	(c)	The accountant’s statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12b-25(c) has been attached if applicable.

PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

Alliance Gaming Corporation (the “Company”) hereby requests an extension of time to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2005 (the “December 31 Form 10-Q”). As previously disclosed, the Company was unable to file the December 31 Form 10-Q by February 9, 2006, without unreasonable effort or expense, primarily because additional time is required in order to finalize the extensive accounting and review procedures being performed by the Company and its consultants in connection with both its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2005 and the December 31 Form 10-Q. The procedures being performed by the Company and its consultants are consistent with the procedures implemented as part of the Company’s recently completed year end closing process. The Company continues to dedicate significant resources to the preparation and finalization of both filings and currently anticipates that both filings will be made by March 24, 2006.

SEC 1344 (03-05)

	Steven Des Champs	(702)	270-7600
	(Name)	(Area Code)	(Telephone Number)

(2)	Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed ? If answer is no, identify report(s).

			o Yes ý No
	Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2005

(3)	Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?

			ý Yes o No

	If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

Although the Company cannot quantify the results of operations for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2005 until it has finalized both the accounting and review procedures being performed by the Company and the preparation of the December 31 Form 10-Q, the Company does anticipate an improvement in the results of operations for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2005, as compared to the results of operations for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2004.
