FULL HOUSE RESORTS ANNOUNCES STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM

Las Vegas, Nevada – July 7, 2008 – Full House Resorts (AMEX: FLL) (the “Company”) announced today that its Board of Directors has authorized a program to repurchase up to $1,000,000 worth of shares of the Company’s common stock.

These repurchases will be made in open market or in privately negotiated transactions from time to time in compliance with Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements and other factors. This plan does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock and the plan may be suspended at any time at the Company’s discretion.

“The Board of Directors believes that Full House’s common stock is undervalued in the marketplace and represents a sound investment at its recent trading prices,” said Full House Chief Executive Officer Andre Hilliou. “While the Company continues to pursue acquisitions as previously announced, management and the Board of Directors believe this is a prudent use of a modest amount of our excess cash. The Board and management are confident in the future of Full House and believe this repurchase program to be in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders.”
