(Unaudited)




1 - ACQUISITION

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 Company's and its combined affiliates' shareholders 
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.

The total cost of the acquisition was $3,346,235, consisting of the purchase 
price of $3,217,468, measured by the 1,608,734 common shares retained by 
Gaming's shareholders at their fair value at the closing date of $2.00 per 
share, plus transaction costs of $128,767.

Simultaneous with the acquisition, Gaming changed its name to Casino Journal 
Publishing Group, Inc.

(consisting 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 for the year 
ended December 31, 1997.


3 - GOODWILL

Goodwill represents cost in excess of fair value of net assets acquired in 
the merger transaction, and is being amortized over 15 years.


4 - DIRECT-RESPONSE ADVERTISING

The Company has capitalized the cost of a direct-response advertising 
campaign for magazine subscriptions.  The capitalized costs are amortized 
over the period in which revenues from the campaign are earned.  At September 
30, 1998, $390,000 of direct-response advertising costs was included in 
prepaid expenses.


5 - NOTE PAYABLE

The note payable of $100,000 is a demand note and requires monthly payments 
of interest only, commencing May 1, 1998, at First Union National Bank's 
prime rate plus 1%.  Marketable securities owned by a shareholder are 
collateral for the note.


6 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company rents two office facilities from shareholders.  One facility is 
occupied pursuant to a ten-year lease which began on September 1, 1997 and 
requires annual rent payments of $120,000, and the other facility is occupied

7 - SALE OF COMMON STOCK

On August 9, 1998, the Company issued 200,000 shares of its common stock to 
an unaffiliated party at $2.00 a share, pursuant to a private placement.


8 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial 
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income".  
Comprehensive income is defined to include not only net income or loss, but 
also the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from 
transactions and other events and circumstances from nonowner sources.  Total 
comprehensive loss for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 
1998, which includes the unrealized loss on investments for the periods, was 
$(186,587) and $(218,772), respectively.  There were no items of other 
comprehensive income for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 
1997, and the Company's total comprehensive income or loss is equal to its 
net income or loss for those periods.  Adoption of SFAS No. 130 has no impact 
on net income or loss or shareholders' equity.

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 major trade shows and conventions 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,  the  
development  and  operation of a daily 900 number hotline information  
service and providing consulting services, the Company's business operations 
may  be  adversely affected by competitors and prolonged recessionary 
periods.

In  addition,  the  future  exercise  of  any  of  the outstanding Warrants 
is uncertain.    The lack of  future exercise of the Class A or Class B 
Warrants could negatively impact the  Company's  ability  to  successfully  
expand  operations.

Capital  and  Source  of  Liquidity.   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 Company's 
and its combined affiliates' shareholders 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.

The total cost of the acquisition was $3,346,235, consisting of the purchase 
price of $3,217,468, measure by the 1,608,734 common shares retained by the

of $18,000.   Total related party rent expense was $69,903 and $4 for the
