A detection system according to the present invention includes a control device that detects fraud conducted on a game table by using the image analysis result obtained by an image analysis device. In addition, each game token used in this detection system has a multilayer structure having plastic layers with a plurality of different colors stacked on each other, with a colored layer being provided at least intermediately, and white layers or light-colored layers (not illustrated, but may be any layers lighter in color than the colored layer) being stacked on two sides of the intermediate colored layer. As described above, this game token has a multi-layer structure including the colored layer, with the white layers or light-colored layers (not illustrated, but may be any layers lighter in color than the colored layer) being stacked on the two sides of the intermediate colored layer.

Systems and methods of conducting wagering games involving, among other things, a modified Blackjack wagering game including an option to resolve the game prior to a final determination and optional wagers on the final dealer hand score.

A system that manages a package of shuffled playing cards and gaming chips includes a storage box and a control apparatus. The storage box is provided in association with a game table and stores a plurality of shuffled playing cards and a plurality of chip cases and also includes a card reader that reads playing card ID codes of the shuffled playing cards and a chip reader that reads case ID codes of the chip cases. The control apparatus outputs total numbers of the shuffled playing cards and the chip cases stored in the storage box and the playing card ID codes and case ID codes stored in the storage box by monitoring read playing card ID codes and case ID codes.

In accordance with some embodiments there is provided an electronic gaming table system (e.g., a smart table operable to facilitate a card game, such as baccarat, blackjack or poker) which includes (i) at least one detecting mechanism for detecting a plurality of game elements (e.g., wagering chips) placed on, or removed from, a particular physical position of a physical table of the gaming table system to represent at least one wager for a particular game event; and (ii) a game controller operable to identify, based at least on data received from the at least one detecting mechanism, whether the plurality of game elements represent a single wager or multiple distinct wagers placed on the particular physical position and for the particular game event. In some embodiments, the detecting mechanism is an RFID antenna.

Provided are a card game table, on which betting is made in a win-loss method using numbers or patterns of cards and award rates for respective rounds are differentially applied to progress a game, and a game method using the same. The card game table includes a leg that is integrally fixed to a bottom surface of a game table and supports the game table at a certain height, a game pad that is provided on an upper surface of the game table at which a dealer and players are located and has a layout including a betting zone and a card placement zone necessary for progress of a card game, and a text indicating betting award rate information for each round on the upper surface of the game table adjacent to the betting zone.

Embodiments described herein relate to systems and methods for monitoring progressive game activities at a plurality of gaming tables. For example, embodiments described herein relate to systems and methods for monitoring that a bet for playing a progressive game was made, the amount of the bet, the position of the bet, the identification of the player who made the bet and the identification of the gaming table at which the bet was made. A progressive jackpot metric may be computed based on the data captured at the gaming table for increasing or decreasing one or more progressive jackpots. Visual elements corresponding to the one or more progressive jackpots may be rendered on a jackpot interface display.

A system that managing playing cards to which information is given by an RFID tag and gaming chips to which information is given by an RFID tag. A system is provided with a storage box integrally configured to contain a card drawer for storing playing cards and a chip drawer for storing gaming chips, a card RFID reader for reading information of an RFID tag attached to the playing cards stored in the card drawer, and a chip RFID reader for reading information of the RFID tag attached storing gaming chips stored in the chip drawer. A card RFID reader and a chip RFID reader reads information of each RFID tag using different frequencies.

A portable craps game incorporating a color-coding or other indicia system of wagering, which includes a game mat, the game mat incorporating various sections, for participatory play, including a pay grid, a roll area, placed bets area, a pass bets area, and a location for field bets during game play. The game is played with 1-6 players, and a dealer, and each player commits to selection of one of the colors or indicia in front of them, which committed to color remains with the player during participation in the said game. The player also selects the coloration in the pay grid area, so that the odds can increase, during participation in the game, so long as the player participates and is successful in their selection of the placed bets area. The throw of the dice by the various participants generally progresses clockwise around the game mat, during participation in this portable craps game. The game mat may be a pair of back-to-back tables, with a divider provided therebetween, and the pay grid area may be electronically displayed upon the divider.

In accordance with some embodiments, an RFID-enabled table game system provides for determining whether there is a variance between an expected balance of inventory and an actual balance of inventory in a game element container. If a variance is detected, the RFID-enabled game system may identify at least one characteristic associated with an RFID-enabled game element that is determined to be a source of the variance (e.g., a player position at which the RFID-enabled game element had last been detected, a denomination or value of the game element, and/or an identifier associated with the game element). In some embodiments, an alert may be output to game provider personnel (e.g., a dealer of a card game) at the end of a game play when such a variance is detected, thus allowing the variance to be corrected in an efficient and timely manner.

A game token tray system includes a game token tray having a dual tray structure in which a game token is stored. The game token tray system includes a double tray including a lower tray and an upper tray stacked on the lower tray to store a game token provided with an RF tag in which tag information is stored, a camera that acquires tray image data by imaging the game token stored in the upper tray, an RFID reading device that reads the tag information from the RF tag of the game token stored in the lower tray, and a game recording device that records the tray image data and/or an image analysis result of the tray image data about the game token stored in the upper tray and records the tag information read by the RFID reading device about the game token stored in the upper tray.
