Benefits of technology

[0030] Individual player input systems (IPIS) are provided enabling players to place passive wagers on various different player positions at a live gaming table, particularly casino table cards games with physical cards and gaming systems that collect card, wager and other gaming data. The IPIS may be used to communicate with a gaming processor or central processor that registers combinations of some of wagers, the position of the wager, the position/account of the wager, the amount of the wagers,

Problems solved by technology

Interpreting the location and amounts of wagers can cause confusion, and cheaters take full advantage of the confusion.
Indeed, certain players, feeling unlucky or inexperienced at the game may prefer to bet only on a particular event to be received by at least one player during the course of the play of the underlying game.
The traditional physical wagering format would be unduly cumbersome if casin

Embodiment Construction

[0037] A casino table is provided for use by players in a casino. Standard wagering procedures are followed for any available game played between players or preferably with players against the house (such as, without limit, Blackjack, Blackjack variants, Three-Card Poker® games, Four-Card Poker™ games, Crazy Four Poker™ games, Let It Ride® poker, Caribbean Stud® poker, Pai Gow poker, 3-5-7 poker, and the like). The standard format of wagering and play of these casino table card games is minimally impacted by the practice of the technology. The underlying wagering by the active players at the table are done in a standard manner according to the format at the table. This includes physical placement of chips, player wager systems (touch pads, touch screens, buttons, key pad, token or coin inserts, proximity detectors, personal data entry systems, hardwired systems, wireless systems, and the like). Active players are those players playing the live game at the gaming table, while passive...

Abstract

A casino table card system and method is played on a casino card table having a playing surface. Multiple player positions on the casino card table have at least a first player position and second player position. A processor receives electronic game information comprising wager information relating to casino card games played on the casino card table. At least one player input capability from a passive player has wager input capability for placing wagers on the active player position. The wager information on the active player is electronically transmitted to the processor, which accepts input from the passive player position on an outcome at the active player position. The system resolves wagers from the passive player on events at an active player position.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to the filed of gaming systems, intelligent gaming systems, and intelligent gaming systems provided on casino tables and especially casino table card games with physical cards to implement play and wagering at the table or within a casino. [0003] 2. Background of the Art [0004] Casino wagering has always provided a basis for attempts at fraud. Interpreting the location and amounts of wagers can cause confusion, and cheaters take full advantage of the confusion. The majority of table games still use a wagering format that is hundreds of years old, with players placing wagers on their respective hands directly in front of themselves. The wagers have traditionally been placed by hand, sometimes on a marked area to better define a specific location for placing the wagers. [0005] When wagers other than the basic game wager on a player's hand are made, additional marked areas may be provided ...
