Item 1.  
Security and Issuer

This Schedule 13D relates to the Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock"), of Scientific Games Corporation (f/k/a Autotote Corporation), a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"). The address of the principal executive office of the Issuer is 750 Lexington Avenue, 25th Floor, New York, New York 10022.


Item 2.  Identity and Background

This Schedule 13D is filed on behalf of:

(1)
Oaktree Capital Management, LLC, a California limited liability company ("Oaktree"), in its capacity as general partner of the Opportunities Fund and the Principal Opportunities Fund (see below);

(2)
OCM Opportunities Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the "Opportunities Fund"); and

(3)
OCM Principal Opportunities Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the "Principal Fund" and, together with the Opportunities Fund, collectively, the "Funds").

The principal business of Oaktree is providing investment advice and management services to institutional and individual investors. The Opportunities Fund is a limited partnership which generally invests in the securities and other obligations of distressed entities. The Principal Opportunities Fund is a limited partnership which generally invests in entities in which there is a potential for the fund to exercise significant influence over such entities. Oaktree is also the investment manager of a third party account (the "Oaktree Account") which invests in securities similar to those in which the Opportunities Fund invests. Based on Oaktree's relationship with the Funds and the Oaktree Account, Oaktree may be deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock held by both the Funds and the Oaktree Account.

(a)-(c) & (f)

Oaktree is the general partner of each of the Funds. The address of the principal business and principal office for Oaktree, the Funds and the portfolio managers is 333 South Grand Avenue, 28th Floor, Los Angeles, California 90071.

Page 7 of  9 Pages


Item 4.  
Purpose of Transaction

The shares of the Issuer's Common Stock described herein were acquired for investment purposes and for the purposes set forth below.

Oaktree, as the general partner of the Funds, will evaluate the Issuer's businesses and prospects, alternative investment opportunities and all other factors deemed relevant in determining whether to acquire or dispose of additional shares of the Issuer's Common Stock. The investment strategy of the Opportunities Fund is generally to invest in the securities and other obligations of distressed entities. The investment strategy of the Principal Opportunities Fund is generally to invest in entities in which there is a potential to exercise significant influence over such entities. Some or all of the shares of the Issuer's Common Stock beneficially owned by Oaktree and the Funds may be sold, or additional shares of Common Stock may be acquired in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. Oaktree currently has no agreements, beneficially or otherwise, which would be related to or would result in any of the matters described in Items 4(a)-(j) of Schedule 13D; however, as part of its ongoing review of investment alternatives, Oaktree may consider such matters in the future and, subject to applicable law, may formulate a plan with respect to such matters, and, from time to time, Oaktree may hold discussions with or make formal proposals to management or the Board of Directors of the Issuer, other shareholders of the Issuer or other third parties regarding such matters.


Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer

    (a)
    As of the date of this Schedule 13D, the Opportunities Fund owns and has sole power to vote and dispose of 4,785,492 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (approximately 11.83% of the outstanding shares of the Issuer's Common Stock).

      As of the date of this Schedule 13D, the Principal Opportunities Fund owns and has sole power to vote and dispose of 0 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock.

      As of the date of this Schedule 13D, Oaktree, in its capacity as the general partner of the Funds and manager of the Oaktree Account, may be deemed to beneficially own 4,933,500 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (approximately 12.19% of the outstanding shares of the Issuer's Common Stock).

    (b)
    Oaktree has discretionary authority and control over all of the assets of the Funds and the Oaktree Account pursuant to its status as general partner of the Funds and investment manager of the Oaktree Account, including the power to vote and dispose of the Issuer's Common Stock. Therefore, Oaktree has the power to vote and dispose of 4,933,500 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock.

      Page 8 of  9 Pages

    (c)
    On December 13, 2001, the Principal Opportunities Fund sold 745,200 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock in the open market at a price of $7.25 per share.

    (d)
    During the last 60 days, neither the Opportunities Fund, the Oaktree Account nor the Principal Opportunities Fund has purchased any shares of the Issuer's Common Stock.

      Oaktree, as general partner of the Funds and investment manager of the Oaktree Account, may be deemed to beneficially own the shares of the Issuer's Common Stock which are owned by the Funds and the Oaktree Account. Oaktree and each of the individuals listed in Item 2 disclaims ownership of the shares of the Issuer's Common Stock reported herein and the filing of this Statement shall not be construed as an admission that any such person is the beneficial owner of any securities covered by this statement. Other than these transactions, neither the Funds nor Oaktree and, to the best of their knowledge, none of their respective executive officers, directors or general partners has effected any transaction involving the Issuer's Common Stock during the last 60 days.

    (e)
    None

    (f)
    Not applicable

Except as described above and herein in this Schedule 13D, there are no other contracts, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the parties named in Item 2 hereto and between such persons and any person with respect to any of the securities of the Issuer currently owned by the Funds.
