NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
|
JUNE 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS
The Company was incorporated on September 13, 1993 in the State of Delaware as Power Direct, Inc. On January 31, 2000 the Company changed its name to 2U Online.com Inc. to reflect management’s decision to shift the Company’s focus from oil and gas exploration and development to internet-based business development. On October 8, 2003, the Company changed its name to Golden Spirit Minerals Ltd. to reflect management’s decision to shift the Company’s focus from internet-based business development to mineral exploration. On October 19, 2004, the Company changed its name to Golden Spirit Mining Ltd. On July 18, 2005, the Company changed its name to Golden Spirit Gaming Ltd. to reflect management’s decision to develop an online gaming business. The launch of the updated goldenspiritpoker.com website featuring real cash games, in addition to play money games, occurred in January 2006. By agreement dated July 18, 2005 as amended September 20, 2005 (the “Amended Agreement”), the Company agreed to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares of 4 Of A Kind Enterprises (“4KE”) doing business as EverythingAboutPoker.com for consideration of 1,388,889 post reverse-split restricted shares of the Company’s common stock which were placed in trust pending finalization of the agreement. During the current period, the Company completed its due diligence and formally notified the vendor of the Company’s intent not to complete this proposed acquisition (refer to Note 4). Effective June 30, 2006, the Company completed a 1 for 18 reverse stock split (refer Note 6) and changed its name to Golden Spirit Enterprises Ltd. to reflect the Company’s plan to expand its operations to include the marketing of other products and venues not related to gaming.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses since inception of $14,353,989 and at June 30, 2006 and had a working capital deficiency of $256,761. The Company and its subsidiaries are in the development stage and further significant losses are expected to be incurred in developing its business. The recoverability of the carrying value of assets and the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising additional capital and ultimately on generating future profitable operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise the necessary funds when needed to finance its ongoing costs. Given the Company’s limited operating history, lack of sales, and its operating losses, there can be no assurance that it will be able to achieve or maintain profitability. The Company intends to fund the marketing of its business with both equity financing and joint venture opportunities, although there are no assurances these opportunities will be successful. Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt regarding the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, a 100% interest in PD Oil & Gas, Inc. (inactive), a 100% interest in Cardstakes.com Enterprises Ltd. (inactive), and a 100% interest in Golden Spirit Poker Company Ltd.
The foregoing unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Regulation S-B as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2005 referenced in the 10-KSB. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements furnished herein include all adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period presented.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of the Company's financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions that could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the Company's financial position and results of operations.
Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2006.
NOTE 3 – RESOURCE PROPERTIES
Niger Property
On April 4, 2005, the Company signed a memorandum of understanding with a private corporation to acquire a Uranium Concession on the African Continent.

The Company also agreed to issue 1,666,667 post reverse-split non-refundable restricted Rule 144 common shares upon signing the memorandum, and issue a further 3,888,889 post reverse-split restricted Rule 144 common shares and pay an additional Cdn $5,000 once the Ministry of Mines issues the Prospecting Permit. As at June 30, 2006, the prospecting permit has not been issued. To June 30, 2006, the Company has issued 1,666,667 of the non-refundable post reverse-split shares with a fair value of $600,000
NOTE 4 – ONLINE GAMING BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
Arc2 Entertainment
On July 12, 2005, the Company entered into a Software Sub License Agreement (“SSL Agreement”) with Arc2 Entertainment (“Arc2”), a British Virgin Islands Corporation whereby Arc2 agreed to build, operate and manage the Company’s online gaming website, GoldenSpiritPoker.com. Arc2 is an online gaming software development and marketing company that has licensed the Company the rights to route users to such software utilized for the operation of online gaming.
The total consideration to be paid to Arc2 by the Company was as follows:
(a)
Initial fee: The Company agreed to pay Arc2 , under the original SSL Agreement, a one-time, non-refundable license acquisition website and development fee in the amount of $100,000, $80,000 due upon execution (paid) and $20,000 would be due upon launch of the live website where players are able to play on the site for real money. The Company negotiated with Arc2 to accept the $80,000 as payment in full; therefore, the Company is not obligated to make the $20,000 final payment (see below).
(b)
Monthly license fee: The Company agreed to pay Arc2 an ongoing monthly fee based on a monthly amount equivalent to 28% of the net monthly revenue generated by the website.
(c)
Payment for consulting fees: Upon the signing of this agreement, the Company issued 5,555,556 post reverse-split Rule 144 restricted shares of its common stock with a fair value of $2,000,000 to Arc2 and its designees. This amount has been recorded as deferred compensation as a separate component of stockholders’ deficit and is amortized using the straight-line method as consulting expenses over the three-year term of the SSL Agreement. During the period ended June 30, 2006, the Company recorded consulting fees of $333,334 and as at June 30, 2006, $1,333,334 remains deferred.
(d)
Payment for development costs: The Company would be responsible for all of the remaining costs in connection with the development of the online gaming website.
The website, where people are able to play with and for “play money” or “play for free”, was launched in September 2005. This first “play for free” phase is intended to draw players while the live version, where players are able to play on the site for cash, is being developed. The live version was launched in January 2006. The Company will receive revenues for hosting games between players by collecting a percentage (rake) from each real money pot.
On January 12, 2006, the Company entered into an amended Licensing Agreement with Arc2 titled Internet Poker Room, Casino and Sportsbook Software Licensing Agreement (“Amended SSL Agreement”). The Amended SSL Agreement will provide the Company access to a broader base network of players online for poker games in addition to new software for casino table games such as Blackjack, Roulette, Baccarat, Craps, Slot Machines and Video Poker. The Casino software is available in several different languages such as French, Italian, Japanese, Korean, German, Chinese, Turkish and Spanish. Although the Sportsbook software is included, it will not be utilized at this time. The original term of the Amended SSL Agreement is for 36 months followed by automatic 2 year renewals which may be terminated by either party. The Company will amortize the initial software license acquisition fee over the 36 month initial term. As of June 30, 2006, the Co mpany had amortized $13,890 of the license acquisition fee.

NOTE 4 – ONLINE GAMING BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT (continued)
Under the Amended SSL Agreement, consideration paid to Arc2 by the Company was modified as follows:
a)
Initial fee: The Company shall pay Arc2 a one-time, non-refundable software license acquisition fee in the amount of $100,000 in addition to the $80,000 previously paid in connection with the original software.

This fee was waived for the first 3 months after launch.

NOTE 9 – CONTINGENCIES
F-9
On May 2, 2003, the Company issued 25,000 post reverse-split common shares valued at $9,000 to a consultant pursuant to a stock option incentive plan. The consultant failed to meet the terms of the stock option agreement by not paying the exercise price and as a result, the Company requested the return of the 25,000 post reverse-split shares. The consultant refused to return the shares; therefore, the Company issued a stop transfer and commenced legal proceedings to recover the shares. The consultant subsequently filed a Statement of Claim against the Company for damages of $53,000 Cdn. On April 29, 2005, the Supreme Court of British Columbia issued a judgment awarding the plaintiff $15,000 Cdn in damages and $7,180 Cdn in costs; however, the 25,000 post reverse-split shares were to be returned to the Company (not yet received).In September 2005, the Company and the plaintiff agreed to payment terms to settle this damage award by a payment of $6,080 Cdn (paid) and a payment schedule of $1,000 Cdn per month for the remaining balance of the judgment commencing December 1, 2005. The $6,080 Cdn payment was made as the result of a bailiff’s executed court order on September 28, 2005, which seized the Company’s bank account. No further payments have been made towards the settlement agreement due to the Plaintiff’s refusal to sign the order.
On September 28,2005, the Company received notice of a lawsuit from Thomas L. Franklin, a professional poker player formerly under contract with 4KE, for an alleged breach of contract for services rendered based on the original contract between the Company and 4KE dated July 18, 2005. The Company, 4KE, and certain individuals, are being sued for $967,500, plus interest at the rate of 8% per annum from August 22, 2005, and all costs pertaining to this legal matter. An attorney in Mississippi has been retained to defend this action and to apply for a dismissal of the case, based on Mississippi being the wrong jurisdiction for this suit and to defend the Company from the claims made by the plaintiff. The outcome of this litigation and an estimate of loss are presently not determinable and no provision for loss relating to this lawsuit has been recorded.
NOTE 10 – STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment”, which replaced SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” and superseded APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”. In January 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 107, “Share-Based Payment”, which provides supplemental implementation guidance for SFAS No. 123R. SFAS No. 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on the grant date fair value of the award. SFAS No. 123R was to be effective for interim or annual reporting periods beginning on or after June 15, 2005, but in April 2005 the SEC issued a rule that will permit most registrants to implement SFAS No. 123R at the beginning of their next fiscal year, instead of the next rep orting period as required by SFAS No. 123R. The pro-forma disclosures previously permitted under SFAS No. 123 no longer will be an alternative to financial statement recognition. Under SFAS No. 123R, the Company must determine the appropriate fair value model to be used for valuing share-based payments, the amortization method for compensation cost and the transition method to be used at date of adoption. The transition methods include prospective and retroactive adoption options. Under the retroactive options, prior periods may be restated either as of the beginning of the year of adoption or for all periods presented. The prospective method requires that compensation expense be recorded for all unvested stock options and restricted stock at the beginning of the first quarter of adoption of SFAS No. 123R, while the retroactive methods would record compensation expense for all unvested stock options and restricted stock beginning with the first period restated. The Company adopted the modified prospective method of this statement for the fiscal year beginning on January 1, 2006. The Company did not record any compensation expense in the first quarter of 2006 because there were no unvested stock options existing prior to the adoption. Stock-based compensation expenses for awards granted prior to January 1, 2006 were based on the grant date fair-value as determined under the pro-forma provisions of SFAS No. 123.

Our Background. Golden Spirit Enterprises Ltd., formerly Golden Spirit Gaming Ltd., formerly Golden Spirit Mining Ltd., formerly Golden Spirit Minerals Ltd., formerly 2UOnline.com, Inc., formerly Power Direct, Inc., was incorporated in the State of Delaware on September 13, 1993. Our Company maintains principal executive offices at 1288 Alberni Street, Suite 806, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6E 4N5. Our offices in the United States are located at 177 Telegraph Road, Suite 541, Bellingham, Washington 98226.
Power Direct, Inc. changed its name to 2UOnline.com, Inc. by filing a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation on January 31, 2000. The trading symbol changed from "PWDR" to "TWOU" in order to reflect the decision to shift the focus from oil and gas production to Internet-related activities. The Company’s symbol was then changed to "TWOUE". On or about April 18, 2000, we were removed from the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board ("OTCBB") for failure to comply with NASD Rule 6530, which requires any company listed on the OTCBB to be current in its public reporting obligations pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. Our Company was re-instated on the OTCBB on October 7, 2002 under the symbol "TWOU". We filed a certificate of amendment to its Articles of Incorporation with the State of Delaware on October 1, 2003 to change its name to Golden Spirit Minerals Ltd. The name change reflects our decision to shift our Company's focus from internet-based business development to mineral exploration. On October 8, 2003, the trading symbol for the Company became "GSPM". On October 19, 2004, we changed our Company’s name to Golden Spirit Mining Ltd. and the trading symbol was "GSML". On July 18, 2005 we changed our name to Golden Spirit Gaming Ltd. The trading symbol was “GSGL”. On June 30, 2006 we changed our name to Golden Spirit Enterprises Ltd. The trading symbol is currently “GSPT”.
We were originally incorporated to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of Delaware. Our Company was inactive from September 13, 1993, through November 1998, when it began the process of identifying potential business interests, including, but not necessarily limited to, interests in oil and natural gas producing properties.
On August 17, 2005, we incorporated Golden Spirit Poker Company Limited, a British Virgin Islands Corporation. Our Company, Golden Spirit Gaming Ltd. (“GSGL”), was issued 10 shares of this company for consideration of $10, representing 100% of the issued capital of Golden Spirit Poker Company Limited.
Our Business. Given the popularity of the internet, in general, and the relatively high profit margins and low overhead associated with the internet gaming business, we decided to focus our efforts towards online poker. Therefore, our overall success and viability are directly dependent upon the success of the Golden Spirit Poker.com website. We entered into a Software Sub-licensing (“SSL”) Agreement with Arc 2 Entertainment, Inc. (“Arc2”), a British Virgins Islands Corporation on July 12, 2005, to begin developing the Company’s online gaming website (see online gaming business development below).
2
Our Company has ownership of Golden Spirit Poker.com (“GSP”), an offshore online poker information and gaming website. GSP is an online poker site which has access to a broad player based network, enabling players to readily find a table to have a game of poker. GSP’s poker site is easy to navigate and offers free lessons for novices that understand the basics of the game to significantly speed up the learning curve.
The www.goldenspiritpoker4fun.net site provides free play with “play money” so that players may practice their skills in poker games with various limits without the risk of losing real money. People who previously had no way to learn and improve their game because they had no one to play with, are now able to learn the game at a quicker pace and gain invaluable experience from free money play.
GSP’s site offers players the chance to play in private tables (invitation only) with their own select group of friends or certain celebrities during special events. Regular tournaments and satellite tournaments will be available by which players can win jackpots and have an opportunity to win entries into real life poker tournaments.
In 2005, we decided that maintaining interests in mineral resource properties should no longer be our focus. However, we have continued our investment in the Niger property but do not anticipate any new investments in any other mineral properties.
Prior Business. Our Company’s initial focus was on the development of oil and natural gas properties. In this regard, interests in two properties were purchased; one in the United States and one in Canada. In or around December 1999, we decided to review the focus of the business, primarily the direction our Company would take with the various oil and gas projects. It was also decided that maintaining interests in oil and gas producing properties should no longer be the focus. Due to the growth of the internet, we decided to pursue internet-related activities. It was determined that Internet-related activities would provide a positive revenue stream sooner than oil and gas producing activities. Due to the lack of success with the internet activities, a decision was made to abandon this business. In 2003, we decided to pursue opportunities in mineral exploration and development.
In mid-2005, due to the limited success with both the internet activities and the mineral exploration and development activities, we decided to focus on online gaming.
Our Investment in Avalon Energy Corporation
During 2002, our Company sold 360,961 shares of Avalon Energy Corporation ("Avalon"), a public company with directors and significant shareholders in common, for proceeds of $50,663 resulting in a gain of $7,452. Effective September 30, 2002, we had determined that the value of its investment in Avalon had become permanently impaired and as a result, wrote down its investment by $313,301. For the period from January 1, 2002 to September 30, 2002, a net equity loss in Avalon totaling $346,053 was recorded. During the fourth quarter of 2002, Avalon issued shares of its common stock from treasury resulting in a significant reduction of our Company's equity interest in Avalon to approximately 4%. As a result, we reclassified our investment in Avalon from an equity investment to available-for-sale securities whereby its value is carried at market.
During 2003, our Company purchased 303,750 shares of Avalon for $55,786 and sold 355,750 shares for net proceeds of $74,710 and realized a loss of $38,764. Effective December 31, 2003, an unrealized loss in the carrying value of our available-for-sale securities totaling $115 was recorded as other comprehensive income for the year. Effective December 31, 2004, an unrealized loss in the carrying value of our available-for-sale securities totaling $1,126 was recorded as a comprehensive loss for the year.
Effective December 31, 2005, an unrealized gain in the carrying value of our Company’s available-for-sale securities totaling $1,112 was recorded as other comprehensive income for the year. As at June 30, 2006, we own 10,351 shares of Avalon's common stock with a fair value of $1,377.

Our Mineral Properties
Niger Property
On April 4, 2005, we signed a Memorandum of Understanding with a private corporation to acquire a Uranium Concession on the African continent. We paid a Cdn $5,000 consultant fee to a third party to commence the process of acquiring a prospecting permit from the Niger Ministry of Mines which will be valid for thirty (30) years. Our Company also agreed to issue 30,000,000 (pre-reverse split) non-refundable restricted Rule 144 common shares upon signing the memorandum, and issue a further 70,000,000 (pre-reverse split) restricted Rule 144 common shares and pay an additional Cdn $5,000 once the Ministry of Mines issues the Prospecting Permit. As at June 30, 2006, the Prospecting Permit has not been issued. Our Company has issued 20,000,000 of the non-refundable shares during the period ending March 31, 2006 and 10,000,000 of the non-refundable shares during the period ending June 30, 2006; these shares have a total fair value of $600,000. This amount has been expensed.
Online Gaming Business Development:
On July 12, 2005, our Company entered into a Software Sub License Agreement (“SSL agreement”) with Arc2 Entertainment (“Arc2”), a British Virgin Islands Corporation whereby Arc2 agreed to build, operate and manage our online gaming website, Golden Spirit Poker.com. Arc2 is an online gaming software development and marketing company that has licensed our Company the rights to route users to such software utilized for the operation on online gaming. Refer to activities subsequent to December 31, 2005 for terms of the amended agreement entered into on January 12, 2006.
Our online gaming website, where people are able to come and “play for free”, was launched in early September 2005. This first “play for free” phase was intended to draw players while the live version, where players are able to play on the site for cash, was being developed. The live version was launched in February 2006 using software developed under the subsequent amended agreement with Arc2. We will receive compensation for hosting games between players by collecting a percentage (rake) from each real money pot.
The total consideration to be paid to Arc2 by the Company is as follows:
(a) Initial fee: We originally agreed to pay, under the original SSL Agreement, Arc2 a license acquisition website and development fee in the amount of $100,000, $80,000 due upon execution (paid) and $20,000 would be due upon launch of the live website where players are able to play on the site for real money. Our Company negotiated with Arc2 to accept the $80,000 as payment in full; therefore, we are not obligated to make the $20,000 final payment.
(b) Monthly license fee: Our Company shall pay to Arc2 an ongoing monthly fee based on a monthly amount equivalent to 28 % of the net monthly revenue generated by our website.
(c) Payment for consulting fees: Upon the signing of this agreement, our Company issued 100,000,000 pre-reverse split Rule 144 restricted shares of its common stock (currently held in trust) with a fair value of $2,000,000 to Arc2 and its designees. This amount has been recorded as deferred compensation as a separate component of stockholders’ deficit and will be amortized using the straight-line method as consulting expenses over the three-year term of the SSL Agreement. During the three months ended June 30, 2006, we recorded amortization in the amount of $166,666.
Amendment to Licensing Agreement:
On January 12, 2006, we entered into an amended licensing agreement with Arc 2, titled Internet Poker Room, Casino and Sportsbook Software Licensing Agreement. The amended agreement will give our Company access to a broader base network of players online for poker games in addition software for casino table games such as blackjack, roulette, baccarat, craps, slot machines and video poker. The casino software is available in several different languages such as French, Italian, Japanese, Korean, German, Chinese, Turkish and Spanish. Although the sportsbook software is included, it will not be utilized at this time.
Under the amended SSL agreement, consideration paid to Arc2 by us was modified as follows:
4
Initial fee: Our Company shall pay Arc2 an additional one-time, non-refundable license acquisition fee in the amount of $100,000 to enter into this amended agreement. This $100,000 is in addition to the $80,000 previously paid to Arc2 in connection to the original software. As a result of the amended SSL agreement, we wrote-off the initial $80,000 of capitalized web site development costs due to the initial software acquired being replaced with new software. Arc2 and its designees are to retain the 100,000,000 pre-reverse split rule 144 restricted shares of its common stock with a fair market value of $2,000,000 as under the original agreement for ongoing consulting fees.
Monthly license fee: We shall pay to Arc2 an ongoing monthly fee based on a monthly amount equivalent to 30% of the net monthly revenue. As of June 30, 2006, $2,343 has been paid to Arc2.
A monthly support fee will be paid to the licensor or its designee in the amount of $1,000. Said fees shall commence upon the launch of the site. This fee may be reasonably adjusted on a semi-annual basis to reflect the growth of licensee's website traffic and customer service requirements. This fee was waived for the first 3 months after launch.
This fee covers the following services provided to the Company:
- Development of new software
- Management of financial processing
- Management of player withdrawals
- Customer service support
- Sports content management
- Hosting and collocation of web servers
- Hosting and collocation of gaming and transaction servers
Our Company shall maintain a player reserve account to be held by the licensor in the amount of $10,000. Said account shall only be used pursuant to the terms of this agreement. This amount may be reasonably adjusted on an ongoing basis to reflect the growth of our customer transactions.
We shall maintain a poker network reserve account to be held by the licensor or its poker network designee in the amount of $10,000 or 80% of on-hand poker balances, whichever is greater. Said account shall only be used pursuant to the terms of the amended SSL agreement.
Online Gaming Operations:
Gross revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2006 were $6,458. Total expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2006 were $35,331 which consisted primarily of sponsorship fees of $25,000.
To date, there are approximately 1,000 registered players on GSP with about 35% of those players depositing funds into their accounts.

On March 30, 2006, we issued Ron Rose 300,000 pre-reverse split restricted Rule 144 common shares valued at $9,000 as consideration for joining our Company and to be a featured player in the GSP - VIP Room.
On June 26, 2006, GSP sponsored Ron Rose in the amounts of $1,500 and $2,000 for two tournaments at the 2006 World Series of Poker. It has been agreed that any monetary winnings from the above mentioned tournaments will firstly be used to repay GSP for the buy-in fees used to enter RR into the tournaments and secondly, will be split 50:50 between RR and the Company. RR also agrees to help promote the Company by wearing clothing with GSP’s logo during the WSOP events.
In addition, we have contracted one of the top professional card players in the world, Mr. Jean-Robert Bellande to exclusively market its poker related products.
Termination of Acquisition of 4KE:
On July 11, 2005, our Company had entered into an agreement with 4 of A Kind Enterprises (4KE), a Nevada Corporation, whereby we would acquire 100% of 4KE. Our Company placed 25,000,000 restricted common shares in escrow pending completion of the acquisition of 4KE, doing business as EverythingAboutPoker.com. 4KE specializes in the business of marketing poker related merchandise, internet media, educational card playing and boot-camp events through its website EverythingAboutPoker.com. 4KE also sponsors professional poker players in major televised tournaments.
6
As of March 31, 2006, we had advanced $120,700 on behalf of 4KE to third parties for poker player sponsorships in certain televised poker tournaments. This amount has been expensed as marketing costs in 2005 as our Company and 4KE do not expect to be able to recoup the funds advanced. Our Company and 4KE are now contemplating legal action to recover approximately $93,000 of the monies advanced for the tournaments mentioned for breach of contract since the tournaments were not televised.
The completion date of the acquisition was extended to March 31, 2006 by mutual consent and the finalization of the agreement was subject to the satisfactory completion of due diligence. This was to include the receipt of 4KE’s audited financial statements, our approval thereof, and the resolution to the satisfaction of the lawsuit from an individual formerly under contract with 4KE.
We have concluded our due diligence in connection with the proposed acquisition of 4KE and our Board of Directors determined not to proceed with this acquisition. On April 18, 2006, we gave formal written notice to 4KE that the agreement was terminated. In accordance with the formal termination, the 25,000,000 (pre-reverse split) restricted Rule 144 shares of our Company issued to 4KE, which were held in trust, has been returned to us by the trustee for cancellation and returned to our treasury.
There are no further obligations arising from the termination of the agreement.
Results of Operations
Our Company has not yet realized any significant revenue from operations. During the three months ended June 30, 2006, we incurred $334,386 in general and administrative expenses including, but not limited to, expenses for consulting fees, management fees, investor relations and office and general expenses. We also incurred poker royalties and processing fees in the amount of $10,331. The general and administrative expenses for the corresponding period in 2005 were $350,706. The slight decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to a decrease in consulting fees to a significant shareholder. Net loss from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $338,259. Our net loss for the corresponding period in 2005 was a comparative $350,706.
During the six months ended June 30, 2006, we incurred $665,940 in general and administrative expenses which included consulting fees, management fees, investor relations and office and general expenses. General and administrative expenses for the corresponding period in 2005 were $1,023,356. The primary factor in the decrease in expenses can be attributed to a large decrease in consulting fees due to the expiration of numerous consulting agreements. We have incurred net losses of $15,215,935 since inception on September 13, 1993.
Our Plan of Operation for the Next 12 Months.
Our Company anticipates that there will be a need to raise additional capital within the next 12 months in order to continue as a going concern. Such additional capital may be raised through additional private financings, as well as borrowings and other resources. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or equity-related securities, the issuance of such securities will result in dilution of our stockholders. There can be no assurance that additional funding will be available on favorable terms, if at all. If adequate funds are not available within the next 12 months, we may be required to curtail its operations significantly or to obtain funds through entering into arrangements with collaborative partners or others that may require us to relinquish rights to certain assets that we would not otherwise relinquish.
We anticipate certain expenditures within the next 12 months for the online poker website for marketing and ongoing website development. (See Part I above). We do not anticipate any significant research and development, any leases or purchases of any significant equipment, nor do we anticipate any significant change in the number of our employees within the next 12 months. Our Company agreed to issue a further 70,000,000 pre-reverse split restricted Rule 144 common shares and pay an additional Cdn $5,000 once the Ministry of Mines issues the Prospecting Permit related to the Niger property. We are not aware of any other material commitment or condition that may affect its liquidity within the next 12 months.

The Following are Material Subsequent Events (Occurring after June 30, 2006).
On July 12, 2006, the Company entered into an Affiliate Program Agreement with Massey Resources, LLC, a Nevada Corporation, doing business as Your Mental Edge (YME). YME is in the business of developing programs for golfers and gamblers to instill the confidence and focus necessary for them to succeed. The Company will provide the YME logo link on its website, as well as assisting YME to get their logo link on other partnered websites. In exchange the Company will receive a 25% commission from YME for any person that visits their site from the logo link on the Company’s website and purchases either a Casino Series or Golf Series program. An additional 5% net commission will be paid to the Company for those who purchase programs coming from the Company’s partnered sites.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2006, our Company had total assets of $133,444 including $396 in accounts receivable, $20,082 due from Legacy Mining Ltd., and $1,377 in available-for-sale securities. At June 30, 2006, we had total current liabilities of $283,426, of which $53,730 was represented by accounts payable and accrued liabilities, $173,400 due to Avalon Energy Corporation, and $56,296 due to related parties. At June 30, 2006, we had $26,665 in current assets and $283,426 in total current liabilities which resulted in a working capital deficit of $256,761.
We do not have available cash to pay the day-to-day expenditures; therefore, our Company relies on advances from related parties to provide the necessary funds to pay these day-to-day expenditures. We have one other external source of funding, that being the sale of our Company’s common stock.
No assurance can be given, however, that we will have access to additional cash in the future, or that funds will be available on acceptable terms to satisfy our working capital requirements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments-an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140, to simplify and make more consistent the accounting for certain financial instruments. SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, to permit fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument with an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation, provided that the whole instrument is accounted for on a fair value basis. SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 140, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, to allow a qualifying special-purpose entity to hold a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. SFAS No. 155 applies to all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006, with earlier appl ication allowed. This standard is not expected to have a significant effect on our Company’s future reported financial position or results of operations.
In March 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 156 ("SFAS No. 156"), Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. SFAS No. 156 requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities be initially measured at fair value, if practicable, and permits for subsequent measurement using either fair value measurement with changes in fair value reflected in earnings or the amortization and impairment requirements of Statement No. 140. The subsequent measurement of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities at fair value eliminates the necessity for entities that manage the risks inherent in servicing assets and servicing liabilities with derivatives to qualify for hedge accounting treatment and eliminates the characterization of declines in fair value as impairments or direct write-downs. SFAS 156 is effective for an entity's first fiscal year beginning after September 15, 2006.

ITEM 3. Controls and Procedures
a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Financial Officer, have performed an evaluation of our Company's disclosure controls and procedures, as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), as of June 30, 2006 and each has concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Company’s periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms.
(b) Changes in Internal Controls. There were no changes in our Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of the evaluation.
Code of Ethics:
We intend to adopt a code of ethics in 2006 that applies to the principle executive officer, principal financial officer, principle accounting officer or controller, and other persons performing similar functions. We also intend to post the text of our Company’s code of ethics on the website in connection with the "Investor Relations" materials. In addition, we intend to promptly disclose (1) the nature of any amendment to our Company’s code of ethics that applies to our principle executive officer, principal financial officer, principle accounting officer or controller, and other persons performing similar functions (2) the nature of any wavier, including an implicit wavier, from a provision of our Company’s code of ethics that is granted to one of these specific officers, the name of such person who is granted the waiver and the date of the waiver on our website in the future.
Our Company does not currently have a code of ethics as this is a new regulatory requirement. We will be examining the various forms and contents of other companies’ written code of ethics, discussing the merits and meaning of a code of ethics to determine the best form for our Company.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
On May 2, 2003, our Company issued 450,000 shares valued at $9,000 to a consultant pursuant to a stock option incentive plan. The consultant failed to meet the terms of the stock option agreement by not paying the exercise price and as a result, we requested the return of the 450,000 shares. The consultant refused to return the shares; therefore we issued a stop transfer and commenced legal proceedings to recover the shares. The consultant subsequently filed a Statement of Claim against us for damages of $53,000 Cdn. On April 29, 2005, the Supreme Court of British Columbia issued a judgment awarding the plaintiff $15,000 Cdn in damages and $7,180 Cdn in costs. However, the 450,000 shares were to be returned to us (not yet received). In September 2005, our Company and the plaintiff agreed to payment terms to settle this damage award by a payment of $6,080 Cdn (paid) and a payment schedule of $1,000 Cdn per month for the remaining balance of the judgment commencing December 1, 2005. The $6,080 Cdn payment was made as the result of a bailiff’s executed court order on September 28, 2005, seizing our Company’s bank account. No further payments have been made towards the settlement agreement due to the Plaintiff’s refusal to sign the order.

On September 28, 2005, we received notice of a lawsuit from Thomas L. Franklin, a professional poker player formerly under contract with 4KE, for an alleged breach of contract for services rendered based on the original contract between our Company and 4KE dated July 18, 2005. Our Company, 4KE, and certain individuals, are being sued for $967,500, plus interest at the rate of 8% per annum from August 22, 2005, and all costs pertaining to this legal matter. The outcome of this litigation and an estimate of loss and the impact, if any, are presently not determinable and no provision for loss relating to this lawsuit has been recorded at June 30, 2006.
On November 2, 2005, we filed a lien with the State of Alaska against the Ester Creek property. The lien was filed as our attempt to register title to the property in our name was blocked by the vendor of the property. The process for filing the Lien on the property was initiated in September 2005, prior to our decision to sell the interest in the property to Legacy. We intend to resolve this issue with the vendor. In the meantime, we have sold our interest in our Ester Creek claims to Legacy.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment”, which replaced SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” and superseded APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”. In January 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 107, “Share-Based Payment”, which provides supplemental implementation guidance for SFAS No. 123R. SFAS No. 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on the grant date fair value of the award. SFAS No. 123R was to be effective for interim or annual reporting periods beginning on or after June 15, 2005, but in April 2005 the SEC issued a rule that will permit most registrants to implement SFAS No. 123R at the beginning of their next fiscal year, instead of the next reporting perio d as required by SFAS No. 123R. The pro-forma disclosures previously permitted under SFAS No. 123 no longer will be an alternative to financial statement recognition. Under SFAS No. 123R, the Company must determine the appropriate fair value model to be used for valuing share-based payments, the amortization method for compensation cost and the transition method to be used at date of adoption. The transition methods include prospective and retroactive adoption options. Under the retroactive options, prior periods may be restated either as of the beginning of the year of adoption or for all periods presented. The prospective method requires that compensation expense be recorded for all unvested stock options and restricted stock at the beginning of the first quarter of adoption of SFAS No. 123R, while the retroactive methods would record compensation expense for all unvested stock options and restricted stock beginning with the first period restated. We have adopted the requirements of SFAS No. 123R for the f iscal year beginning on January 1, 2006. The Company did not record any compensation expense in the first quarter of 2006 because there were no unvested stock options existing prior to the adoption. Stock-based compensation expense for awards granted prior to January 1, 2006 were based on the grant date fair-value as determined under the pro-forma provisions of SFAS No. 123.
