Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If conventional baccarat rules are used with limited wagering options, then the game rules remain simple and easy to understand, but player interest decreases and casino profit is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The wagering system is segmented into two independent components: conventional baccarat wagering (Player, Banker, Tie) and separate jackpot wagering. Players can place bets on both the main game outcome and the jackpot side bet independently, allowing the casino to offer more wagering options without complicating the core game rules.
Solution Approach 2:
The betting table is designed to accommodate multiple functions simultaneously: it supports traditional baccarat wagering areas and additional jackpot wagering areas. The system universally handles both conventional bets and jackpot bets through a unified dealing and outcome determination process, increasing versatility without requiring separate game systems.
2Productivity
If jackpot wagering is added to baccarat, then player engagement and casino revenue increase, but the complexity of the game system increases
Solution Approach 1:
The jackpot wagering system is merged with the conventional baccarat game into a single integrated system. The same dealing process, shoe, and table are used for both the main game and the jackpot side bet. The outcome determination merges conventional card counting with zero-point card tracking, allowing the casino to increase revenue streams without requiring separate game equipment or procedures.
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically determines jackpot outcomes based on the cards dealt during normal play. The dealing process itself generates the data needed for both conventional and jackpot outcome determination, eliminating the need for additional manual tracking or separate game management, thus increasing revenue without proportional increases in operational complexity.
3Adaptability or versatility
If separate jackpot betting is allowed, then the variety of bets increases, but the simplicity of conventional baccarat is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The jackpot wagering is extracted as a separate, independent betting option from the conventional baccarat game. Players can choose to place only conventional bets, only jackpot bets, or both types of bets independently. This extraction allows the game to offer bet variety while maintaining the simplicity of the core conventional baccarat experience for players who prefer it.
Solution Approach 2:
Players are given the option to engage in partial action by placing only conventional bets or only jackpot bets, or excessive action by placing both types of bets. This flexibility allows players to choose their desired level of engagement and complexity, maintaining ease of operation for simple players while offering variety for those seeking more options.
