Elektroncek—Organic Virtual
The virtual family of G4 Organic gaming machines presents the feature of switchable games. This principle allows the gaming machine to swiftly switch from a currently running game into any other supported game (roulette, card or dice games). All games from the Virtual family of G4 Organic machines can be added as an extension to any Organic gaming machine. With an additional LCD or plasma display that shows the game progress, the player gains an option to participate in video-based games from any Organic gaming machine. Organic Virtual is the most attractive virtual table product on the market. The first release, virtual roulette, allows players to wager on a common, life-like roulette wheel and game layout that is horizontally placed in front of them. The Organic Virtual Roulette offers the same game play and wagers that are found on live games, but in a more relaxed and comfortable setting. For more information, visit www.elektroncek.eu.

Shuffle Master—i-Table Roulette
As the first non-card game extension of Shuffle Master’s i-Table platform, i-Table Roulette fuses the fun and excitement of live roulette with the benefits provided by electronic wagering. “It provides operators with a wealth of information not available on live tables,” said Product Manager Miranda McPhail. “For example, it stores all transactional data, which is accessible via various accounting reports. These reports enable the casino to verify the authenticity of each buy-in and cash-out, table drop, table win and losses and dealer tipping.” Player buy-in is credited to the player screen, and once the next round begins, they make their wagers on their screen’s layout. The dealer spins the ball and verifies the result, and all wins and losses are instantaneously and accurately resolved. Its central display replicates a traditional felt and displays all wagers, dealer tips and wagers made for the dealer. The table also includes a second tipping option that accounts for hand-in tips. “We estimate that roulette productivity will increase due to an increase in spins per hour, and revenue will reach a new level due to the increase in bet multiples per round of play,” McPhail said.
