeeping and general maintenance of the riverboats
and  floating  pavilions.  These  expenses  have  increased  as  a result of the
expansion  in  the number of properties operated by the Isle and the maturity of
Isle  of  Capri's  vessels  and  facilities.

     Marketing  and  administrative  expenses totaled $75.3 million, or 29.9% of
total  revenue, for the quarter ended October 29, 2000, versus $49.1 million, or
31.7%  of  total  revenue,  for  the  quarter ended October 24, 1999.  Marketing
expenses  include  salaries,  wages  and  benefits  of  the  marketing and sales
departments,  as  well  as  promotions,  advertising,  special  events  and
entertainment.  Administrative  expenses  include  administration  and  human
resource  department  expenses,  rent,  new development activities, professional
fees and property taxes. Marketing and administrative expenses have increased as
a  result  of the expansion in the number of properties operated by the Isle and
continued  expansion  of  Isle  facilities.
<PAGE>
     Depreciation  and  amortization  expense  was $15.9 million for the quarter
ended  October 29, 2000 and $9.1 million for the quarter ended October 24, 1999.
These  expenses relate to property and equipment, berthing and concession rights
and  the  amortization  of  intangible assets.  The increase in depreciation and
amortization expense is consistent with the increase in fixed assets placed into
service  or  acquired.

     Interest  expense was $23.9 million for the quarter ended October 29, 2000,
net of capitalized interest of $1.7 million versus $13.5 million for the quarter
ended  October  24, 1999, net of capitalized interest of $0.2 million.  Interest
expense  primarily  relates  to  indebtedness  incurred  in  connection with the
acquisition  of  property,  equipment,  leasehold  improvements and berthing and
concession  rights.  Additionally,  interest  expense of $3.2 million related to
Isle-Black  Hawk  is  included  in  the  quarter  ended  October 29, 2000.  This
compares  to  interest  expense  of $2.9 million, net of capitalized interest of
$0.1  million,  for  the  quarter  ended  October  24,  1999.

     Isle  of Capri's  effective tax rate was 44.0% prior to extraordinary items
for the  quarter  ended October 29, 2000 and 39.9% for the quarter ended October
24, 1999,  and  includes  the  effects  of  non-deductible goodwill amortization
for income  tax  purposes.

Six  Fiscal  Months  Ended  October 29, 2000 Compared to Six Fiscal Months Ended
October  24,  1999

     Total revenue for the six months ended October 29, 2000 was $503.0 million,
which included $461.4 million of casino revenue, $11.0 million of rooms revenue,
$8.1  million of pari-mutuel commissions and $22.5 million of food, beverage and
other  revenue.  This  compares  to  total revenue for the prior year six months
ended  October  24,  1999  of  $297.2  million, which included $269.8 million of
casino  revenue,  $5.4  million  of  rooms  revenue, $8.4 million of pari-mutuel
commissions  and  $13.6  million  of  food,  beverage and other revenue.  Casino
revenue  increased  $191.6  million or 71.0% primarily as a result of a full six
months  of  operations  of  the  former  Lady  Luck  properties the inclusion of
approximately  five  months  of  operating  results  from the acquisition of the
Isle-Kansas City, the inclusion of approximately two months of operating results
from  the acquisition of Lady Luck Las Vegas, the inclusion of approximately one
month  of  operating  results from the acquisition of the Rhythm City-Davenport,
and  the  improvements  at  Isle-Black Hawk and Isle-Lake Charles.  Room revenue
increased  $5.6  million or 102.3% due to a full six months of operations of the
former  Lady Luck properties and the Isle-Black Hawk hotel that opened in August
2000.    Food,  beverage and other revenue increased by $8.9 million or 65.6% as
a  result  of a full six months of operations of the former Lady Luck properties
the  inclusion  of  approximately  five  months  of  operating  results from the
acquisition  of  the Isle-Kansas City, the inclusion of approximately two months
of  operating  results  from  the  acquisition  of  Lady Luck Las Vegas, and the
inclusion  of  approximately one month of operating results from the acquisition
of  Rhythm  City-Davenport.  Revenue  does  not  reflect the retail value of any
complimentaries.

     Casino operating expenses for the six months ended October 29, 2000 totaled
$89.2  million,  or  19.3%  of casino revenue, versus $50.2 million, or 18.6% of
casino  revenue,  for the six months ended October 24, 1999.  These expenses are
primarily comprised of salaries, wages and benefits and other operating expenses
of  the  casinos.  The  increase in casino operating expenses is attributable to
the  additional  properties  as  well as improved casino revenue at the original
five  Isle  of  Capri  properties.

     Operating  expenses for the six months ended October 29, 2000 also included
room  expenses  of  $5.1 million or 46.2% of room revenue from the hotels at the
Isle-Lake Charles, Isle-Bossier City, Isle-Biloxi, Isle-Vicksburg, Isle-Natchez,
Isle-Lula,  Isle-Bettendorf  , Isle-Marquette and Isle-Black Hawk as compared to
$2.5  million or 45.0% of room revenue for the six months ended October 24, 1999
from  the  hotels  at the Isle-Lake Charles, Isle-Bossier City, Isle-Biloxi, and
the  Isle-Vicksburg.  These  expenses  directly  relate to the cost of providing
hotel  rooms.  Other  costs  of  the  hotels are shared with the casinos and are
presented  in  their  respective  expense  categories.

     For  the  six  months  ended October 29, 2000, state and local gaming taxes
were  paid  in  Louisiana,  Mississippi,  Colorado,  Iowa,  Missouri  and Nevada
totaling  $91.6  million,  compared  to  $53.7  million for the six months ended
October  24, 1999, which is consistent with each state's gaming tax rate for the
applicable  fiscal  quarters.  For  the six months ended October 24, 1999, state
and  local  gaming  taxes  were  paid  in  Louisiana,  Mississippi and Colorado.
<PAGE>
     Food,  beverage and other expenses totaled $14.6 million for the six months
ended  October  29,  2000,  compared  to  $8.3  million for the six months ended
October  24,  1999.  These expenses consist primarily of the cost of goods sold,
salaries, wages and benefits and operating expenses of these departments.  These
expenses have increased as a result of the expansion in the number of properties
operated  by  the  Isle and continued expansion of the original Isle facilities.
Food and beverage and other operating expenses as a percentage of food, beverage
and  other  revenues  increased from 61.1% for the six months ending October 24,
1999  to 65.1% for the six months ended October 29, 2000.  This was attributable
to the inclusion for two months of Lady Luck-Las Vegas operating in the downtown
Las  Vegas  market, whose food and beverage expense is significantly higher than
other  Isle properties.  The increase was also due to the start up costs related
to  the  opening  of  food  and  beverage  outlets  related  to  the  opening of
Isle-Tunica  and  Isle-Black  Hawk and the newly acquired outlets at Isle-Kansas
City  that  have  not  been  converted  to  Isle  standards.

     Marine  and  facilities  expenses  totaled $29.2 million for the six months
ended  October  29,  2000, versus $18.5 million for the six months ended October
24,  1999.  These  expenses  include  salaries,  wages  and  benefits, operating
expenses of the marine crews, insurance, housekeeping and general maintenance of
the  riverboats  and  floating  pavilions.  These  expenses  have increased as a
result of the expansion in the number of properties operated by the Isle and the
maturity  of  Isle  of  Capri's  vessels  and  facilities.

     Marketing  and  administrative expenses totaled $152.0 million, or 30.2% of
total  revenue, for the six months ended October 29, 2000, versus $91.4 million,
or 30.7% of total revenue, for the six months ended October 24, 1999.  Marketing
expenses  include  salaries,  wages  and  benefits  of  the  marketing and sales
departments,  as  well  as  promotions,  advertising,  special  events  and
entertainment.  Administrative  expenses  include  administration  and  human
resource  department  expenses,  rent,  new development activities, professional
fees and property taxes. Marketing and administrative expenses have increased as
a  result  of the expansion in the number of properties operated by the Isle and
continued  expansion  of  Isle  facilities.

     Pre-opening  expenses  of $3.4 million for the six months ended October 24,
1999  represent  salaries,  benefits,  training,  marketing  and  other
non-capitalizable costs, which were expensed in connection with the Isle-Tunica,
which  opened  on  July  26,  1999.

     Isle  of Capri's results of operations for the six months ended October 29,
2000 included a gain on disposal of $0.3 million as compared to $3.1 million for
the  six  months  ended  October 24, 1999.  Both gains related to the sale of an
option  to  purchase  135  acres  of  land  adjacent  to  the Pompano Park, Inc.
facility.

     Depreciation  and amortization expense was $31.1 million for the six months
ended  October  29,  2000 and $17.9 million for the six months ended October 24,
1999.  These  expenses relate to property and equipment, berthing and concession
rights  and the amortization of intangible assets.  The increase in depreciation
and  amortization expense is consistent with the increase in fixed assets placed
into  service  or  acquired.

     Interest  expense  was  $47.3  million for the six months ended October 29,
2000,  net  of capitalized interest of $3.0 million versus $25.6 million for the
six  months ended October 24, 1999, net of capitalized interest of $1.1 million.
Interest  expense  primarily relates to indebtedness incurred in connection with
the  acquisition of property, equipment, leasehold improvements and berthing and
concession  rights.  Additionally,  interest  expense of $5.5 million related to
Isle-Black  Hawk  is  included  in the six months ended October 29, 2000, net of
capitalized interest of $0.7 million.  This compares to interest expense of $5.6
million,  net  of capitalized interest of $0.4 million, for the six months ended
October  24,  1999.

     Isle  of  Capri's effective tax rate was 45.7% prior to extraordinary items
for  the  six  months  ended October 29, 2000 and 43.5% for the six months ended
October  24,  1999,  and  includes  the  effects  of  non-deductible  goodwill
amortization  for  income  tax  purposes.

LIQUIDITY  AND  CAPITAL  RESOURCES

     At  October 29, 2000, Isle of Capri had cash and cash equivalents of $112.2
million  compared  to  $168.0  million  in  cash  and cash equivalents and $39.0
million  in  short  term investments at April 30, 2000.  The decrease in cash is
primarily the net result of cash inflow from operations and cash outflow for the
acquisitions  of  Isle-Kansas  City,  Lady  Luck  Las  Vegas  and  Rhythm City -
Davenport,  development  of  the  Isle-Boonville,  construction  of  hotels  at
Isle-Black  Hawk,  Isle-Lake  Charles  and Isle-Tunica and the conversion of the
former  Lady  Luck  properties  into  Isle  of Capri properties.  During the six
months  ended  October  29,  2000, Isle of Capri's operating activities provided
$44.7  million  of cash, compared to $43.9 million of cash provided by operating
activities  in  the  six  months  ended  October  24,  1999.

     On  May  3,  2000,  Isle  of  Capri  acquired  Isle-Boonville,  which  has
preliminary  approval to develop a gaming facility in Boonville, Missouri.  Isle
of  Capri  is  developing  a  casino project with a total expected investment of
approximately $75.0 million that includes total purchase price of $11.5 million.
Isle of Capri began construction on this project and is funding this development
through its Amended and Restated Senior Credit Facility.  The Company expects to
complete  the  project  in  the  fall  of  2001.

     Additionally,  on June 6, 2000, Isle of Capri acquired Isle-Kansas City for
$33.5  million cash less certain assumed liabilities.  Isle of Capri anticipates
investing  up  to  an  additional  $15.0  million  in this project, primarily to
re-theme  the  casino  into  an  Isle of Capri Casino.  Isle of Capri funded the
acquisition  and  is  funding  the  re-theming  through its Amended and Restated
Senior  Credit  Facility.

     Isle  of  Capri  anticipates  that  a  significant portion of its principal
near-term  capital  requirements  will  relate  to  the  construction  of  the
Isle-Boonville.  Isle  of  Capri  plans  to  invest  approximately  $75 million.

     The  Missouri  Gaming Commission has selected the Isle of Capri's Jefferson
County, Missouri project for development.  This project will primarily serve the
South  St.  Louis metropolitan area.  Isle expects to begin construction in 2001
and  to complete the project eighteen to twenty-four months thereafter.  Isle of
Capri  expects  to  invest  approximately  $105  million in the project.  A town
located  near  the site of the Company's proposed development has indicated that
it  intends  to  condemn  and/or  annex Isle of Capri's site in order to prevent
development  of  the  project.  Isle of Capri intends to vigorously oppose these
efforts;  however,  development  of  the  project  could  be  delayed.

     Isle  of  Capri completed the acquisition of the Las Vegas casino and hotel
on  September  12,  2000.  The  acquisition price for the Las Vegas facility was
$14.5  million.  Isle  of  Capri  funded the acquisition through its Amended and
Restated  Senior  Credit  Facility.

     A  joint  venture in which Isle of Capri owns a 45% interest has applied to
the  Louisiana  Gaming  Control  Board  for  the issuance of a gaming license in
Morgan  City,  Louisiana.  A  decision  is  expected  from  the Louisiana Gaming
Control  Board  during  the  first  quarter  of  2001.

     On October 10, 2000, the Company purchased the Rhythm City-Davenport from a
subsidiary  of  President  Casinos,  Inc.,  for  $58.2  million.  Isle  of Capri
anticipates  investing  up  to  an  additional  $23.0  million  in this project,
primarily  to  replace  the  existing boat and re-theme the casino into a Rhythm
City  Casino.  Isle  of  Capri  funded  the  acquisition and intends to fund the
re-theming  through  its  Amended  and  Restated  Senior  Credit  Facility.

     All  of Isle of Capri's development plans are subject to obtaining permits,
licenses  and  approvals  from appropriate regulatory and other agencies and, in
certain  circumstances, negotiating acceptable leases.  In addition, many of the
plans  are preliminary, subject to continuing refinement or otherwise subject to
change.

     Of  the estimated $35.0 million Isle of Capri plans on investing to convert
the  Lady  Luck  casinos into Isle of Capri Casinos, we have spent $14.8 million
for  the  six  months  ended  October  29,  2000.

       Isle  of  Capri anticipates that capital improvements approximating $28.1
million  will be made during fiscal 2001 to maintain its existing facilities and
remain competitive in its markets.  As of the six months ended October 29, 2000,
Isle  of  Capri  has  spent  $13.5  million on maintenance capital improvements.
<PAGE>
     Isle  of Capri expects that available cash and cash from future operations,
as  well  as  borrowings  under its Amended and Restated Senior Credit Facility,
will  be  sufficient  to  fund  future  expansion, planned capital expenditures,
service  debt and meet working capital requirements.  There is no assurance that
Isle  of  Capri  will have the capital resources to make all of the expenditures
described  above or that planned capital investments will be sufficient to allow
Isle  of  Capri to remain competitive in its existing markets.  In addition, the
indenture  restricts,  among  other  things,  Isle  of Capri's ability to borrow
money,  create  liens,  make  restricted  payments  and  sell  assets.

     Isle  of  Capri's  Amended and Restated Senior Credit Facility, among other
things,  restricts  Isle  of  Capri's  ability  to  borrow  money,  make capital
expenditures,  use  assets  as  security  in other transactions, make restricted
payments  or  restricted  investments, incur contingent obligations, sell assets
and enter into leases and transactions with affiliates. In addition, the Amended
and  Restated  Senior  Credit  Facility  requires  Isle of Capri to meet certain
financial  ratios and tests, including: a minimum consolidated net worth test, a
maximum consolidated total leverage test, a maximum consolidated senior leverage
test,  and  a  minimum  consolidated  fixed  charge  coverage  test.

     Isle  of  Capri  must  repay  all  amounts  borrowed  under its Amended and
Restated  Senior  Credit  Facility  by March 2007.  Isle of Capri is required to
make quarterly principal payments on the $475.0 million term loan portion of its
Amended  and  Restated  Senior  Credit  Facility that began in March 2000.  Such
payments  are  initially  $3.4  million  per  quarter and will increase by $1.25
million  per quarter in July of each year that the term loan is outstanding.  In
addition,  Isle of Capri will be required to make substantial quarterly interest
payments  on  the  outstanding balance of its Amended and Restated Senior Credit
Facility  and  interest  payments  of  $17.1 million semi-annually on its Senior
Subordinated  Notes.

     Isle  of  Capri  is highly leveraged and may be unable to obtain additional
debt  or  equity financing on acceptable terms. As a result, limitations on Isle
of  Capri's  capital  resources  could  delay  or cause Isle of Capri to abandon
certain  plans  for  capital  improvements  at  its  existing  properties  and
development  of  new  properties.  Isle  of  Capri will continue to evaluate its
planned  capital  expenditures at each of its existing locations in light of the
operating  performance  of  the  facilities  at  such  locations.

PART  II  -  OTHER  INFORMATION

ITEM  1.       LEGAL  PROCEEDINGS.

     One  of our subsidiaries has been named, along with numerous manufacturers,
distributors  and  gaming  operators,  including  many  of the country's largest
gaming  operators,  in a consolidated class action lawsuit pending in Las Vegas,
Nevada.  These  gaming  industry  defendants  are  alleged  to have violated the
Racketeer  Influenced  and  Corrupt Organizations Act by engaging in a course of
fraudulent and misleading conduct intended to induce people to play their gaming
machines based upon a false belief concerning how those gaming machines actually
operate  and  the extent to which there is actually an opportunity to win on any
given  play.  The  suit  seeks  unspecified compensatory and punitive damages. A
motion  for certification of the class is currently pending before the court and
no  discovery as to the merits of the alleged claims has begun. We are unable at
this time to determine what effect, if any, the suit would have on our financial
position  or  results of operations. However, the gaming industry defendants are
committed  to  defend vigorously all claims asserted in the consolidated action.

     In  May  1998, we were named as a defendant in an action brought by several
persons  who  had  a  contractual  right  to  acquire property in Cripple Creek,
Colorado  which  they  sold  to  one of our subsidiaries in 1995. The plaintiffs
allege  that  we breached our purported agreement to construct a casino facility
on  the property by the end of 1995. In December 1998, our motion to dismiss the
complaint  was  granted  by the United States District Court in Denver, Colorado
and  was  affirmed  in  November 2000 by the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals. The
plaintiffs  have now requested a panel hearing before the Tenth Circuit Court of
Appeals.  We  intend  to  vigorously  defend  all  claims and allegations in the
action.

     In  August  1997,  a lawsuit was filed which seeks to nullify a contract to
which  Louisiana  Riverboat  Gaming  Partnership  is  a  party.  Pursuant to the
contract,  Louisiana  Riverboat  Gaming  Partnership  pays a fixed amount plus a
percentage of revenue to various local governmental entities, including the City
of  Bossier  and  the  Bossier  Parish  School  Board,  in  lieu of payment of a
per-passenger  boarding  fee.  Summary  judgment in favor of Louisiana Riverboat
Gaming  Partnership  was granted on June 4, 1998. That judgment was not appealed
and  is  now  final. On June 11, 1998, a similar suit was filed and judgment was
rendered  in  our  favor on September 16, 1999 by the lower court.  The case has
been reversed on appeal and remanded to the lower court for further proceedings.
We  intend  to  vigorously  defend  this  suit.

     Lady  Luck  has  been named as a defendant in a purported shareholder class
action  lawsuit  alleging violations by Lady Luck of the Securities Act of 1933,
as  amended  (the  "Securities Act") and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended  (the  "Exchange  Act"),  for  alleged  material  misrepresentations and
omissions  in  connection  with  Lady  Luck's 1993 prospectus and initial public
offering  of  Common Stock.  The complaint seeks, among other things, injunctive
relief,  rescission  and unspecified compensatory damages.  While the outcome of
this  matter  cannot presently be determined, we intend to vigorously defend the
claims  asserted  in  this  action.

     Lady Luck and particular joint venture partners are defendants in a lawsuit
brought  by  the  country of Greece and its Minister of Tourism before the Greek
Multi-Member  Court  of  First Instance.  The action alleges that the defendants
failed  to  make  specified  payments  in connection with the gaming license bid
process for Patras, Greece.    Although it is difficult to determine the damages
being  sought  from  the  lawsuit,  the  case has been briefed and a preliminary
decision  is  expected  early  summer  2001.  The  outcome of the case cannot be
predicted  with any degree of certainty; however, we intend to vigorously defend
the  claims  asserted  in  this  action.

     Isle of Capri is currently involved in an arbitration proceeding concerning
the  amount  of payments owed to a party which had an interest in property owned
by  the  company located in Lula, Mississippi.  The claimant is seeking payments
based  upon  gross revenue from our Lula, Mississippi facility.  We dispute this
claim and believe that our responsibility is limited to payments which are fixed
in  amount.  We  intend  to  vigorously  defend  the  claim  asserted  in  this
proceeding.

     We  are  engaged  in  various other litigation matters and have a number of
unresolved  claims. Although the ultimate liability of this litigation and these
claims  cannot  be determined at this time, we believe that they will not have a
material  adverse  effect  on  our consolidated financial position or results of
operations.
