I can build such table, example each section of player have a touch screen. Use your credit to buy chip or pay cash at the dealer . You can place bet through tablet. All pay is instantly from computer. No chips on the table to hit your dices. House save money and maybe pass the saving to player in form of free buy on 4 and 10, 3x on 2 and 12 on field. Do you think the casino will buy my ideas ?
And it was a failure.

I think the member is just alerting you to the fact that automated wagering at live tables has been tried, and so far at least, not been a hit with players. I think I read that Bills Casino had one before being remodeled and opened as the "Cromwell".

It's going to seem slow at first, but with inexperienced dealers and players who don't have any manners and/or sense of gamesmanship you will have this "problem". Look at the bright side, at least once during your session you will be overpaid or have a loser left on the felt i.e. a hardway wager. To get away from it you have to go to the higher min. table, and even then, in Louisiana I don't know considering some of the food eaten there(bugs). Good luck!

If they are having to get fills, that means the players are winning! Tally ho away we go!
Casinos don't buy ideas, they buy products. You'll need to build your system in order to sell it. You'll also need to get a manufacturing license in every jurisdiction you want to sell into, source the hardware, hire an engineering team, etc. If you're serious at all about this, you'll need to have several million dollars in funding to even think about getting started. Selling electronic gaming machines is not a $5,000 startup. It will cost you over $50,000 in regulatory fees alone before you're even able to offer your machine for sale to anyone, and more than $250,000 if you want to address enough of the market to matter. For example, if you want to become licensed in Nevada, you must submit to the NGCB's investigation. And you have to pay for their costs -- that means the hourly rate of the agents that are investigating your background and suitability to conduct business in the state.Quote: ideas2productThe only thing that i hate about craps is that it take too long to place bets and pay bets. Sometime there are mistakes especially when there is a full table. Mistakes mean argument. Wouldn't that be nice to have craps table only need 1 or 2 dealers to run. The payout and place bet handle by computer. You still throw the dices as usual.

If you can pull that off and the product is successful, there's a good chance you'll be acquired. The industry has gone through a lot of consolidation recently. But past versions of electronic craps games have not been successful until recently with the intro of Interblock's Organic system and Aruze's Shoot To Win.
Here's my advice: If you didn't know any of the above, you should pick a different venture.
Yes.Quote: ideas2productSo rapids craps is not fully automation if they still have to refill with chips.
To do otherwise would have classified it as a slot machine rather than a table game.
And that would mean different tax issues.
when I played this Rapid Craps at Bill's Casino (a couple times only)Quote: ideas2productI just look up at youtube, i see 2 problems. First, i see that they still refill the chips. Second, only one dealer running the table. They should have 2 dealers.
most times when busy they did have 2 dealers
one handling the dice,
cash ins and cash outs (the terminals had TITO but i never heard it was used and never saw it used, players tried to use it but were told you had to give your chips or cash to the dealer for them to input)
and the computer input of the dice roll
and the other helping out the players with questions on how to do this or that
and general helping
the only thing Rapid about the game was the payoffs and sometimes it was too fast for multiple bets
when the table was full and it was a lot at night
the dice moved very slowly because of so many questions being asked and time to help a player make and/or understand a bet
sometimes it was fun to play
other times not so much fun for players and dealer(s)
