A system enables a method of executing a game of baccarat with a side bet event. The system includes a gaming table with at least two distinct player positions. The gaming table having positions thereon for placing an initial wager on the game of baccarat and for placing a second wager on the side bet event from at least one of at least two player positions at the gaming table on the game of baccarat, the side bet resolved by final playing cards at the player hand position and the banker hand position. Each of the at least two player positions has a secondary random outcome indicator display. The gaming table has a random event generator providing distinct random event outcome indicators to the secondary random outcome indicator displays at each player position and each distinct random event outcome indicator represents a single digit number value.

A system for use with computing devices each associated with one of a plurality of customers. The system includes a customer application executing on each of the computing devices and a computing system that receives requests, from a requesting portion of the computing devices, to purchase a product not yet available for purchase. The computing system assigns potential reservations to selected winning ones of the customers associated with the requesting portion, receives confirmations from a confirmed portion of the selected winning customers, converts the potential reservations to actual reservations for the confirmed portion, and transmits a code to each of the confirmed portion of the selected winning customers only after the selected winning customer submits validation information that the computing system determines satisfies validation criteria. A merchant transfers the product to one of the customers at a physical store location only if the customer provides the code to the merchant.

A lottery ticket dispensing system includes an array having bins that dispense a pack of scratch-off lottery tickets, wherein each ticket includes game play characters covered by a scratch-off coating. A pack code for each ticket pack is associated with a computer database file maintained by a central server that includes identification of some of the game play characters for each of the tickets in the pack and location of the pack. A display is in communication with the central server and, based on ticket location information from the central server, is configured to reveal to players the game play characters of at least certain ones of the scratch-off lottery tickets remaining in the array.

Systems and methods for rendering of a virtual content object in an augmented reality environment based on a physical marker are discussed herein. Virtual content objects may be rendered by a display device in an augmented reality environment based on the field of view seen through the display device and a position of a marker (and one or more linkage points associated with the marker) in the real world. When rendered in the augmented reality environment, the virtual content objects may be visualized from any angle, from the exterior or interior of the object, and manipulated in response to user input. Virtual content objects and/or user visualizations of virtual content objects may be shared with other users (local and/or remote), enabling multiple users to potentially build, modify, and/or interact with a virtual content object simultaneously and/or cooperatively.

An access restriction system having a true random number generator (TRNG) to generate true random keys based on quantum-level physical properties and hub computer to provide those keys. An access-restricted component executes one or more tasks in response to receiving a verified task instruction. A component computer associated with the access-restricted component receives true random keys from the hub computer and stores the keys to a memory. A controller provides a task request to the component computer that includes a task instruction paired with a key. The component computer then verifies the task instruction by comparing and ensuring that the true random key stored to the memory matches the key received from the controller with the task request and then provides the verified task to the access-restricted component. The access-restricted component then carries out the verified task instruction.

A lottery number generating assembly includes a housing, a control circuit positioned within the housing and a random number generator positioned within the housing. The random number generator randomly selects five numbers each ranging between 1 and 99 when the random number generator is turned on to randomly select numbers for playing power ball lottery or mega ball lottery. A plurality of touch screens is each coupled to the housing and each of the touch screens is electrically coupled to the control circuit. Each of the touch screens displays indicia comprising a respective one of the randomly selected numbers to display the randomly selected numbers for a user to play the power ball lottery or the mega ball lottery.

A server device including: a memory configured to store lottery information, winning information, and computer-readable instructions; and a processor. The lottery information is obtained by conversion processing for input information that is input via an input interface in a terminal device of a user. The winning information is a predetermined character string. The processor is configured to execute the computer readable instructions to determine whether the lottery information matches the winning information, to create lottery result information, and to transmit the lottery result information to the terminal device according to the determination.

Systems and methods of operating a wheel are described herein. The wheel includes a plurality of game wedges and a wedge selector. The plurality of game wedges includes a first variable wedge, a second variable wedge, and at least one moveable wedge. Each game wedge is associated with a respective award and a respective probability of selection. The method includes generating, using a random-number generator, a random number representing a selected game wedge of the plurality of game wedges, causing the wedge selector to visibly identify the selected game wedge, and in response to a trigger game wedge of the game wedges being the selected game wedge, shifting the moveable wedge around the wheel to change a visible size of the first variable wedge and the respective probability of selection of the first variable game wedge proportional to the change in visible size.
