merger into a subsidiary of the Morongo Band of Mission Indians ("Morongo Sub") because it will contain important information. Investors and security holders may obtain a free copy of the definitive

following communications contain forward-looking statements that are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the
"safe-harbor" provisions of the private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are made based on management's current expectations or beliefs as well as assumptions made by, and
information currently available to, management. A variety of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in Full House's forward-looking statements, including the
following factors: Full House's ability to consummate the merger, including obtaining stockholder approval, regulatory approval, approval of the general membership of the Morongo tribe and other
third-party consents; general market and economic conditions; and changes in Federal, state, and local laws and regulations, including gaming license legislation and regulations. Certain of these and
other applicable risks, cautionary statements and factors that could cause actual results to differ from Full House's forward-looking statements are included in Full House's filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, specifically in the "risk-factors" section of Full House's Form&nbsp;10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002. </FONT></P>

<P ALIGN="CENTER"><FONT SIZE=3><B><I>FULL HOUSE RESORTS AND MORONGO BAND OF MISSION INDIANS<BR>
ANNOUNCE PROPOSED MERGER</I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;LAS VEGAS, NV and BANNING, CA, July&nbsp;30, 2003&#151;Full House Resorts,&nbsp;Inc. (OTCBB: FHRI) and the Morongo Band of Mission
Indians, a federally-recognized California Indian tribe, announced today that they have entered into a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which a subsidiary of the Morongo tribe will acquire Full
House Resorts. In the merger, each Full House Resorts common shareholder will receive $1.30 for each share of Full House Resorts common stock and each holder of its Series&nbsp;1992-1
Preferred Stock will receive $6.15 per share of preferred stock. The transaction values Full House Resorts at $20.1&nbsp;million, including the assumption of $2.4&nbsp;million of debt. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Morongo tribe intends to fund the consideration from cash reserves and existing credit facilities. The transaction, which is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2003, is
subject to shareholder approval by Full House Resorts, approval by the general membership of the Morongo tribe, the gaming commission and any other necessary regulatory approval and other customary
closing conditions. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"This
is an excellent opportunity for our shareholders," said William McComas, Chairman and CEO of Full House Resorts. "They will receive a significant premium to the market price for
their shares." </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"Morongo
has sought ways to continue to diversify its economic ventures and this investment will allow us to bring our gaming management expertise and experience to bear in new markets,"
said Morongo tribal chairman Maurice Lyons. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;CIBC
World Markets Corp. is acting as exclusive financial advisor to Full House Resorts for the merger transaction. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>About Full House Resorts  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Full House Resorts,&nbsp;Inc. develops and manages gaming facilities. Full House Resorts manages Midway Slots and Simulcast at the Delaware State Fairgrounds in
Harrington, Delaware. Midway Slots and Simulcast has a total of approximately 1,400 gaming devices, a 450-seat buffet, a 50-seat diner and an entertainment lounge area. Full
House Resorts is also involved in the development of a tribal project in Battle Creek, Michigan. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>About the Morongo Tribe  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A pioneer in Indian gaming, the Morongo Band of Mission Indians began gaming as a means of economic development in 1983. A 1987 Supreme Court case, led by the
Morongo and Cabazon tribes, confirmed the right of American Indian tribes to offer gaming on Indian reservations. Subsequently, Morongo's casino facility blossomed from a modest bingo hall into one of
the nation's top gaming properties. Casino Morongo is not only one of the largest and oldest tribal casinos in the country, but the first in California to offer slots machines after the passage of
Proposition 1A. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Morongo tribe broke ground in May of this year on a new $250&nbsp;million, world-class casino resort hotel on the Morongo Indian Reservation. When complete, it will be one of the
largest recreational gaming destinations on the West Coast. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
National Indian Gaming Commission reports that in 2002 that 330 tribal casinos operating in 29 states generated more than $14.4&nbsp;billion in revenues. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Forward Looking Statements  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Certain matters discussed in this press release constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Although Full House
Resorts and the Morongo tribe believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, they can give no assurance that their expectations will
be achieved. Factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from current expectations include: the ability of the parties to consummate the merger, including obtaining stockholder approval, approval of the general membership of the Morongo
tribe, regulatory approval and other third-party consents, general market and economic conditions; changes in Federal, state, and local laws and regulations, including environmental and gaming license
legislation and regulations; and other risks, which are described in Full House Resorts' Form&nbsp;10-KSB, which is on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</FONT><FONT
SIZE=2><B>Investors and security holders are urged to read the proxy statement regarding the business combination transaction referenced in this press release, when it
