13 September 2006

HATBORO, Pennsylvania – (PRESS RELEASE) -- The International Gaming
Conference & Expo (IGCE), slated for November 5-7 at the Fitzpatrick Castle
Hotel in Dublin, Ireland, will feature an unprecedented lineup of legal
experts discussing the current state of the interactive gaming industry
both in the U.S. and internationally. A standing room only audience is
expected in the wake of recent arrests by U.S. authorities of high-ranking
gaming executives.

"The recent arrests of Sportingbet Chairman Peter Dicks and Betonsports
CEO David Carruthers have thrown the interactive gaming industry into a
state of panic," said Christopher Dauer, Director of Conferences for The
Sports Network, developer of the IGCE. "This conference will feature the
top legal minds in the industry in one venue to discuss what has taken
place and what they anticipate will occur next to both the detriment and
continuance of the industry and those involved with it from public
companies to the ones that serve them in the areas of technology,
marketing, financing, payment solutions and more. Some of the answers will
surprise those in attendance."

Legal experts scheduled to speak include Tony Coles, partner with
Jeffrey Green Russell; Peter Wilson, partner with Tarlo Lyons; Joseph
Kelly, Esq., Professor of Business Law at SUNY College at Buffalo; Mark
Mendel, partner at Mendel Blumenfeld; Stephen Philippsohn, partner with
Philippsohn Crawfords Berwald, and others from New York to Malta.

Additionally, the IGCE will offer substantive discussions on virtually
every aspect of the interactive gaming world, including, but not limited
to:
