    Abstract: Managing a gaming venue floor layout can comprise maintaining a biometric information model and a floor layout model. Biometric information can be received from sensors associated with players in a gaming venue, each player using a gaming system of the gaming venue. The plurality of gaming systems can be physically located in the gaming venue according to a predefined floorplan for the gaming venue. An excitement level for each player of the plurality of players can be rated based on the received biometric information and the biometric information model. A heatmap representing the gaming venue can be created based on the rated excitement level for and a location of each player of the plurality of players in the gaming venue. The predefined floorplan for the gaming venue can be updated based on the created heatmap and the floor layout model.

    Abstract: Gaming systems and methods that automatically adjust the audio outputted by the gaming system based on a determination to make a change to the audio based on one or more of player related data and/or play related data. Upon an occurrence of an audio adjustment determination, the gaming system automatically makes an adjustment to the audio outputted by the gaming system. This automatic audio adjustment feature can be employed in association with the audio outputted in association with a play of a primary game, the audio outputted in association with a play of a secondary game, the audio outputted before a play of a primary game or before a play of a secondary game, and/or the audio outputted after a play of a primary game or after a play of a secondary game.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to gaming systems and, in particular, to back-betting within a gaming system. As an example, a back-betting system is disclosed to include a first communication interface that facilitates machine-to-machine communications with an Electronic Gaming Machine (EGM) of a gaming system, where the first communication interface is used to exchange state-of-play information with the EGM. The system is also disclosed to include a second communication interface that facilitates machine-to-machine communications with a mobile device, where the second communication interface is used to exchange back-bet wager information and deliver an indication of an outcome of a back-bet placed during a back-betting session established with the mobile device. The system may still further include a processor and a computer-readable storage medium with processor-executable instructions that limit a duration of the back-betting session based on an association existing between the EGM and the mobile device.
