Zone 4 Play Announces the Founding of Gaming Ventures PLC as Part of the Spin-off Process of its Black Jack Tournament Technology

Zone 4 Play Announces the Founding of Gaming Ventures PLC as Part of the Spin-off Process of its Black Jack Tournament Technology

WILMINGTON, Delaware, August 16/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Zone 4 Play, Inc. (OTCBB: ZFPI), a leading developer of
interactive gaming technology, announced today that it has founded Gaming
Ventures PLC - a wholly owned subsidiary incorporated in the Isle of Man, in
order to further enhance, market and operate its newly-developed multiplayer
Black Jack tournaments gaming technology, enabling Internet users to
participate in multiplayer Black Jack competitions where permitted by law.

Gaming Ventures purchased the Black Jack gaming technology from Zone4Play
based on a valuation made by an independent appraiser. On August 4, 2006,
Gaming Ventures filed a registration statement with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. To complete the spin-off, Zone4Play plans to set a
record date for a dividend of the shares of Gaming Ventures to Zone4Play's
shareholders as of such record date, on a one-to-one pro rata basis.

Gaming Ventures will have two main business models: one, through its
wholly owned subsidiary, Get21 Ltd ("Get21"), to market the multiplayer Black
Jack tournaments gaming directly to consumers and the second, through it's
wholly owned subsidiary, RNG Gaming Ltd, to further develop and license the
Black Jack gaming technology to third parties based on a license fee and
revenue share basis.

Get21 is expected to launch a Black Jack tournament service to non-US
customers in mid September. Get21 will seek to outsource to a third party the
part of operation that will include payment processing, customer support and
fraud and collusion prevention, while it retains and focuses on player
acquisition.

"We believe that the Black Jack tournaments gaming technology is a
valuable asset and that the founding of Gaming Ventures is the preferred way
to pursue this business opportunity for the benefit of our shareholders",
said Shimon Citron, CEO of Zone4Play.
