A method of monitoring user behavior to adjust betting odds based upon that behavior or to identify users who may be cheating, where users are subscribers of a proprietary data management and analytic software system/wagering platform. The system monitors users' behavior for deviations from their normal betting habits or patterns to detect cheating and lower the threshold for winning when user patterns change.

A system detects a transaction outcome by obtaining video data associated with a transaction area and analyzing the video data to obtain at least one video transaction parameter concerning transactions associated with the transaction area. The transaction area can be a video count of items indicated in the video data as detected by an automated item detection algorithm applied to the video data. The system obtains at least one expected transaction parameter concerning an expected transaction that occurs in the transaction area, such as a scan count of items scanned at a point of sale terminal. The system automatically compares the video transaction parameter(s) to the expected transaction parameter(s) to identify a transaction outcome that may indicate fraudulent activity such as sweethearting in a retail environment.

Systems and methods are provided for providing playing cards. An exemplary method may include retrieving data related to a selection of a set of numbers for bingo and determining matching bingo patterns on a predetermined number of cards from a library of bingo cards against the set of selected numbers. The method may further include selecting corresponding playing cards based on the matching bingo patterns on the predetermined number of cards and providing the corresponding playing cards for display. The exemplary method may be used to deal playing cards for poker using a set of selected numbers.

Systems and methods are disclosed for associating a player identifier with a financial account. The financial account can holds funds that are accessible through the player's use of a payment vehicle. The payment vehicle can be, for example, a credit payment vehicle or a debit payment vehicle. The player can load funds from the financial account to a wagering account.

A game token by which a plurality of RFID tags embedded in a plurality of the game tokens stacked each other can be read in a relatively stable manner is provided. A game token is provided with a security part and a receiving part that receives the security part. The security part has a shape with a diameter smaller than the diameter of the receiving part, a structure with a plurality of plastic layers laminated together, an RFID tag, and a visible print layer indicating a type or ID of the game token. The receiving part has a surface. The surface of the receiving part has a recessed portion for receiving the security part, and the depth of the recessed portion is 25% or more of the thickness of the game token.

Embodiments relate to systems, methods and computer readable media for gaming monitoring. In particular, embodiments process images to determine presence of a gaming object on a gaming table in the images. Embodiments estimate postures of one or more players in the images and based on the estimated postures determine a target player associated with the gaming object among the one or more players.

A gaming machine has a main or master gaming controller for presenting primary games based upon wagers of primary credits associated with a primary credit balance. A secondary controller is associated with the gaming machine for presenting secondary games or based upon wagers of secondary credits associated with a secondary credit balance. The secondary controller may present additional features and may effectuate transfers of credits between the primary and secondary credit balances.

Systems and methods that provide one or more mobile device facilitated non-cash avenues to redeem a ticket voucher associated with an amount of funds.

Systems, methods, devices, and computer readable media for monitoring card game activities at gaming tables, such as for example, counting the number of card hands at gaming tables. The devices may include a sensor array network to detect game events; a microcontroller for running logic level code for checking sensors of the sensors of the sensor array network for pre-defined thresholds defining the detected game events and in response generating game event data; and a connection cable for coupling to a server device for transmitting the game event data. Systems may connect client hardware devices with sensors for monitoring card game activities. A game monitoring server may collect, process and aggregate hand event data received from the client hardware devices to generate hand count data for gaming tables. A front end interface device may receive notifications relating to hand count data for provision to end user systems.

A method includes: processing a request to execute a transaction of a virtual asset of a video game; responsive to the request, accessing a blockchain to perform an anti-fraud verification, including analyzing data of a prior transaction involving the virtual asset; responsive to the anti-fraud verification providing a result that does not indicate fraudulent activity, then generating transaction data based on an identifier for the first user account, an identifier for the second user account, an identifier for the virtual asset, and state data of the virtual asset, and submitting the transaction data to a node network, to write the transaction data to a block of the blockchain; receiving confirmation of the writing of the transaction data; responsive to receiving the confirmation, then updating a registry of virtual assets to transfer ownership of the virtual asset from the first user account to the second user account.
