The scope of the Colloquium includes the following topics: - combinatorial problems in gambling (e.g. lottery, keno, etc.) - statistical testing of gambling devices - gambling in mathematical education - bankruptcy estimations - lottery - market analysis - probabilities of sequence patterns - card shuffling - estimates of odds for totalisator agencies - gambling and the history of mathematics - furthermore any mathematical theories related to roulette, blackjack, redfox, bingo, lottery, toto, keno, dice games, card games. The Organizing Committee is the following: G. O. H. Katona (chair) G. Wiener (secretary) Z. F\"uredi, P. R\'ev\'esz, G. Sz\'ekely J, the Program Committee consists of B. Alspach, T. Nemetz, L. P\'alffy, Y.V. Prohorov. We would be happy to welcome you in our Colloquium. In case you are interested in it, please send an e-mail to our address of jatek@math-inst.hu .
