                               (Unaudited)


1.  ORGANIZATION

The Company, with offices in Las Vegas, Nevada and Atlantic City, 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. ("CJPG").

On January 3, 2003, the Board of Directors of CJPG approved the spin-
off of one of its subsidiaries, Gaming Venture Corp., USA, as a
separate company. The Company's shareholders will receive one share of
Gaming for each share of CJPG owned as of the record date.

The spin-off was completed and effective on April 1, 2003. The
shareholders of CJPG received one share of Gaming for each share of
CJPG owned on April 30, 2003.

On January 10, 2001, the Company sold its trade show and trade
publication assets for approximately $2,700,000 of cash, net of
expenses, and a 10% ownership interest in the purchaser, then 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 impairment losses on
the investment of $900,000 were required for each of the years ended
December 31, 2002 and 2001, which was 100% of the original cost.

On July 1, 2000, the Company acquired a 60% interest in Poker Digest,
LLC.  The remaining 40% interest was acquired in 2001 and 2002 for a
total cost of $690,000.  Poker Digest, LLC publishes the Poker Digest
Magazine and sponsors gambling cruises.

On June 25, 2002, the Company sold the magazine assets of Poker Digest,
LLC for $800,000.  The gain on the sale was approximately $303,000.
The Company will continue to own and operate the gambling cruise
sponsor business.

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 included in the Form
10KSB for the year ended December 31, 2002.

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 and stock options outstanding during the period.  Stock
and options have been excluded from the diluted loss per share and have
not been presented because their effect would have been antidilutive.
The stock options expired on April 1, 2003 and had no material effect
on earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2003.

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
shareholders' 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.

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
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.  The Company assesses the
impairment of goodwill on an annual basis or whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the fair value of the reporting unit to
which goodwill relates is less than the carrying value.  The Company is
required to make periodic tests to determine whether there has been any
impairment in the value of recorded goodwill.  At December 31, 2002,
the Company evaluated the carrying value of goodwill in connection with
two reporting units, Poker Digest, LLC and Gaming Venture Corp., U.S.A.
The Company recorded an impairment charge for goodwill in connection
with Poker Digest, LLC of $89,000 in December 2002 to write down the
carrying value of goodwill to an amount representing the discounted
future cash flows in accordance with FASB 142. In 2003, as a result of
the spin-off of Gaming Venture Corp., USA the Company determined that
the goodwill of $1,371,699 was impaired and wrote-off the entire
amount.

6.  DISPOSAL OF BUSINESS COMPONENTS

The Company applies the provisions of SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," which prescribes
accounting and reporting standards for disposal of a business
component.  Accordingly, the Company's business unit (Poker Digest
Magazine) that has been disposed of is presented as a discontinued
operation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002.

In 2003, the Company completed the spin-off of one of its subsidiaries,
Gaming Venture Corp., USA. The shareholders of CJPG received one share
of Gaming for each share of CJPG owned as of the record date. The
Company recorded a loss of $32,796 from discontinued operations. The
statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30,
2002 has been restated for comparative purposes.

7.  NOTE PAYABLE

The note payable in the original amount of $250,000 was increased in
the second quarter of 2003, to $478,000. The note is a demand note and
requires monthly payments of interest only at Wachovia National Bank's
prime rate.  The note is collateralized by the Company's money market
funds.  Interest expense on the note was $17,414 and $14,990 for the
six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

8.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Loans receivable, shareholders and related parties include loans to the
majority shareholder of $372,624, a loan of $10,120 to a family member
of a shareholder, and loans of $85,736 to another shareholder.
Repayments began at the end of the first quarter of 2000 and are
required every quarter thereafter and are made with common stock of the
Company with a market value of at least 10% of the outstanding loan
balance.  During the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company
reacquired 40,000 shares of restricted common stock from two
shareholders, valued at $17,800, for partial repayment of shareholder
loans receivable.

The Company rents an office facilities from a shareholder.  The
facility is occupied pursuant to a ten-year lease which began on June
1, 1997 and requires annual rent payments of $120,000.  Total related
party rent expense was $60,000 for each of the six month periods ended
June 30, 2003 and 2002.

On January 9, 2003, the Company entered into a stock swapping
transaction with a minority shareholder. The Company gave up 127,000
shares of its marketable securities of VendingData Corp., in exchange
for 127,000 shares of CJPG's common stock. The value of the marketable
securities given up by the Company was recorded as treasury shares. No
gain or loss was recorded as a result of this transaction.

The Company sold 143,000 shares of its marketable securities of
VendingData Corp. to a minority shareholder pursuant to an agreement
dated January 9, 2003. A gain of approximately $50,000 was recognized
and recorded as other income for the six months ended June 30, 2003.


9.  INCOME TAXES

In 2001, the Company recorded a deferred tax liability of $351,000, as
a result of the gain on the sale of its trade show and publication
assets, which occurred in January 2001.  This liability was based on
the 10% investment recorded upon the sale of the trade show and
publication assets.  The investment has been determined to be impaired
at 100% of the original cost.  As a result, during March 2003, the
Company reversed the deferred tax liability.   The Company also
recorded a deferred tax asset of $98,000, as a result of a net
operating loss carryforward of approximately $250,000. A valuation
allowance has been provided for the entire deferred tax assets related
to the unrealized loss on equity investments.

11.  NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued FASB Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest
Entities" ("FIN 46").  FIN 46 is applicable immediately for variable
interest entities created after January 31, 2003.  For variable
interest entities created before February 1, 2003, the provisions of
FIN 46 are applicable no later than July 1, 2003.  The Company has no
transactions with any variable interest entities during the six month
periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain
Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and
Equity". SFAS No. 150 changes the accounting for certain financial
instruments that, under previous guidance, could be classified as
equity or "mezzanine" equity, by now requiring those instruments to be
classified as liabilities (or assets in some circumstances) in the
Consolidated Balance Sheet.  Further, SFAS No. 150 requires disclosure
regarding the terms of those instruments and settlement alternatives.
The guidance in SFAS No. 150 generally is effective for all financial
instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and is
otherwise effective at the beginning of the first interim period
beginning after June 15, 2003.  The Company has evaluated SFAS No. 150
and determined that it does not have an impact on the Company's
financial reporting and disclosures.

Item  2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations:

Trends and Uncertainties.     Inasmuch as a major portion of the
Company's activities is the publishing of magazines and newsletters
primarily for the U.S. gaming industry and its consumers, the
organization and sponsorship of poker cruises for the gaming industry
as well as consumer gaming festivals for specific resorts or casinos,
the publishing of a mail order-catalog selling various gaming-related
products, and providing consulting services, the Company's business
operations may be adversely affected by competitors, prolonged
recessionary periods and disruptions in air travel.

Capital and Source of Liquidity.

In 2000, the Company issued 301,500 shares of restricted common stock
with a fair value of $480,516 in connection with the acquisition of 60%
ownership of Poker Digest, LLC. The remaining 40% was acquired for
$210,000 in 2001 and 2002. In June 2002, the Company sold the magazine
assets of Poker Digest for $800,000 and recognized a gain on the sale
of approximately $303,000.

During the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company received $3,507
of loan receivables from shareholders and related parties and sold
marketable securities of $50,000. As a result, the Company had cash
flow from investing activities of $53,507 for the six months ended June
30, 2003.

On January 3, 2003, the board of directors approved the spin-off of the
Gaming Venture Corp., U.S.A. subsidiary as a separate company to its
shareholders.  The spin-off was completed and effective on April 1,
2003. The shareholders of CJPG received one share of Gaming for each
share of CJPG owned on April 30, 2003.   Gaming Venture Corp., U.S.A.
is the remaining B2B oriented division of CJPG.  The decision to spin
off GVC is primarily due to CJPG's change to a consumer oriented
publishing company.  The GVC unit consists of the remaining newsletter
operations of the company, all B2B publications, and the consulting
business, also B2B.  The board of directors determined that these
operations had become non-core for the company and that GVC's growth
has been constrained due to that.

For the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Company sold the Poker
Digest magazine division for $800,000 and had a decrease in loan
receivables from shareholders and related parties of $4,806.  The
Company purchased $10,001 worth of equipment and marketable securities
of $129,338, and sold marketable securities of $118,374.   The Company
purchased an additional 20% of Poker Digest, LLC for $140,000 in cash.
As a result, the Company had cash flow used in investing activities of
$643,841 for the six months ended June 30, 2002.

For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company had an increase in
notes payable of $228,000. The Company issued common stock for $20,000
in cash. As a result, the Company had net cash flows provided by
financing activities of $248,000 for the six months ended June 30,
2003.

<PAGE>12

For the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Company made distributions
of $4,510 to minority interest.   The Company had a decrease in notes
payable of $250,000.   As a result, the Company had net cash flows used
in financing activities of $254,510 for the six months ended June 30,
2002.

Results of Operations.   The Company had a net loss of $1,335,398 for
the six months ended June 30, 2003.   The Company earned revenues of

June 30, 2003.

The Company had an increase in accounts receivable of $36,269.
Inventories decreased $21,492 for the six months ended June 30, 2003
and prepaid expenses decreased by $40,720.  Deferred subscription

used in operations for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was

2002. The Company earned revenues of $4,466,822, of which $672,271 was

<PAGE>13

operations and increasing its customer base and operating revenues.
The Company is focusing on decreasing administrative costs.   However,
increased marketing expenses will probably occur in future periods as
the Company attempts to further increase its marketing and sales
efforts.

Controls and Procedures.   The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief
Financial Officer of the Company have made an evaluation of the
disclosure controls and procedures relating to the quarterly report on
Form 10QSB for the period ended June 30, 2003 as filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and have judged such controls and
procedures to be effective as of June 30, 2003 (the evaluation date).

the Company or other factors that could significantly affect internal
controls relating to the Company since the evaluation date.

Current Accounting Issues.   The Company applies the provisions of SFAS
No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets," which prescribes accounting and reporting standards for
disposal of a business component.  Accordingly, the Company presented
the sale of Poker Digest Magazine and the spin-off of Gaming Venture
Corp., USA as discontinued operations.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued FASB Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest
Entities" ("FIN 46").  FIN 46 is applicable immediately for variable
interest entities created after January 31, 2003.  For variable
interest entities created before February 1, 2003, the provisions of
FIN 46 are applicable no later than July 1, 2003.  The Company has no
transactions with any variable interest entities during the six month
periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain
Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and
Equity". SFAS No. 150 changes the accounting for certain financial
instruments that, under previous guidance, could be classified as
equity or "mezzanine" equity, by now requiring those instruments to be



<PAGE>14

classified as liabilities (or assets in some circumstances) in the
Consolidated Balance Sheet.  Further, SFAS No. 150 requires disclosure
regarding the terms of those instruments and settlement alternatives.
The guidance in SFAS No. 150 generally is effective for all financial
instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and is
otherwise effective at the beginning of the first interim period
beginning after June 15, 2003.  The Company has evaluated SFAS No. 150
and determined that it does not have an impact on the Company's
financial reporting and disclosures.

Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires
management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and
assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates. The following is a summary of certain accounting
estimates considered critical by the Company.

Impairment of long-lived assets. The Company is required to assess
potential impairments to its long-lived assets, which is primarily
property and equipment. If impairment indicators are present, the
Company must measure the fair value of the assets in accordance with
SFAS 144 to determine if adjustments are to be recorded.

Goodwill and intangible asset impairment. In assessing the
recoverability of the Company's goodwill and other intangible assets,
management must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows
and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets.
For the six months ended June 30, 2003, as a result of the spin-off of
Gaming Venture Corp., USA, the Company determined that the goodwill of
$1,371,699 was impaired and wrote off the entire amount.
