Moody's Investors Service said it raised Pinnacle Entertainment Inc.'s corporate family and probability of default ratings to B1 from B2.

In addition, Moody's affirmed Pinnacle's B1 senior unsecured note rating and raised the company's existing subordinated note rating to B3 from Caa1.

Moody's also assigned a B3 to Pinnacle's proposed $250 million senior subordinated notes due 2012 and a Ba1 to the company's existing $410 million senior secured revolver due 2016 and proposed $250 million term loan due 2019.
