    摘要: In accordance with some embodiments, a system for facilitating a card game is equipped with RFID antennas or interrogators operable to detect initial wagers placed by players on a table surface of the system. The system is further equipped with an electronic shoe which deals cards for the game and a processor with is operable to receive data both from the RFID antennas and the electronic shoe. Upon receiving data from an RFID antenna that a player has placed an initial wager based on initial odds and receiving data identifying some (but not all) cards dealt for a hand, the processor is operable to calculate adjusted odds for a re-characterization wager that would replace the initial wager, and output on a display of the system an offer for the re-characterization wager that corresponds to adjusted odds.

    摘要: An apparatus for receiving and sorting disks includes a wheel having at least one well for receiving a disk, a motor coupled to the wheel, a collecting device positioned relative to the wheel, a disk sensor, an ejector, and a controller. The collecting device has at least a first collector and a second collector configured for receiving disks. The disk sensor is configured to detect a value of a parameter of a disk received in the well and generate a parameter value signal. The ejector is coupled to the wheel proximate the well and configured to eject a disk from the well in a plane parallel to a bottom surface of the wheel in response to an eject signal. The controller is operably coupled with the disk sensor and the ejector.

    摘要: A method is described for producing a stored value token which may take a coin shape. A first portion of a die is mechanically roughened, prior to striking each of a plurality of metallic substrates into a substantially planar three-dimensional form having a first side and a second side. The mechanically roughened portion of the die strikes at least the second side of the substrates, wherein a corresponding first surface portion of the second side of the stamped substrates has a less reflective matte finish. A substantially transparent coat layer such as a lacquer is applied to at least the first surface portion, and an ink layer is applied atop the first layer in the first surface portion, thereby bonding the ink layer and the first coat and generating machine readable indicia unique to each respective one of the plurality of stamped substrates.

    摘要: Gaming chips 30 have an IC tag 34 which is embedded therein, and a special bar code 101 invisible to the naked eye, which is printed thereon. A server calculates the number of gaming chips 30 based on individual information of the IC tag 34 that was read out by a reader 38, based on individual information of the special bar codes 101 read out by a bar code scanner 102, based on weight data acquired at a weighing device 40 and based on image data processed in a camera 103. Further, the server checks a partial number or the total number of gaming chips 30 thus calculated, and outputs the check results from a display or speaker.

    摘要: A dimensionally stabilized token includes a rigid internal web structure for supporting molded external structures. The web may comprise material, such as metallic substances, selected to augment the overall weight of the token. The token further includes interlocking means, such as projections from a first molded portion, to dimensionally stabilize a second molded portion.

    摘要: A sorting device for the sorting of gaming chips comprises a base frame (36), a collection container (1), an oblique transport disc (3) adjoining the collection container (1), the oblique transport disk (3) separating and receiving gaming chips (27), a gaming chip characteristic identification system positioned adjacent the transport disc (3), a transfer device (11) distributing the gaming chips (27) in removal units (12) according to characteristics identified in the gaming chip characteristic identification system. The sorting device has a transport for transferring the gaming chips directly from the transport disc (3) to the removal units (12), and a radially external region of the transport disc (3) contains recesses (8) into which the gaming chips are separated. The sorting device is provided with at least one ejector (14) that can be inserted at least partially from one side of the transport disc (3) into the recesses (8) to lift an edge (15) of the gaming chips (27) above a front face of the transport disc (3) lying opposite the at least one ejector (14), whereby a blade (16) located on a removal unit (12) slides under the gaming chip (27) with a lifted edge, and the gaming chip (27) with a lifted edge is placed on the blade.
