Business Description and Basis of Presentation [Text Block] | 1. Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation Basis of Presentation The unaudited consolidated financial statements of Lakes Entertainment, Inc., a Minnesota corporation, and subsidiaries (individually and collectively “Lakes” or the “Company”), have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) applicable to interim financial information. Accordingly, certain information normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States has been condensed and/or omitted. For further information, please refer to the annual audited consolidated financial statements of the Company, and the related notes included within the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 28, 2014, previously filed with the SEC, from which the balance sheet information as of that date is derived. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included (consisting of normal recurring adjustments). The results for the current interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in unconsolidated investees, which were 20% or less owned and the Company did not have the ability to significantly influence the operating or financial decisions of the entity, were accounted for under the cost method. See note 6, Investment in Rock Ohio Ventures, LLC Investment in Dania Entertainment Holdings , LLC Effective September 10, 2014, the Company implemented a 1-for-2 reverse split of its common stock where each two shares of issued and outstanding common stock were converted into one share of common stock. The reverse split reduced the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding from approximately 26.8 million to 13.4 million. The par value of the common stock remains at $0.01 per share and the number of authorized shares of common stock decreased from 200 million to 100 million. Proportional adjustments were also made to the company’s outstanding stock options. All share information presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q gives effect to the reverse stock split. Rocky Gap Casino Resort Lakes owns and operates the Rocky Gap Casino Resort in Allegany County, Maryland (“Rocky Gap”) which it acquired on August 3, 2012 . In connection with the acquisition of Rocky Gap, Lakes entered into a 40-year operating ground lease with the Maryland Department of Natural Resources for approximately 268 acres in the Rocky Gap State Park on which Rocky Gap is situated (see note 15, Commitments and Contingencies opened to the public on May 22, 2013. The gaming facility features 579 video lottery terminals (“VLTs”), 16 table games, two poker tables, a casino bar and a lobby food and beverage outlet. The AAA Four Diamond Award® winning resort also includes an event and conference center that opened during the fourth quarter of 2013, which is able to accommodate large groups and features flexible use meeting rooms. The total cost of the Rocky Gap project was approximately $35.0 million, which included the initial acquisition cost. Pending Merger with Sartini Gaming, Inc. On January 25, 2015, Lakes entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Sartini Gaming, Inc. (“Golden Gaming”), which owns and operates Golden Gaming, LLC. Golden Gaming is a leading owner and operator of distributed gaming, taverns and casinos, all of which are focused on the Nevada local gaming market. At closing, Golden Gaming will combine with a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lakes, with Golden Gaming surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lakes (the “Merger”). Lakes will remain publicly traded and be renamed Golden Entertainment, Inc. upon closing. The legacy Golden Gaming shareholder will be issued shares of Lakes common stock under the Merger Agreement. Lakes’ shareholders at the time of the Merger closing will retain the existing Lakes common stock. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Lakes is valued at $9.57 per share, subject to working capital and various other adjustments under the Merger Agreement. The value of Golden Gaming under the Merger Agreement will be determined by multiplying 7.5 times Golden Gaming’s trailing twelve-month consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (adjusted for non-cash or non-recurring expenses, losses and charges and certain other expenses), less the aggregate principal amount of Golden Gaming’s indebtedness, subject to working capital and various other adjustments under the Merger Agreement. Based on July 31, 2015 financial estimates and assumptions (as of June 28, 2015), the legacy Golden Gaming shareholder would be issued 7,772,736 shares of Lakes common stock and certain Golden Gaming warrant holders would be issued 457,172 shares of Lakes common stock under the Merger Agreement, which would represent a total of approximately 36.8% of the total fully diluted post-merger shares of common stock. The Company’s current shareholders (assuming the exercise of all outstanding options to acquire Lakes common stock) would retain approximately 63.2% of the total fully diluted post-merger shares of Lakes common stock. Completion of the Merger is subject to various customary closing conditions (some of which have been completed as of June 28, 2015), including, but not limited to, (i) approval by Lakes’ shareholders of the issuance of shares of Lakes common stock under the Merger Agreement (ii) certain gaming approvals having been obtained from the relevant gaming authorities, (iii) the absence of any order or injunction prohibiting the consummation of the Merger, (iv) no material adverse effect or other specified adverse events occurring with respect to Lakes or Golden Gaming, (v) the refinancing of certain indebtedness of Golden Gaming, (vi) subject to certain exceptions, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the parties, and (vii) performance and compliance in all material respects with agreements and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement also contains certain termination rights for each of Lakes and Golden Gaming, including if the Merger is not consummated by November 3, 2015 (subject to automatic extension to February 1, 2016 if all conditions to closing other than specified gaming approvals have been satisfied or waived). The Merger Agreement further provides that, upon termination of the Merger Agreement, under specified circumstances, Lakes is required to pay Golden Gaming a cash termination fee of $5.0 million or reimburse Golden Gaming’s transaction expenses up to $0.5 million. In addition, the Merger Agreement provides that, upon termination of the Merger Agreement, under specified circumstances, Golden Gaming will be required to reimburse Lakes’ transaction expenses up to $0.5 million. Contemporaneous with entering into the Merger Agreement, Lakes has also amended and restated its Rights Agreement dated as of December 12, 2013, to preserve its ability to utilize approximately $96.3 million of federal net operating tax loss carryforwards by, among other things, lowering the voting securities ownership threshold of an acquiring person from 15% to 4.99%, and making such other changes which Lakes deemed necessary to effectuate the purposes of the Rights Agreement in light of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. |

Investments in Debt and Marketable Equity Securities (and Certain Trading Assets) Disclosure [Text Block] | 3 . Short-Term Investments Short-term investments consist of commercial paper, corporate bonds and certificates of deposit which are classified as available-for-sale securities and are carried at current fair market value, with the resulting unrealized gains and losses, if any, excluded from earnings and reported, net of tax, as a separate component of shareholders' equity until realized. If the carrying value of an investment is in excess of its fair market value, an impairment charge to adjust the carrying value to the fair market value is recorded if the impairment is considered other-than-temporary. There were no other-than-temporary impairments related to declines in fair market value of short-term investments during the three or six months ended June 28, 2015. All short-term investments held as of June 28, 2015 have original maturity dates of twelve months or less and are classified as current assets.

Cost-method Investments, Description [Text Block] | 6 . Investment in Rock Ohio Ventures, LLC As of December 28, 2014, Lakes had a 10% ownership interest in Rock Ohio Ventures, LLC (“Rock Ohio Ventures”), a privately-held company, that owned 80% of the Horseshoe Casino Cleveland in Cleveland, Ohio; the Horseshoe Casino Cincinnati in Cincinnati, Ohio; the Thistledown Racino in North Randall, Ohio; and Turfway Park, a thoroughbred horseracing track located in Florence, Kentucky. This investment was accounted for using the cost method since Lakes owned less than 20% of Rock Ohio Ventures and did not have the ability to significantly influence the operating and financial decisions of the entity. Lakes invested a total of $21.0 million in Rock Ohio Ventures. This investment was determined to have experienced an other-than-temporary impairment and was reduced to its estimated fair value of zero during the third quarter of 2014. As a result, Lakes recognized an impairment loss of $21.0 million during the third quarter of 2014. Effective January 25, 2015, Lakes sold all of its interest in Rock Ohio Ventures to DG Ohio Ventures, LLC for approximately $0.8 million. Because this investment had been written down to zero, Lakes recognized a gain on sale of cost method investment of approximately $0.8 million during the first quarter of 2015. This cost method investment was evaluated, on at least a quarterly basis, for potential other-than-temporary impairment, or when an event or change in circumstances occurred that may have had a significant adverse effect on the fair value of the investment. Lakes monitored this investment for impairment by considering all information available to the Company including the economic environment of the markets served by the properties Rock Ohio Ventures owns; market conditions including existing and potential future competition; recent or expected changes in the regulatory environment; operational performance and financial results; known changes in the objectives of Rock Ohio Venture’s management; known or expected changes in ownership of Rock Ohio Ventures; and any other known significant factors relating to the business underlying the investment. As part of the review of operational performance and financial results for considering if there were indications of impairment, the Company utilized financial statements of Rock Ohio Ventures and its owned gaming properties to assess the investee’s ability to operate from a financial standpoint. The Company also analyzed Rock Ohio Ventures’ cash flows and working capital to determine if the Company’s investment in this entity had experienced an other-than-temporary impairment. As part of this process, the Company analyzed actual historical results compared to forecast and had periodic discussions with management of Rock Ohio Ventures to obtain additional information related to the Company’s investment in Rock Ohio Ventures to determine whether any events have occurred that would necessitate further analysis of the Company’s recorded investment in Rock Ohio Ventures for impairment. Based on these procedures, Lakes determined that the Company’s investment in Rock Ohio Ventures experienced an other-than-temporary impairment during the third quarter of 2014. Based on information provided by Rock Ohio Ventures, Lakes determined that there was significant uncertainty surrounding the recovery of Lakes’ investment in Rock Ohio Ventures. The Ohio gaming properties had not performed as expected which led to forecasted potential working capital requirement issues that did not exist prior to the third quarter of 2014, based on information previously available to Lakes. As a result, Lakes determined that an other-than-temporary impairment had occurred and reduced the carrying value of the investment in Rock Ohio Ventures to its estimated fair value of zero during the third quarter of 2014. The fair value of the Company’s cost method investment in Rock Ohio Ventures was estimated to be approximately $0.8 million as of December 28, 2014 based on the January 2015 selling price of this investment.

Note 6 - Investment in Rock Ohio Ventures, LLC [Line Items] | |
Cost-method Investments, Description [Text Block] | 7. Investment in Dania Entertainment Holdings, LLC On May 22, 2013, Dania Entertainment Center, LLC (“DEC”) purchased the Dania Jai Alai property located in Dania Beach, Florida, from Boyd Gaming Corporation, for $65.5 million. As part of a previous plan to purchase the property, during 2011 Lakes loaned $4.0 million to DEC (the “Loan”) which was written down to zero during the third quarter of 2011 when the acquisition did not close. During 2013, the Loan was exchanged for a 20% ownership interest in Dania Entertainment Holdings, LLC (“DEH”). The Company accounted for its investment in DEH as a cost method investment. At the time the Loan was exchanged for an equity investment in DEH, Lakes determined its value remained at zero due to the negative cash flows of the existing operations of the Dania Jai Alai property as well as uncertainty surrounding completion of the project. Therefore, there was no value recorded for this investment at the time the Loan was exchanged for an equity investment in DEH. On April 21, 2014, Lakes entered into a redemption agreement with DEH that resulted in DEH redeeming Lakes’ 20% ownership in DEH in exchange for DEH granting to Lakes 5% ownership in DEC. Concurrently, Lakes entered into an agreement with ONDISS Corp. (“ONDISS”) to sell its ownership in DEC for approximately $2.6 million. Lakes received $1.0 million on April 21, 2014 in exchange for 40% of its ownership. On October 17, 2014, ONDISS paid the entire remaining amount due to Lakes at a discounted amount of approximately $1.4 million. Upon receipt of such payment, Lakes transferred its remaining ownership in DEC to ONDISS. As a result, Lakes recognized a gain on sale of cost method investment of $2.4 million during the year ended December 28, 2014. |

Real Estate Disclosure [Text Block] | 8 . Land Lakes owns parcels of undeveloped land related to its previous involvement in a potential casino project with the Jamul Indian Village (the “Jamul Tribe”) near San Diego, California. During the third quarter of 2012, Lakes entered into a ten-year option agreement with Penn National Gaming, Inc. (“Penn National”), which was subsequently amended on May 15, 2014. The amended agreement grants Penn National the right to purchase this land for $5.5 million and requires Penn National to purchase the land within ten days after the Jamul Tribe opens a casino on its reservation. Annual option payments of less than $0.1 million are required to be made by Penn National to Lakes. As of June 28, 2015 and December 28, 2014, this land is carried at approximately $1.0 million on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company performs an impairment analysis on the land it owns at least quarterly and determined that no impairment had occurred as of June 28, 2015 and December 28, 2014. |

Debt Disclosure [Text Block] | 9 . Debt Financing Facility In December 2012, Lakes closed on a $17.5 million financing facility with Centennial Bank (the “Financing Facility”) to finance a portion of Rocky Gap project costs. Approximately $13.4 million has been drawn on the Financing Facility, which is collateralized by the leasehold estate and the furniture, fixtures and equipment of Rocky Gap. In addition, Lakes guaranteed repayment of the loan. Effective November 1, 2013, Lakes amended the Financing Facility with Centennial Bank to reduce the interest rate from 10.5% to 5.5%. Monthly payments of principal and interest began on December 1, 2013 and continue for 84 months. Although Lakes does not currently plan to make further draws on the Financing Facility, Lakes has the ability to draw the remaining $4.1 million on the Financing Facility through December 31, 2018. As of June 28, 2015 and December 28, 2014, $10.8 million and $11.7 million of principal was outstanding under the Financing Facility, respectively. As a result of the amendment of the Financing Facility with Centennial Bank effective November 1, 2013, Lakes recorded a $1.7 million gain on modification of debt during the fourth quarter of 2013. This amount included $2.0 million recorded as a discount to the principal amount of the Financing Facility, which is being accreted to interest expense over the term of the Financing Facility using the effective interest method, and $0.3 million of original debt issuance costs expensed at the time of the amendment. Accretion of the discount to interest expense was approximately $0.1 million for each of the three months ended June 28, 2015 and June 29, 2014, and $0.2 million for each of the six months ended June 28, 2015 and June 29, 2014. Summary of Outstanding Debt Long-term debt, net of current maturities and discount, is comprised of the following (in thousands): June 28, 2015 December 28 , 2014 Financing Facility $ 10,844 $ 11,691 Capital lease obligations — 50 Total debt 10,844 11,741 Less: current maturities, net of discount (1,361 ) (1,368 ) Less: unamortized debt discount (1,210 ) (1,432 ) Long-term debt, net of current maturities and discount $ 8,273 $ 8,941 |

Share-Based Compensation Share-based compensation expense related to stock options for the three and six months ended June 28, 2015 and June 29, 2014 were as follows (in thousands): Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 28 , 2015 June 29, 2014 June 28 , 2015 June 29, 2014 Total cost of share-based payment plans $ 59 $ 72 $ 119 $ 143 The Company uses the Black Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value and compensation cost associated with employee incentive stock options which requires the consideration of historical employee exercise behavior data and the use of a number of assumptions including volatility of the Company’s stock price, the weighted average risk-free interest rate and the weighted average expected life of the options. There were zero options granted during the three and six months ended June 28, 2015. There were 3,000 and 8,000 options granted during the three and six months ended June 29, 2014, respectively. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of the stock options issued during the three and six months ended June 29, 2014 was $4.81 and $4.91, respectively. The following table summarizes Lakes’ stock option activity during the six months ended June 28, 2015 and June 29, 2014: Number of Common Shares Options Outstanding Exercisable Available for Grant Weighted-Average Exercise Price 201 5 Balance at December 28, 2014 755,617 616,792 276,635 $ 6.09 (2,500 ) — 6.14 Balance at June 28, 2015 753,117 678,870 276,635 6.09 201 4 Balance at December 29, 2013 798,171 585,769 263,424 $ 5.97 Forfeited/cancelled/expired (20,211 ) 19,211 4.95 Exercised (27,843 ) — 4.75 Granted 8,000 (8,000 ) 9.44 Balance at June 29, 2014 758,117 605,141 274,635 6.08 As of June 28, 2015, the options outstanding had a weighted average remaining contractual life of 5.3 years, weighted average exercise price of $6.09 and aggregate intrinsic value of $2.3 million. The options exercisable have a weighted average exercise price of $6.03, a weighted average remaining contractual life of 5.1 years and aggregate intrinsic value of $2.1 million as of June 28, 2015. There were zero and 2,500 options exercised during the three and six months ended June 28, 2015, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the six months ended June 28, 2015 was less than $0.1 million. There were 24,343 and 27,843 options exercised during the three and six months ended June 29, 2014. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during each of the three and six months ended June 29, 2014 was $0.1 million. Lakes’ unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to stock options was approximately $0.2 million as of June 28, 2015, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.9 years. Lakes issues new shares of common stock upon the exercise of options. |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings Per Share [Text Block] | 1 2 . Earnings (Loss) per Share For all periods, basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted-average common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS in profitable periods reflects the effect of all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding by dividing net earnings by the weighted-average of all common and potentially dilutive shares outstanding. Potentially dilutive stock options of 753,117 for each of the three and six months ended June 28, 2015 and 508,721 and 758,119 for the three and six months ended June 29, 2014, respectively, were not used to compute diluted earnings (loss) per share because the effects would have been anti-dilutive. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | 13. Income Taxes Income tax expense was $0.2 million for the six months ended June 28, 2015, which was attributed entirely to alternative minimum tax. There was no income tax benefit for the six months ended June 29, 2014 because there is no remaining potential to carry back losses to prior years and future realization of the benefit is uncertain. The Company’s effective tax rate was (9.9)% and 0% for the six months ended June 28, 2015 and June 29, 2014, respectively. For the six months ended June 28, 2015, the effective tax rate differs from the federal tax rate of 35% due to the alternative minimum tax, permanent differences and the limitation of the income tax benefit due to the uncertainty of its future realization. For the six months ended June 29, 2014, the effective tax rate differs from the federal tax rate of 35% primarily due to the limitation of the income tax benefit due to the uncertainty of its future realization. Lakes has recorded income taxes receivable of $2.1 million and $2.2 million as of June 28, 2015 and December 28, 2014, respectively, related to the Company’s ability to carry back 2012 taxable losses to a prior year and receive a refund of taxes previously paid. Deferred tax assets are evaluated by considering historical levels of income, estimates of future taxable income and the impact of tax planning strategies. Management has evaluated all available evidence and has determined that negative evidence continues to outweigh positive evidence for the realization of deferred tax assets and as a result continues to provide a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets as of June 28, 2015. The Company is currently under IRS audit for the 2009-2013 tax years and the IRS has proposed certain adjustments to the tax filings for those years. However, Lakes believes it is more likely than not that it will prevail in challenging the proposed adjustments and maintains that the positions taken were proper and supported by applicable laws and regulations. Lakes does not believe, when resolved, that this dispute will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements. However, an unexpected adverse resolution could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements in a particular quarter or fiscal year. During the second quarter of 2015, the Company was notified by the State of California that their audit of Lakes for the 2010 tax year had been completed and resulted in no adjustments. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block] | 1 4 . Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements Overview Estimates of fair value for financial assets and liabilities are based on the framework established in the accounting guidance for fair value measurements. The framework defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value, and requires certain disclosures. The framework discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow) and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). The framework utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels: ● Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. ● Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. ● Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions. The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, cost method investments, accounts payable and debt. For the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and current portion of debt, the carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short duration of these financial instruments. As of June 28, 2015 and December 28, 2014, the fair value of the Company’s long-term debt approximates the carrying value based upon the Company’s expected borrowing rate for debt with similar remaining maturities and comparable risk. Balances Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis The following table (in thousands) shows certain of the Company’s financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 2 inputs, as they are priced principally by independent pricing services using observable inputs: June 28, 2015 December 28, 2014 Short-Term Investments Commercial paper $ 6,988 $ 23,984 Corporate bonds 33,605 21,693 Certificates of deposit — 961 Balances Disclosed at Fair Value Cost Method Investment – Investment in Rock Ohio Ventures, LLC (see note 6, Investment in Rock Ohio Ventures, LLC |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block] | 1 5 . Commitments and Contingencies Operating Lease with the Maryland Department of Natural Resources Related to Rocky Gap In connection with the closing of the acquisition of Rocky Gap, Lakes entered into a 40-year operating ground lease (the “Lease Agreement”) with the Maryland Department of Natural Resources for approximately 268 acres in the Rocky Gap State Park on which Rocky Gap is situated. The Lease Agreement contains an option to renew for 20 years after the initial 40-year term. From August 3, 2012 and until the casino opened for public play on May 22, 2013, rent in the form of surcharges was due and payable with a minimum annual payment of $150,000. From May 22, 2013 through the remaining term of the Lease Agreement, rent payments are due and payable annually in the amount of $275,000 plus 0.9% of any gross operator share of gaming revenue (as defined in the Lease Agreement) in excess of $275,000, and $150,000 plus any surcharge revenue in excess of $150,000. Surcharge revenue consists of amounts billed to and collected from guests and are $3.00 per room per night and $1.00 per round of golf. Rent expense associated with the Lease Agreement was $0.1 million, net of surcharge revenues, for each of the three months ended June 28, 2015 and June 29, 2014, and $0.2 million, net of surcharge revenues, for each of the six months ended June 28, 2015 and June 29, 2014. Future minimum lease payments under the Lease Agreement at June 28, 2015 are as follows (in thousands): 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 Thereafter Minimum lease payment $ 425 $ 425 $ 425 $ 425 $ 425 $ 13,175 Jerry Argovitz Litigation On March 12, 2014, Lakes received a demand for arbitration from Jerry Argovitz (“Argovitz”) relating to a Consent and Agreement to Buyout and Release by and between Argovitz and Lakes KAR Shingle Springs, LLC (“LKAR”), Lakes Entertainment, Inc., and Lakes Shingle Springs, Inc. dated January 30, 2003 (“Buyout Agreement”). The Buyout Agreement provided that LKAR was to make certain payments to Argovitz for so long as LKAR was managing the Red Hawk Casino for the Shingle Springs Tribe. Lakes made the payments required under the Buyout Agreement while it was managing the Red Hawk Casino, and discontinued the payments after its management contract to manage the Red Hawk Casino was terminated. Argovitz asserted claims for breach of the Buyout Agreement and the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing relating to the payments he alleged he was entitled to receive after the management agreement was terminated. He sought damages of approximately $2.7 million, plus interest, costs, and attorney fees. On September 9, 2014, Argovitz was awarded approximately $2.4 million related to the arbitration action brought by Argovitz against Lakes. As a result, Lakes recognized charges related to arbitration award in its consolidated statement of operations of approximately $2.5 million during the third quarter of 2014, which included the $2.4 million award and $0.1 million of legal fees. The action is now closed and no further claims can be made by Argovitz related to this matter. Quest Media Group, LLC Litigation On May 17, 2012, Lakes received service of a breach of contract lawsuit filed in the Franklin County Court of Common Pleas, Franklin County, Ohio by Quest Media Group, LLC (“Quest”) with respect to an agreement (the “Agreement”) entered into between Lakes Ohio Development, LLC (a wholly owned subsidiary of Lakes) (“Lakes Ohio Development”) and Quest on March 9, 2010. The Agreement related to Quest assisting Lakes Ohio Development in partnering with Rock Ohio Ventures, LLC and Penn Ventures, LLC (“Penn Ventures”) with respect to funding the proposed citizen-initiated referendum in November 2009 to amend the Ohio constitution to permit one casino each in Cleveland, Cincinnati, Toledo and Columbus, Ohio. The lawsuit alleged, among other things, that Lakes breached the Agreement by selling Lakes Ohio Development’s interest in the Toledo and Columbus, Ohio casino projects to Penn Ventures, failing to pay the proper fee to Quest as a result of such sale, and incorrectly calculating the costs that were to be offset against Quest’s fee. The lawsuit sought unspecified compensatory damages in excess of $25,000, punitive damages, declaratory and injunctive relief. The lawsuit named as defendants Lakes Entertainment, Inc., Lakes Ohio Development, LLC and Lyle Berman, Chairman and CEO of Lakes. Lakes removed the case to federal court, answered the pleadings and filed a motion to dismiss the claims against all defendants. Prior to the judge’s ruling on the motion to dismiss, the parties settled all but one of Quest’s claims (including obtaining a dismissal of Lyle Berman from the lawsuit) at no out-of-pocket expense to Lakes. The judge granted Lakes’ motion to dismiss and dismissed the remaining claims against Lakes. Quest subsequently appealed the dismissal to the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals. On June 17, 2015, Lakes settled the lawsuit by paying Quest $325,000. No further claims can be made by Quest related to this matter. Employment Agreements Lakes has entered into employment agreements with certain key employees of the Company. The agreements provide for certain benefits to the employee as well as severance if the employee is terminated without cause or due to a “constructive termination” as defined in the agreements. The severance amounts depend upon the term of the agreement and can be up to two years of base salary and two years of bonus calculated as the average bonus earned in the previous two years. If such termination occurs within three years of a change of control as defined in the agreements by the Company without cause or due to a constructive termination, the employee will receive a lump sum payment equal to two times the annual base salary and bonus/incentive compensation along with insurance costs, 401(k) matching contributions and certain other benefits. In the event the employee’s employment terminates for any reason, including death, disability, expiration of an initial term, non-renewal by the Company with or without cause, by the employee with notice, or due to constructive termination, all unvested stock options vest at the date of termination and remain exercisable for three years. The Company is expected to perform on these agreements if the pending Merger with Golden Gaming closes. The agreements provide for a base salary, bonus, stock options and other customary benefits. Retention Bonus and Severance Agreements On March 30, 2015, Lakes provided Retention Bonus and Severance Agreements (“Severance Agreements”) to 14 of its employees. These Severance Agreements are contingent upon closing of the Merger. Pursuant to these Severance Agreements, Lakes estimates that it will recognize an estimated charge of $2.8 million, representing cash payments and non-cash expenses related to stock vesting acceleration. All of the payments due under these agreements are anticipated to be paid within 30 days after closing of the Merger. Merger Costs Lakes expects to incur a total of approximately $10.0 million in costs associated with the proposed Merger, the majority of which are contingent upon the closing of the Merger. The $10.0 million includes the employment, retention bonus and severance agreements discussed above in addition to legal, financial advisor, accounting and consulting costs. Lakes has incurred approximately $1.8 million of the expected $10.0 million total transaction related costs as of June 28, 2015, of which approximately $1.3 million was incurred during the six months ended June 28, 2015. Shareholder Class Action Lawsuits On February 6, 2015, Lakes, the members of the Lakes’ Board of Directors, LG Acquisition Corporation, Sartini Gaming, Inc., and the Blake L. Sartini and Delise F. Sartini Family Trust were named as defendants in three complaints filed in the District Court of the State of Minnesota, Fourth Judicial District in Hennepin County. The cases are captioned James Orr, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, as Plaintiff, vs. Lakes Entertainment, Inc., LG Acquisition Corporation, Sartini Gaming, Inc., Lyle A. Berman, Timothy J. Cope, Larry C. Barenbaum, Neil I. Sell, Ray M. Moberg, and the Blake L. Sartini and Delise F. Sartini Family Trust, as Defendants; Anthony Dacquisito, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, as Plaintiff vs. Larry Barenbaum, Lyle Berman, Neil Sell, Ray Moberg, Timothy Cope, LG Acquisition Corporation, Sartini Gaming, Inc., and the Blake L. Sartini and Delise F. Sartini Family Trust, as Defendants; and David Lehr and Pamela Lehr, as Plaintiffs, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated vs. Larry Barenbaum, Lyle Berman, Neil Sell, Ray Moberg, Timothy Cope, LG Acquisition Corporation, Sartini Gaming, Inc., and the Blake L. Sartini and Delise F. Sartini Family Trust, as Defendants. These are purported shareholder class action lawsuits brought by certain of Lakes’ shareholders on behalf of themselves and others similarly situated, alleging that in entering into the proposed transaction with Golden Gaming, the Defendants have breached their fiduciary duties of good faith, loyalty and due care, and/or have aided and abetted such breaches. The Plaintiffs seek, among other things, to enjoin the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and attorney’s fees. On April 20, 2015, the plaintiffs filed an Amended Consolidated Class Action Complaint consolidating all pending actions arising out of the Merger. In response to the lawsuits, Lakes’ Board of Directors appointed a special litigation committee (the “SLC”) pursuant to Minnesota law to investigate the claims alleged by the plaintiffs. On June 8, 2015, the judge in the matter denied the plaintiffs’ request for expedited proceedings and stayed the lawsuit until the conclusion of the SLC investigation and the issuance of its determinations. An unfavorable outcome in this lawsuit could result in substantial costs to Lakes. It is also possible that other lawsuits may yet be filed and Lakes cannot estimate any possible loss from this or future litigation at this time. Miscellaneous Legal Matters Lakes and its subsidiaries are involved in various other inquiries, administrative proceedings, and litigation relating to contracts and other matters arising in the normal course of business. While any proceeding or litigation has an element of uncertainty, and although unable to estimate the minimum costs, if any, to be incurred in connection with these matters, management currently believes that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is remote, and is not likely to have a material adverse effect upon Lakes’ unaudited consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, no provision has been made with regard to these matters. |

Segment Information Lakes’ segments reported below (in millions) are the segments of the Company for which separate financial information is available and for which operating results are evaluated by the chief operating decision-maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Rocky Gap segment includes results of operations and assets related to the Rocky Gap Casino Resort near Cumberland, Maryland. The Other segment includes Lakes’ cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, Lakes corporate overhead and the investment in Rock Ohio Ventures. Costs in Other have not been allocated to the other segments because these costs are not easily allocable and to do so would not be practical.
