1 - ORGANIZATION

The Company, with offices in Las Vegas, Nevada,
Atlantic City, New Jersey and Paramus, New Jersey,
publishes consumer gaming magazines and gaming
industry trade publications.

On April 3, 1998, the Company and its combined
affiliates merged with Gaming Venture Corp.,
U.S.A., a Nevada corporation ("Gaming").  The
Company and its combined affiliates became wholly
owned subsidiaries of Gaming, the legal acquiror.
As the shareholders of the Company and its combined
affiliates acquired approximately 65% of Gaming's
outstanding voting shares, the merger was accounted
for as a reverse acquisition of Gaming by the
Company, the accounting acquiror in the
transaction.  Simultaneous with the acquisition,
Gaming changed its name to Casino Journal
Publishing Group, Inc.

On January 10, 2001, the Company sold its trade
show and trade publication assets for approximately
$2,700,000 of cash, net expenses, and a 10%
ownership interest in the purchaser, GEM
Communications, LLC, valued at $1,800,000.  The
gain on the sale was approximately $4,000,000.
This 10% investment is accounted for using the cost
method of accounting.  The management of the
Company has determined that an impairment loss on
the investment of $900,000 was required at December
31, 2001, which was 50% of the original cost.

On July 1, 2000, the Company acquired a 60%
interest in Poker Digest, LLC.

On October 1, 2001, the Company agreed to purchase
an additional 20% of Poker Digest, LLC.  The
purchase price is $200,000, with $50,000 paid on
October 1, 2001, $50,000 paid on January 15, 2002,
and the remaining $100,000 being paid in equal
installments of $10,000 commencing February 15,
2002.  This transaction was completed on January
18, 2002.  The remaining 20% interest is held by
the founders of Poker Digest, LLC, who continue to
operate the company.

2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and applicable rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  They do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.  In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting primarily
of normal recurring adjustments) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been
included.  The results of operations for the
periods presented are not necessarily indicative
of the results to be expected for the full year.
The accompanying financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the Company's audited
financial statements and Form 10KSB for the year
ended December 31, 2001.

The condensed consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and all of its
wholly owned and majority owned subsidiaries.  All
significant intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated.

3 - PER SHARE DATA

Basic income (loss) per share is computed by
dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock
outstanding during the periods.  Diluted income per
share is computed by dividing the net income by the
weighted average number of shares of common stock,
stock warrants and options outstanding during the
period.  Stock warrants and options have been
excluded from the diluted loss per share and have
not been presented because their effect would have
been antidilutive.  The effect of stock options and
warrants on 2001 earnings per share is not
material.

4 - INVESTMENT IN AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE SECURITIES

Investments, consisting of equity securities, are
classified as available-for-sale securities and are
carried at fair value.  Unrealized gains and losses
are reported as a separate component of
stockholders' equity, net of applicable income
taxes.  Realized gains and losses and declines in
value deemed to be other than temporary on
available-for-sale securities are included in other
income (expense).  For the three months ended March
31, 2001, the Company recorded a loss on equity
investments of $1,082,500 as a result of declines
in value deemed to be other than temporary.  The
loss is included in other expense.

5 - GOODWILL

Goodwill represents cost in excess of fair value of
net assets acquired in merger transactions and was
being amortized over 10 to 15 years.  In
management's opinion, there has been no impairment
of goodwill at March 31, 2002.  In accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets",
amortization of goodwill is no longer permitted,
effective January 1, 2002.  In conjunction with the

probably occur in future periods as the Company
attempts to further increase its marketing and
sales efforts.
