This Amendment No. 19 to Schedule 13D (the "Amendment") relates to Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock"), of Bally's Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer" or the "Company"). This Amendment is being filed to amend the Schedule 13D that was originally filed on March 29, 2019 and amended on June 26, 2019, July 15, 2019, August 2, 2019, November 19, 2019, February 13, 2020, February 20, 2020, August 7, 2020, September 17, 2020, November 20, 2020, December 15, 2020, March 30, 2021, April 6, 2021, April 16, 2021, April 22, 2022, August 11, 2021, October 8, 2021, December 9, 2021, and January 25, 2022 (as amended, the "Schedule 13D"). Unless otherwise indicated in this Amendment, all capitalized terms have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

This Amendment is being filed to amend and supplement Items 4 and 5 of the Schedule 13D as set forth below.

Item 4 is hereby amended by adding the following at the end thereof:
On May 5, 2022, the Issuer announced that a special committee of the Company’s Board of Directors had terminated consideration of Standard General’s previously disclosed proposal to acquire all of the outstanding shares of the Company that it did not already own. While disappointed with the outcome, Standard General respects the decision of the special committee.

Item 5 is hereby amended to replace (a) and (b) with the following: 
(a) and (b) See Items 7-13 of the cover pages hereto.
The percentages reported herein are based on a statement in the Issuer's  Proxy Statement for its 2022 Annual Meeting of  Stockholders of the  Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 4, 2022,  that there were 52,041,478 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock outstanding as of March 21, 2022.
