Definitions

  • the invention relates to a gaming machine, and in particular to a gaming machine using dice.
  • Dice games are popular in casinos, and machines for playing such games exist, which may be used in casinos or amusement arcades.
  • machines are electronic machines with a video display displaying the dice after every roll.
  • the result of each roll is generally determined using some form of pseudo-random number detector in software.
  • such electronic machines do not have the full confidence of consumers who may assume that the software can control the dice even when the dice are in fact randomly controlled.
  • US 6,402,141 describes an automatic dice game machine using real dice.
  • a die thrower includes an elevator for bringing the dice to the top of a slope and ejecting them onto the slope. The dice tumble down a slope before coming to a standstill on a horizontal surface.
  • a number of antennae are provided under the circuit for reading information provided in "code marks with digital information" embedded in the dice.
  • RFID radio frequency inductive device
  • a gaming machine comprising: dice, the dice including a pattern of magnets in each face, the patterns of magnets on each face being distinct from one another even when rotated; a substantially horizontal bed; a launcher adjacent to the bed for projecting the dice through the air onto the substantially horizontal bed; reading means for reading the dice, the reading means comprising a plurality of sensors arranged on a bar across the bed, the bar being moveable along the bed to scan the dice on the bed; and collection means for sweeping the dice off the bed onto the launch means.
  • the inventors have realised that it is not necessary to roll a dice down an incline with geometric features to achieve a random dice roll. Instead, by launching the dice through the air laterally onto a game bed next to the launcher, a visually appealing throw which provides excellent randomisation is provided. It is easy for the player to see that the dice have not been manipulated by the machine.
  • the dice include a pattern of magnets in each face, the patterns of magnets on each face being distinct from one another even when rotated; and the reading means comprises a plurality of sensors arranged on a bar across the bed, the bar being moveable along the bed to scan the dice on the bed. In this way the dice may be reliably read regardless of the position in which they land.
  • the launcher may include a hinged plate hinged to the edge of the bed and a border plate around the edges of the hinged plate, the launcher having a rest position in which the hinged plate extends downwards from the bed to allow the dice to rest on the hinged plate against the border plate and being actuatable to rotate the hinged plate around the hinge to project the dice onto the bed.
  • the gaming machine may have actuatable side panels bordering the bed, the actuatable side panels having a rest position and being actuatable to move to a actuated position to allow dice resting against the side panel and not being flat on the bed to fall flat on the bed. In this way, if a die lands cocked against the side panels so that it cannot be read the actuatable side panels can be actuated to cause the die to fall flat on the surface avoiding ambiguity.
  • the gaming machine may include a sensor for detecting vibration of the bed. The sensor may be used for detecting when the bed has ceased vibration and accordingly when reading of the dice may commence.
  • a bet placement unit for placing bets wherein the bet placing unit is arranged to offer abet of offering true odds of at least 50-1 and further to offer a bonus bet on favourable odds to the user if the bet offering true odds of at least 50-1 is staked and won. m this way the user may be offered fair odds even for long odds bets even in the event that guaranteeing large payouts is difficult for legal or operational reasons.
  • the bet offering true odds of at least 50- 1 is a bet on any specific three of a kind and the bonus bet is a bet paying out at odds of over 10-1 and having a probability of success of at least 20%.
  • the gaming machine may " further include a camera to record the dice on the bed. In this way, there can be two wholly independent means to record how the dice land which can be particularly important if the gaming machine is used for high- value stakes, for example in a casino.
  • the invention in another aspect, relates to a gaming machine having a means for throwing a plurality of dice and reading the result, further comprising a bet placement unit for placing bets, wherein the bet placing unit is arranged to offer a bet of offering true odds of at least 50-1 and further to offer a bonus bet on favourable odds to the user if the bet offering true odds of at least 50-1 is staked and won.
  • a gaming machine comprising: dice; a substantially horizontal bed; a launcher adjacent to the bed for projecting the dice through the air onto the substantially horizontal bed; reading means for reading the dice; and collection means for sweeping the dice off the bed onto the launch means.

  • a die 10 has a plurality of faces and is of injection molded plastics. Seven holes 12 are moulded into each face of the die to accept magnets 14.
  • Some of the holes are filled with magnets and others are filled with non-magnetic dummies 16 to balance the die.
  • Stickers 18 are provided on each face, each printed with an image 20 of spots to indicate the face of the dice.
  • the die 10 is a cube of side 70mm with rounded corners, and the magnets 14 are of neodymium iron and 4mm diameter by 6mm thick. These magnets produce 2000 gauss at 1.6mm. The skilled person will appreciate that different sizes of die and magnets may be used as appropriate in individual cases.
  • the pattern is different on each face as indicated in Figure 2 which shows the patterns on each face using a filled circle to indicate a magnet 14 and an open circle to indicate a dummy 16.
  • the patterns are chosen so that they are distinguishable even if the die orientation is not known.
  • the indicated patterns give particularly accurate results.
  • a gaming machine using three such dice 10 is illustrated in Figure 3.

  • it may be possible to reduce the payout but paying out too little on a bet may also be against the gaming laws in certain territories, and in any event reducing the payout is unlikely to attract users.
  • the gaming machine may be arranged to offer a special bet on favourable terms for the user in the event that a three of a kind is won, together with a reduced payout.
  • the bet offered is a bet to win a bonus if the value of the next throw of three dice is 8 or less, 9 to 12, or 13 or more.
