Patent number: 12002328Abstract: An electronic gaming system is capable of providing players with customized subsets of side bets. The system can provide, by the user interface, the player with a player-selectable set of side bets; receive, from the player through the user interface, a selection of a subset of the player-selectable set of side bets for the player to use in a gaming session, with a number of side bets in the subset selected by the player being less than a number of side bets in the player-selectable set of side bets; initiate the gaming session comprising a side bet placed on an enabled side bet; determine an outcome of the gaming session relative to the enabled side bet; and adjust a value of an electronic record associated with an account of the player to reflect the outcome of the gaming session.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2023Date of Patent: June 4, 2024Assignee: IGTInventors: Matteo Carli, Paul Baskerville, Donald Humphreys

Patent number: 11222510Abstract: A gaming system uses different gaming devices to provide players with multiple side bets arising from a side bet selected by a player or a side bet having multiple outcomes. In the former case, each potential outcome in a side wagering subset is associated with a different corresponding subset of the first and second sets of potential outcomes, and the first and second sets of potential outcomes are different. In the latter case, the gaming system applies rules that a first winning result in a set of winning results for a game satisfies the first outcome matching the selected potential outcome, a second winning result in the set of winning results for the game satisfies the second outcome matching the selected potential outcome; and a joint winning result in the set of winning results for the game includes each of the first and second outcomes matching the selected potential outcome.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2019Date of Patent: January 11, 2022Assignee: IGTInventor: Paul Baskerville

Patent number: 10413809Abstract: A portable system and method for identifying roulette wheel biases includes a frame member rotatably attachable to a roulette wheel proximate a turret support, a ball-drop tube slidably engaged to the frame member and a laser positioned to measure at least a bounce height of a roulette ball dropped through the ball-drop tube onto selective areas of the roulette wheel. One or more sensors may be positioned to trigger the laser responsive to a roulette ball being dropped through said ball-drop tube. Software analyzes the bounce height to determine dead spots and hot spots on the roulette wheel. Sound waves may also be measured to determine dead spots and hot spots.Type: GrantFiled: April 5, 2017Date of Patent: September 17, 2019Assignee: TCS John Huxley Europe Ltd.Inventors: Paul Baskerville, Shannon Nipp
