Aaaand just fyi, Kaiji is born somewhat around 1975.
Just something on this topic:
In the anime, the narrator does not specify what year the story takes place in.
And according to this pic:

Endou has a VAIO laptop on his desk. This can possibly mean the time period is more recent than 1996...(I don't think there was a slim VAIO laptop back in 1996) which does not affect the story in any way, but from this, I think the anime verion of Kaiji is somewhat around the 21st century.
