RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“ FASB ”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014 ‑09”). The objective of ASU 2014-09 is to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard for US GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2014 ‑09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. In July 2015, the FASB decided to defer for one year the effective date of ASU 2014-09, which will extend the effective date for public entities to annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and to permit early adoption of the standard as of the original effective date of ASU 2014-09. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014 ‑09, but does not expect the standard to have a significant effect on its consolidated financial statements. In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (“ASU 2014-15”). The objective of ASU 2014-15 is to provide guidance on management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. ASU 2014-15 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2016, and annual and interim periods thereafter. The Company has assessed the new standard and does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, Income Statement – Extraordinary and Unusual Items: Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items (“ASU 2015-01”). The objective of ASU 2015-01 is to eliminate from US GAAP the concept of an extraordinary item. ASU 2015-01 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company has assessed the new standard and does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (“ASU 2015-02”). The objective of ASU 2015-02 is to change the consolidation analysis required under US GAAP. ASU 2015-02 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2015, and annual and interim periods thereafter. Early adoption of ASU 2015-02 is permitted. The Company is continuing to assess the new standard but does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). The objective of ASU 2015-03 is to present debt issuance costs as a direct deduction from the related debt liability. ASU 2015-03 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of ASU 2015-03 is permitted. The Company is continuing to assess the new standard but does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05, Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement (“ASU 2015-05”).

Goodwill And Intangible Assets [Abstract]
Goodwill And Intangible Assets	5 . GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS Goodwill We test goodwill for impairment as of October 1 each year, or more frequently as circumstances indicate it is necessary. Testing compares the estimated fair values of our reporting units to the reporting units’ carrying values. Our reporting units with goodwill balances as of June 30, 2015 include our Edmonton casino property and our CDR and CPL operations. We consider a variety of factors when estimating the fair value of our reporting units, including estimates about the future operating results of each reporting unit, multiples of earnings, various market analyses, and recent sales of comparable businesses, if such information is available to us. The Company makes a variety of estimates and judgments about the relevance and comparability of these factors to the reporting units in estimating their fair values. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, the fair value of each reporting unit is allocated to the reporting unit’s assets and liabilities to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill and whether impairment is necessary. No impairment charges related to goodwill have been recorded at our Edmonton property, CDR or CPL . Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill related to the Company’s Edmonton property, CDR and CPL for the six months ended June 30, 2015 are as follows: Canada Poland Amounts in thousands Edmonton Century Downs Casinos Poland Total Balance – January 1, 2015 $ $ $ $ Effect of foreign currency translation Balance -- June 30, 2015 $ $ $ $ Intangible Assets Trademarks The Company currently owns two trademarks, the Century Casinos trademark and the Casinos Poland trademark , which are reported as intangible asset s on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Rather, the Company tests its trademarks for impairment annually or more frequently as circumstances indicate it is necessary. The Company tests trademarks for impairment using the relief-from-royalty method. If the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount, the Company would recognize an impairment charge equal to the difference. No impairment charges related to the Company’s Century Casinos and Casinos Poland trademarks have been recorded. Casino Licenses Casinos Poland Casinos Poland currently has nine casino licenses , each with an original term of six years , which are reported as finite-lived intangible assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets . I n June 2014, the Casinos Poland management board decided to suspend operations at the Sosnowiec casino for a limited time . The casino reopened on a limited basis in February 2015, and we expect the casino will continue limited operations until its gaming license expires in May 2017. Based on the decision to suspend operations in June 2014 , the Company evaluated the carrying amount of the Sosnowiec casino license and impaired the Sosnowiec casino license and charged $0.2 million to operating costs and expenses in the second quarter of 2014 . Changes in the carrying amount of the Casinos Poland licenses for the six months ended June 30, 2015 are as follows: Amounts in thousands Casinos Poland Balance – January 1, 2015 $ Amortization Effect of foreign currency translation Balance -- June 30, 2015 $ As of June 30, 2015 , estimated amortization expense for the CPL casino licenses over the next five years is as follows: Amounts in thousands 2015 $ 2016 2017 2018 2019 $ Such estimates do not reflect the impact of future foreign exchange rate changes or the renewal of the licenses.

The licenses were issued in November 2013 pending final approval of the REC project from the AGLC. The AGLC granted the final approval for the licenses on March 19, 2015. The licenses are reported as indefinite lived intangible asset s on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet s . No impairment charges related to the CDR license s have been recorded.

PROMOTIONAL ALLOWANCE S Hotel accommodations, bowling, food and beverage furnished without charge to customers are included in gross revenue at retail value and are deducted as promotional allowances to arrive at net operating revenue. The Company issues coupons and downloadable promotional credits to customers for the purpose of generating future revenue. The value of coupons and downloadable promotional credits redeemed is applied against the revenue generated on the day of the redemption. The estimated cost of provided promotional allowances is included in casino expenses. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the cost of providing promotional allowances were as follows: For the three months For the six months ended June 30, ended June 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Amounts in thousands Hotel $ $ $ $ Food and beverage $ $ $ $ Members of the Company’s casinos’ player clubs earn points based on, among other things, their volume of play at the Company’s casinos. Players can accumulate points over time that they may redeem at their discretion under the terms of the program. The Company records a liability based on the redemption value of the points earned, and records a corresponding reduction in casino revenue. Points can be redeemed for cash, downloadable promotional credits and/or various amenities at the casino, such as meals, hotel stays and gift shop items. The value of the points is offset against the revenue in the period in which the points were earned. The value of unused or unredeemed points is included in accrued liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The expiration of unused points results in a reduction of the liability. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 201 4 , the outstanding balance of this liability was $0.7 and $0.9 million, respectively.

Long-Term Debt [Abstract]
Long-Term Debt	7. LONG-TERM DEBT Long-term debt as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 consisted of the following: June 30, December 31, Amounts in thousands 2015 2014 Credit agreement - Bank of Montreal $ $ Credit agreement - Casinos Poland Credit facility - Casinos Poland Capital leases - Casinos Poland Financing obligation - CDR land lease Total long-term debt $ $ Less current portion Long-term portion $ $ The consolidated weighted average interest rate on all Company debt was 9.44% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 . In April 2015, the Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements to partially hedge the risk of future increases in the variable rate debt under the Company’s credit agreement with the Bank of Montreal (the “BMO Credit Agreement”). Each of the interest rate swap agreements is for CAD 11.0 million ( $8.8 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2015 ) at a Canadian Dollar Offered Rate (“CDOR”) of 3 . 9 2% and 3 . 8 9% , respectively. The interest rate swap agreements are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. As a result, changes in fair value of the interest rate swaps are recognized in interest expense on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of earnings (loss). The Company pays a floating interest rate on its remaining CAD 8.0 million ($6.5 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2015 ) in borrowings under the BMO Credit Agreement , and the current interest rate is approximately 4.00% . The Company pays a weighted average interest rate of 3.48 % on its borrowings under the CPL loan agreements. The weighted average interest rate on all Company debt is higher than the interest rate s of the BMO Credit Agreement and the weighted average interest of 3.48% on the CPL loan agreements due to the CDR financing obligation, on which the Company pays an implicit interest rate of 10.0% , and the fair value impact of the interest rate swap agreements on interest expense. See Note 11 for additional information on the interest rate s wap agreements . Credit Agreement – Bank of Montreal In May 2012, the Company, through its Canadian subsidiaries, entered into the CAD 28.0 million credit agreement with the Bank of Montreal. On August 15, 2014, the Company, through its Canadian subsidiaries, entered into an amended and restated BMO Credit Agreement that increased the Company’s borrowing capacity to CAD 39.1 million.

The outstanding borrowings cannot be re-borrowed once they are repaid. The Company has used borrowings under the BMO Credit Agreement primarily to repay the Company’s mortgage loan related to the Edmonton property, pay for the additional 33.3% investment in CPL and pay for development costs related to the REC project (Note 3). The Company can also use the proceeds to pursue the development or acquisition of new gaming opportunities and for general corporate purposes. Borrowings bear interest at fixed rates or at BMO’s floating rate plus a margin. Any funds not drawn down under the BMO Credit Agreement are subject to standby fees ranging from 0.50% to 0.75% payable quarterly in arrears. Standby fees of less than CAD 0.1 million (less than $0.1 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2015 ) were recorded as general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings (loss) for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014 . The BMO Credit Agreement has a term of five years through August 2019 and is guaranteed by the Company. The shares of the Company’s subsidiaries in Edmonton and Calgary and the Company's 75% interest in CDR are pledged as collateral for the BMO Credit Agreement. The BMO Credit Agreement contains a number of financial covenants applicable to the Canadian subsidiaries, including covenants restricting their incurrence of additional debt, a debt to EBITDA ratio, a fixed charge coverage ratio, a requirement to maintain a CAD 28.0 million equity balance and a capital expenditure limit of CAD 2.0 million per year.

Income Taxes	9 . INCOME TAXES The Company’s pre-tax income (loss), income tax expense (benefit) and effective tax rate by jurisdiction are summarized in the table below: For the six months For the six months Amounts in thousands ended June 30, 2015 ended June 30, 2014 Pre-tax income (loss) Income tax expense (benefit) Effective tax rate Pre-tax income (loss) Income tax expense (benefit) Effective tax rate Canada $ $ $ $ United States Mauritius* Austria Poland Total $ $ $ $ *Ship-based casinos I ncome tax expense is recorded relative to the jurisdictions that recognize book earnings . During the six months ended June 30, 2015 , the Company recognized income tax expense of less than $0. 1 million on pre-tax income of $ 9 . 1 million, representing an effective income tax benefit rate of 0. 3 % compared to an income tax expense of $0. 6 million on pre-tax income of $0. 2 million, representing an effective income tax rate of 407.5% for the same period in 2014. The estimated effective tax rate for 2015 is 16.98% before discrete items. This estimated effective tax rate is significantly impacted by the reduction of the Austrian valuation allowance discussed below. The decrease in the effective tax rate compared to the same period in 2014 is primarily the result of the reduction of the Austrian valuation allowance in the second quarter of 2015. The Company analyzed the likelihood of future realization of its deferred tax assets, including recent cumulative earnings by taxing jurisdiction, expectations of future taxable income or loss, the amount of net operating loss carryforwards not subject to limitations, the number of periods it will take to realize the net operating loss carryforwards and other relevant factors. Based on this analysis, the Company concluded that its Austrian operations had attained a sustained level of profitability sufficient to reduce its valuation allowance in that jurisdiction. Based on this conclusion, the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets in Austria was reduced to zero during the second quarter of 2015, resulting in a tax benefit of $1.5 million. Additionally, there is a lower effective tax rate for the Company’s Canadian operations due to exchange rate benefits and a valuation allowance maintained for Century Downs deferred tax assets. The effective tax rate in Canada also is impacted by the fair value measurement of the interest rate swap agreements for the Company’s Edmonton property. T he Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance on all of its U.S. deferred tax assets and on certain Canadian deferred tax assets.

Fair Value Measurements [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	11 . FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS REPORTING Fair Value Measurements The Company follows fair value measurement authoritative accounting guidance for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value. That authoritative accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Market or observable inputs are the preferred sources of values, followed by assumptions based on hypothetical transactions in the absence of market inputs. The fair value hierarchy for grouping these assets and liabilities is based on the significance level of the following inputs: · Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities · Level 2 – quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable · Level 3 – significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The Company reflects transfers between the three levels at the beginning of the reporting period in which the availability of observable inputs no longer justifies classification in the original level. Recurring Fair Value Measurements The estimated fair value and basis of valuation of our financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows: Amounts in thousands June 30, 2015 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Interest rate swaps (1) $ $ $ (a) See “Derivative Instruments” section below for detailed information regarding our interest rate swaps. There were no recurring fair value measurements as of December 31, 2014. Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements The Company applies the provision of the fair value measurement standard to its non-recurring, non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value. There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Long-Term Debt – The carrying value of the Company’s BMO Credit Agreement that bears interest at the lenders’ variable rate and the carrying value of the CPL debt approximate fair value as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Based on prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, recently negotiated terms of the debt and a large portion of the debt being current, the estimated fair values of the outstanding balances under the Company’s BMO Credit Agreement and CPL debt are designated as Level 2 measurements in the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of the CDR debt approximates fair value as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 because the debt bears interest at a rate implicit in the CDR land lease and, as a result, the estimated fair value of the Company’s CDR debt is designated as a Level 3 measurement in the fair value hierarchy. As of June 30, 2015, the carrying amount of CDR’s land lease was CAD 19.5 million ($15.6 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2015) with an effective interest rate of 11.4% . Due to the nature of the land lease financing obligation, there is no maturity date until CDR exercises its option to purchase the land. Under the land lease, CDR has four options to purchase the land. The first option is July 1, 2023. Other Estimated Fair Value Measurements – The estimated fair value of our other assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventory, accrued payroll and accounts payable have been determined to approximate carrying value based on the short-term nature of those financial instruments. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had no cash equivalents. Derivative Instruments Reporting As of April 2015, we began using interest rate swaps to mitigate the risk of variable interest rates under our BMO Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2015, we had two interest rate swap agreements outstanding each with a total notional amount of CAD 11.0 million ($8.8 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2015) at a fixed CDOR rate of 3.92% and 3.89% , respectively, that were not designated as accounting hedges. These interest rate swaps reset monthly and expire on August 15, 2019 . The difference to be paid or received under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements is accrued as interest rates change and recognized as an adjustment to interest expense for the related debt. Changes in the variable interest rates to be paid or received pursuant to the terms of the interest rate swap agreements will have a corresponding effect on future cash flows. Changes in fair value of the swap agreements are recognized in interest expense.

Segment Information [Abstract]
Segment Information	12. SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company reports its financial performance in three reportable segments based on the geographical locations in which its casinos operate: the United States, Canada and Poland. Operating segments are aggregated within reportable segments based on their similar characteristics, types of customers, types of services and products provided, the regulatory environments in which they operate, and their management and reporting structure. The Company’s casino properties provide gaming, hotel accommodations, dining facilities and other amenities to the Company’s customers. The Company’s operations related to concession, management and consulting fee revenues and certain other corporate and management operations have not been identified as separate reportable segments; therefore, these operations are included in Corporate and Other in the following segment disclosures to reconcile to consolidated results. All intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

[1]	CDR's land lease is a financing obligation of the Company. Prior to the Company's acquisition of its ownership interest in CDR, CDR sold a portion of the land on which the REC project has been constructed and then entered into an agreement to lease back a portion of the land sold. The Company accounts for the lease using the financing method, accounting for the land subject to the lease as an asset and the lease payments as interest on the financing obligation. Under the land lease, CDR has four options to purchase the land. The first option date is July 1, 2023. Due to the nature of the CDR land lease financing obligation, there are no principal payments due until the Company exercises its option to purchase the land. Lease payments are applied to interest only, and any change in the outstanding balance of the financing obligation relates to foreign currency translation.
