CLARIDGE CASINO HOTEL

DESIGNATES NON-SMOKING AREAS


Atlantic City, NJ --- A survey conducted among customers of the Claridge
Casino Hotel showed that 75 percent of the men questioned were in favor of
non-smoking areas, and 72 percent of the women were for a non-smoking
facility.

In view of the strong response, Albert Britton, COO, announced that effective
July 1, 1995, there will be segregated areas of the casino designated
"smoke-free." This includes a 12,000 square foot sector containing about
600 slot machines of various types and denominations located on the second
floor, and the "Party Pit" off the main casino floor that includes 14 low-
limit blackjack tables. The non-smoking areas are segregated at one-third
of slot machine locations.

Britton noted that the new plan is in keeping with the Claridge focus on
customer service and the credo -- "Smaller is Friendlier."

TOURMALINES EXCITING HIGH LIMIT SLOT ROOM


Atlantic City, NJ --- Claridge Casino Hotel has an exciting high limit slot

magical powers of our exclusive Tourmalines slot machines; savor the mystery

CLARIDGE OFFERS SURRENDER BLACKJACK VARIATION


Atlantic City, NJ --- The Claridge offers Surrender, a variation of the basic 
game of blackjack. As a player's point total is announced, he/she may elect 
to discontinue play of his/her hand for that round and surrender only one-half 
of his/her wager.

If the first card dealt to the dealer is an Ace, King Queen, Jack, or 10, the
dealer will place the wager of the player wishing to surrender on top of the
player's cards. If, however, the dealer's hold card is revealed resulting in
a dealer blackjack, the entire player's wager will be collected by the 
dealer. Should the dealer's hand not reveal a blackjack, then one-half of 
the player's wager will be returned to the player.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE CLARIDGE OFFER THREE TIMES THE ACTION

WITH MULTIPLE ACTION BLACKJACK


Atlantic City, NJ --- The Claridge offers three times the action for your 
money with Multiple Action Blackjack. In this version of the game, players 
are all allowed to play three rounds of blackjack with a single hand against
the dealer's first hand, which is used for three rounds of play. Each round
is the same as one complete hand in regular blackjack.
