Benefits of technology

[0012]In some embodiments, the game and wagering assistant system may provide probability information, statistics, or mathematical progression wagering analysis for a particular game or wagering event. For example, this information may be used to determine game play and wagers during the course of a series of rounds of a particular casino game in order to minimize the casino advantage, minimize player losses, or maximize “comps” (complimentary goods or services given by the casino to a player). The user may access this information on a screen of the game and wagering assistant system. Alternatively, the information may be provided to the user in an audible format (e.g., synthesized voice instructions to a user from a speaker, a set of headphones, or an earphone). Any other suitable system or device may be used to access the information and / or communicate the information to the user.

Problems solved by technology

During the course of playing a casino game, a player may have difficulty making decisions that minimize the advantage of the casino or game provider, minimize losses, or maximize gains.

Abstract

Systems and methods for assisting game play and wagering are provided. A game assistant system may provide a user with advice on game play or wagering for casino games such as blackjack, roulette, poker, craps, slots, or baccarat. The game assistant may also provide a user with advice on wagering events (e.g., horse racing, etc.) or on other games (e.g., backgammon, chess, etc.).
