Bally's technology deployed as Seminole Gaming properties become first casinos in Florida to offer Las Vegas-style table games

LAS VEGAS, July 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Bally Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: BYI), a leader in slots, video machines, casino management systems, and networked solutions for the global gaming industry, today announced that the Seminole Tribe of Florida will implement Bally's TableView table-rating and player-tracking system at its six casinos in south Florida.

Bally's award-winning TableView allows Seminole casino staff to enter player ratings, request chip fills and credits, and issue customer comps and markers in real time.

The groundbreaking Seminole Tribe of Florida has already implemented the system on 70 tables at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, with plans to ultimately offer TableView on more than 400 tables across six Seminole properties.

Bally's TableView technology, which recently was recognized by Casino Journal as one of the top two 'Most Innovative Gaming Technology Products of 2007,' will seamlessly integrate with the Seminole's high-speed, Ethernet Networked Floor of the Future, which already includes Bally's comprehensive casino management system, bonusing technology, and iVIEW(TM) interactive player-centric network.

'We did an extensive evaluation of TableView and other vendors' technology prior to making a commitment to Bally,' said Seminole Gaming Chief Operating Officer John James. 'Our users unanimously agreed that TableView is far more user-friendly and is based on solid, current technology. And TableView is a perfect complement to our existing operations because it fully integrates with our Bally casino management system, protecting and enhancing the investment in technology that we've already made.'

TableView will allow the Seminole Tribe to track table-game play in a paperless fashion and ensure that their table-game players get the same recognition and rewards as their slot players. The standalone application allows floor operations staff to use touch-screen devices to enter real-time player ratings, request chip fills and credits, open and close tables, issue player comps and markers, and change/roll the table shift.
