$50,000 Weekend Win for Mapau Bingo Member
April 27, 2006

(PRESS RELEASE) -- In what he called his "luckiest weekend ever", Mapau Bingo member David Priest hit it big playing keno and Vacation Station slots, winning more than $50,000 in total. David started his streak on Friday, winning more than $5,000 playing keno. "I was in heaven," David said.

On Saturday, David decided to "push his luck" a bit further and played some more keno. He quickly got up to $10,000! The David had to attend his son's Little League baseball game. His wife begged him to cash out as soon as he got home. David made a deal with her that he would not go below $9,000. It was a good deal.

When David got home, he logged into Mapau Bingo and noticed the game Vacation Station, a game he loves playing at Mapau Casino. David "decided to go big" and played the max bet of $5 a line, for $120 a spin. It was a good strategy.

Within a few minutes, David hit 7 suitcases for a "whopping" $24,000! He then got three airplanes for a jackpot of $20,000! A couple of wins later, David cashed out $50,000.

"I have been playing at both Mapau sites for a long time and they are by far my favorites," David said. "I want to thank everyone at Mapau Bingo for all the quick help and attention when needed."

"You guys are awesome."

World Poker Congress Planned for June
April 27, 2006

LAS VEGAS – (PRESS RELEASE) -- The poker boom of the past several years is often attributed to two elements: the televising of live poker events, such as the World Series of Poker and the World Poker Tour; and the growth of online poker rooms, where anyone can learn to play the game without the pressure of other players across the table. But what do these two issues have in common? New poker players!

Research has clearly shown that players who learn to play poker online usually wind up in a live poker room of some description, while online poker rooms are used to finding new players who were first attracted to the game via the televised tournaments. But how do you best increase your business by using this ongoing synergy?

The World Poker Congress, scheduled for June 27-28, 2006 at the City Conference Center in Stockholm, Sweden, is the first conference to integrate the online and live aspects of the poker industry. With two tracks, one devoted to the online issues and the other addressing concerns of the land- based, live game, the World Poker Congress will bring attendees from each side of the equation to discuss the synergies and possibilities of the entire spectrum of the poker world.

"Online poker operators are facing increasing competition at all levels," says Sue Schneider, president of one of the conference organizers, the River City Group, the leading information provider for online gaming. "The World Poker Congress will highlight the strategies, products and services that will help any online poker room stay at the top of their game."

The World Poker Congress is truly a "must-attend" conference that will help to shape the direction and future of the poker world. The World Poker Congress will help your company develop strategies that create a brand and an attraction to gain new players.

"To be successful in the poker world, you must understand the challenges and opportunities," says Paul Dworin, publisher of Global Gaming Business and PokerBIZ magazines, the only magazines dedicated to the business of the poker industry. "The World Poker Congress will give operators and vendors a window into poker's future."

The two announced keynote speakers will offer more than enough advice to justify attending. Jeffrey Pollack, the first commissioner of the World Series of Poker, and Steve Lipscomb, president of the World Poker Tour, will deliver a keynote speech at the event. A full slate of conference sessions will be held on those two days. Attendees will be able to meet with colleagues at two cocktail parties, continental breakfasts, and networking breaks.



Casino Resort Part of Mongolia Project
April 27, 2006

MONGOLIA – (PRESS RELEASE) -- In a historic first for international trade to Northeast Asia, Mongolian government and Winwheel Bullion officials today announced the creation of the Zamiin Uud Free Economic Zone, a new international free trade zone, strengthening the position of Mongolia and Northeast Asia in the global economy. This historic announcement was made at the Northeast Asia Conference by Minister of Industry and Trade B. Jargalsaikhan, Governor of the Central Bank of Mongolia O. Chuluunbat, and Minister of Finance N. Bayartsaikhan. The announcement marks an important milestone as Mongolia continues its transition to a free market economy. A b-roll for television news stations will be uplinked:

Located 350 miles northwest of Beijing, China on the southeast Mongolian border, the Zamiin Uud (pronounced ZA-meen OOD) Free Economic Zone is the result of an unprecedented partnership between the Mongolian government and the United States-based Winwheel Bullion corporation. The Mongolian government will provide 104,000 acres of land for a master-planned commercial center with development led by Winwheel Bullion. Phase I of Zamiin Uud will be a 2,224 acre development that will include construction of Odonchimed International Airport and a base infrastructure of hotels, casino resorts, a convention center, shopping complexes, duty free shops, office and commercial buildings, banks and financial institutions, industrial complexes, sports stadium, theme park, and golf courses. In addition, residential and community infrastructure will include housing, hospitals, public parks, a retirement community and other supplemental structures. Construction of the first phase of Zamiin Uud is scheduled to begin summer 2006.

A key component in the creation of this international free trade zone will be the construction of Odonchimed International Airport. Winwheel Bullion has entered into a joint venture with TEC Constructors & Engineers to construct the international airport. TEC Constructors & Engineers is an multinational company that specializes in large-scale real estate development, project management and general contracting. Past projects include Los Angeles International Airport, John Wayne International Airport, San Diego International Airport, the $1.5 billion Walt Disney California Adventure Resort, and recently, the Indianapolis Colts Football Stadium. For additional power in Zamiin Uud, Winwheel Bullion and Bronco Energy entered into a joint venture. Bronco's Preferred Service Provides in the power service of Zamiin Uud will be URS Corp. and Nexant Corp.

The Zamiin Uud Free Economic Zone is the latest step in Mongolia's ascension in the world economy. Since the early 1990s, Mongolia has purposefully taken steps to embrace a free market economy and has liberalized state-controlled prices and tariffs, privatized state-owned enterprises and established a two-tier banking system. In 2004, a joint statement between U.S. President Bush and Mongolian President Bagabandi declared a new era of cooperation and a comprehensive partnership between the two democratic countries based on shared values and common strategic interests. Mongolia joined the World Trade Organization in January 1997 and has enjoyed a decade of positive economic growth and single-digit inflation.

To ensure and assist in the transition process to a free market economy, a separate non-political body will be formed to administer economic policies in the Zamiin Uud Free Economic Zone. The Zamiin Uud Economic Development Authority (ZUEDA) will be mutually developed by the Mongolian Government and private commercial entities. Members will make up the ZUEDA Task Force who will initiate policies such as transparent and non-discriminatory administrative norms and legal standards in accordance with international principles. ZUEDA policy will be designed to create a stable and predictable climate for commerce, and accommodate international market forces that require high standards to protect foreign investment and investors with specific competition policies.

In English, Zamiin Uud means gateway, and true to its name, the Zamiin Uud Free Economic Zone functions as a gateway to Northeast Asia and establishes an international regional headquarters in a stable environment. Currently, there are already 70 commercial and service providers in Zamiin Uud, and approximately 70% of Mongolian foreign trade passes through the Zamiin Uud port. There is no excise, added value tax, or import custom duty levied on items imported to Zamiin Uud. Investment in the construction of storage facilities, cargo terminals and hotels in Zamiin Uud is exempt from income tax for an initial five-year term, then granted a 50% income tax concession for three subsequent years.

Technological infrastructure currently exists in the form of super high-speed fiber-optic cable and VSAT systems, cable TV, FM radio stations, mobile telecommunications, and internet and email access. An international road network connecting Asia and Europe intersects Zamiin Uud, with a new AH-3 standard highway set to be completed by 2008. Combined with the new development, Zamiin Uud is poised to be a hub of international commerce.

This day was chosen to announce this exciting free trade venture because it commemorates the 1206 coronation of Chinggis (Genghis) Khaan as the King of Kings, when the Mongolian Empire was at its apex. Chinggis Khaan was a 13th century Mongol military and political genius who ruled the world's largest empire that once stretched from Korea to Hungary. While infamous for his exploits on the battlefield, Chinggis Khaan was also a skilled leader, politician and administrator who created groundbreaking trade policies that nurtured free pan-Asian commerce.

Today, Mongolia maintains strong relations with all North and South East Asian countries. It has reasonable proximity to such major centers as Beijing, Nanjing, Shanghai, Seoul, Tokyo and Osaka. Since the early 1990s, Mongolia has purposefully taken steps to embrace a free market economy and has liberalized state-controlled prices and tariffs, privatized state-owned enterprises and established a two-tier banking system.



Kenilworth Receives PAGCOR Letter of Intent
April 27, 2006

MINEOLA, New York – (PRESS RELEASE) -- Kenilworth Systems Corporation ("Kenilworth") today reported the Company has received a "Letter of Intent" from the Philippines Amusement and Gaming Corporation ("PAGCOR"), the Republic of the Philippines chartered government gaming monopoly. PAGCOR partially owns and exclusively operates all fourteen (14) Filipino casinos, some of which are located in exclusive resort facilities frequented by Asian patrons. The letter underscores PAGCOR's intention to implement the Roulabette(R) Project while the more formal Memorandum of Agreement ("MOA") will be processed by the Philippines Legislature.

Herbert Lindo, Chairman and CEO stated, "We requested the letter to demonstrate PAGCOR's desire to implement Project Roulabette(R) while the approval of the MOA takes its normal time course. With the letter, the Company now can go forward with negotiations with satellite and cable companies that may wish to offer the patented Roulabette(R) System to their subscribers and obtain permission for the broadcasts in their respective jurisdictions. He further stated, "We now may also commence negotiations with design and manufacturing organizations for the equipment required to make Roulabette(R) available throughout the industrialized world."

In the mutually signed Letter of Intent, the Company guarantees to pay PAGCOR a monthly payment, for hosting the broadcasts, when they commence, over a ten (10) year contract period in the amount of US$1 million for year one (1); US$2 million for years two (2) and three (3); US$5 million for years four (4) through seven (7) and US$10 million for every year there after. The initial broadcast will emanate from the new Hyatt Hotel and Casino in Manila and may include Philippine Resorts that have casinos, with an expected starting date early in 2007. The Company also guaranteed to have available US$25 million required in its Business Plan which is incorporated in the MOA.

Mr. Lindo reiterated that "Kenilworth believes Roulabette(R) will become a US$500 billion net win market from wagering in five (5) years, by 2011, which will be shared by all participating entities." The letter is signed by Rene C. Figueora, Vice President - Administration and Senior Managing Head RDD, PAGCOR.



VIPsports.com Team at Lucas Racing Series
April 27, 2006

CURACAO – (PRESS RELEASE) -- The April 21 - 23 Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series event at Indianapolis Raceway Park was an unforeseen bonus for the VIPsports.com team. Postponed from an earlier date that conflicted with a national event, the race provided an opportunity to try out some new parts, rack up some championship points and give Superman a tryout for the team.

Even while trying new combinations of parts and set-ups, Danny Townsend managed to qualify the VIPsports.com Dodge Stratus Top Alcohol Funny Car in the number one spot before ending up as number two, by an ever-so-slight margin. After huddling with Townsend, Frank Parker and his co-chief/father, Dan Parker, decided that the less-than-ideal track conditions required the original race parts and settings. With that, Superman, a.k.a. Jack, Frank's four year old son, raced over to the track, red cape streaming behind him, and used his "heat vision" to clean the track. The set-up change and "super" track cleaning allowed Townsend to better utilize his power and make it to the semi-final round. But there just wasn't enough allowance for lane choice and the team had to face Chuck Cheesman's Camaro in the lane that had been causing grief all weekend.

When the tree went green, Townsend put a .028 hole shot on the Camaro, but still couldn't get the Mopar Hemi's power harnessed. While Townsend's mount danced and moved him around on the track, Cheeseman used a smooth run to make up the starting line difference and clip the Dodge Stratus' 5.784 E.T. by .059. The top speeds were identical, at 252.43 mph. Cheeseman wisely chose the same lane for the final and handily defeated Mick Snyder, who experienced track problems even worse than those of the VIPsports.com car.

Parker wasn't at all dismayed by the race results. "With the data collected this weekend, we now have "good track – bad track" comparisons and enough information to deal with either." He and Townsend agreed that their next race, the May 4 – 7 Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Southern Nationals, in Atlanta, Georgia, is going to be a good one.
