Press Release Body = HILVERSUM, Netherlands--May 11, 2006--SPILL GROUP and skill
game provider GameAccount have joined forces to launch the next generation in online
Backgammon. GameAccount\'s browser-based GammonTournaments.com requires minimal
download effort, which unlike other online backgammon games, can be played
immediately. Furthermore, GammonTournaments.com has been designed to appeal to the
broadest range of players, from recreational newcomers to the more serious
experienced player. The site\'s target demographic is both men and women. The
multiplayer games will offer several options, including \'MoneyPlay\' and \'MatchPlay\'
scoring formats. GameAccount also offers single players the opportunity to play
against revolutionary \"playerbots\" of all skill levels.


Backgammon is a hugely popular global parlour game that has migrated successfully
online. Hundreds of thousands of people enjoy a game of virtual Backgammon and are
willing to pay to take their chances at winning money prizes. The idea of creating
GammonTournaments.com came naturally to the SPILL GROUP and GameAccount - who have
empowered players to stake up to as much as EUR 250, potentially pocketing nearly
twice as much in winnings.

GameAccount\'s Backgammon games are designed to maximize speed in order to meet
players\' needs for fast results. GammonTournament\'s games are classified as skill
games and will therefore be distributed across all Spill Group\'s portals.

Players can compete worldwide, owing to the fact that the GameAccount technology
platform can seamlessly handle all multi-currency and multilingual features required
by the SPILL GROUP. Another convenient advantage is GammonTournaments.com ability to
offer several reputable and secure payment methods for customers.

\"Choosing GameAccount as partner for setting up GammonTournaments.com was relatively
easy, because we continue to work together very successfully. GameAccount is well
known for their ability to provide high quality skill games and we are delighted to
expand our cooperation,\" said Reinout te brake, Marketing & Business Development
Director of SPILL GROUP.
