摘要： A system having a plurality of interconnected controls is provided for playing multiple-wager casino card games using gaming tables found at one or more casinos. Both physical and electronic cards can be utilized, depending on game play outcomes. Information related to game play can be sent by one or more table controls to a central control through one or more casino controls for use in generating additional information. A token detection apparatus, which includes a particular one of the table controls, provides un-modulated light for use in detecting whether or not a token is present as part of game play. The token is used in making a progressive/fixed amount wager.

摘要： A communication system is provided that is preferably a peer-to-peer (p2p) system. One or both of audio and video can be transferred among a number of user terminals in the p2p system. The user terminals can include at least one master terminal, which could be an unhosted master terminal that does not communicate its own audio and/or video. In one embodiment, a first master terminal is included that controls video or audio, or both, transfers among user terminals and an unhosted second master terminal is provided that communicates with at least two user terminals to provide desired connectivity involving such user terminals in order to ensure proper audio and/or video communications between or among them. In another embodiment, an unhosted master terminal is provided with the communication system when the user terminals include mobile terminals in order to avoid power usage by mobile terminals. This communication system can be utilized with online game playing in which a game server is included, as well as having other communication applications.
摘要翻译： 提供了优选为对等（p2p）系统的通信系统。 音频和视频中的一个或两个可以在p2p系统中的多个用户终端之间传送。 用户终端可以包括至少一个主终端，其可以是不通信其自己的音频和/或视频的未主机主终端。 在一个实施例中，包括控制用户终端之间的视频或音频或两者的第一主终端，并且提供与至少两个用户终端进行通信以提供涉及这样的用户终端的期望连接的未主机的第二主终端，以便 确保在它们之间或之间进行适当的音频和/或视频通信。 在另一个实施例中，当用户终端包括移动终端以避免移动终端的电力使用时，向主机主终端提供通信系统。 该通信系统可以与包括游戏服务器的在线游戏一起使用，以及具有其他通信应用。

摘要： A card reading apparatus is provided for playing a casino table game identified as Down Under Blackjack™. The apparatus includes a camera assembly, a computer, a housing assembly and a plurality of color indicators. The computer receives pixel-based image data from the camera assembly. This data is obtained from the dealer's down card during play of the game. The computer processes this data to output information related to a predetermined set of playing cards associated with the down card. Such output activates one of the color indicators corresponding to that particular predetermined set. The information associated with the activated indicator can be used by players in playing the Down Under Blackjack™ game. Use of the apparatus enables the game to be played using conventional playing cards.

摘要： Video of players is used to monitor them while they are playing online games. Each player utilizes a user terminal that includes a camera. Video, such as a player's face, from each camera is sent during game play to an observer system that includes a monitor. An observer can view players' faces using the monitor in connection with the observer making decisions related to players' behaviors and ages in order to regulate player online game play. Players are able to generate reports regarding other players' behaviors and appearances, which are sent to the controller, for review by the observer. Information related to a player's behavior and/or appearance could also be automatically generated using a player's video.

摘要： A peer-to-peer (p2p) communication system is provided. One or both of audio and video can be transferred among a number of user terminals in the p2p system. The user terminals include at least one master terminal. The master terminal controls video or audio, or both, transfers among user terminals. The master terminal is identified, based on a determined topology, using obtained information provided in a data parameters table. Each user terminal includes a control for processing video and/or audio that is sent/received by the user terminal. Such processing can include encoding/decoding of video and/or audio. The master terminal control can process the same video and generate different video data to be provided to different user terminals. Such different video data is a function of the communication paths between the master terminal and the different user terminals. The master terminal control can also process the same audio and generate different audio data to be provided to different user terminals. Such different audio data can be a function of virtual relative positions associated with the user terminals. Audio volumes can also be separately controlled by each user terminal, including turning off audio volumes associated with one or more other user terminals. Similar controls can be provided for identity-related video images. Video and/or audio can be transferred in an aggregate manner, such as when the master terminal sends audio originating from a number of user terminals to another user terminal. In one embodiment, the master terminal control includes a Flash Player already configured to communicate with numerous webcams. This p2p system can be utilized with online game playing in which a game server is included, as well as having other communication applications.
