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 RIFD 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.

A cone for use in a Pepper's Ghost illusion includes a conical wall of semi-reflective material, and an attachment member for removably attaching the cone to the surface of a light emissive display, and a method of displaying a Pepper's Ghost illusion includes positioning a cone of semi-reflective material onto a light emissive display; and displaying on the light emissive display an image that has been distorted by an inverse of a distortion caused by a reflection of the cone.

Gaming chips are provided with embedded radio frequency identification (RFID) tags incorporated into a gaming chip for identifying and tracking the gaming chips within a casino, and even upon a gaming table. The gaming chips have a body in the shape of a disc which has a loss tangent of 0.0078 or less, and more preferably of 0.007 or less. For chips operating at 900 MHz, the body has a dielectric constant of 5 or less, and preferably 3-5. For chips operating at 2.45 GHz, the body has a dielectric constant of 5-8. Preferably, the body is made of a blend of plastic, such as PVC, and a dielectric ceramic. The RFID is preferably sandwiched between layers of a high frequency circuit material including top and bottom layers and a center layer have a hole for receiving the RFID. Preferably, the layers of high frequency circuit material have a dielectric constant of 2.5-4 and a loss tangent of 0.002-0.006.

A re-configurable game board set can be used to play a variety of games in a variety of configurations and can be compacted for easy storage or transportation. The game board set can be of a size to easily fit on a tabletop and can use coins or similar tokens as playing pieces. Alternatively, the game board set could be larger to be played with larger playing pieces such as beanbags, balls, or discs. Games can be played with or without launching pads.

A board game is provided having a seven-by-seven play area and ten player tokens for each player. Each player's tokens are positioned on the play area in two rows of five along opposing sides of the play area. Players alternate turns, taking up to five orthogonal movements from one playing space to another on each turn, the five movements being allocated across up to five of the player's player tokens. When a player token is orthogonally surrounded on at least three sides by opposing player tokens, that player token is removed from the play area. Play continues until one player has only two player tokens remaining on the play area, at which time the opposing player is declared the winner.

A chip tray system can include multiple chip tube components. A first chip tube component in the chip tray can include one or more gaming chip storage rows corresponding to a first size of gaming chip. A second chip tube component in the chip tray can include one or more gaming chip storage rows corresponding to a second size of gaming chip. An edge of the first chip tube component can be coupled to an edge of the second chip tube component.
