Review G2E LAS VEGAS 2016
Business as usual for progressive thinking
DEQ at Vegas show Despite being in the midst of a takeover by Scientific Games, it was business as usual on the stand of DEQ, and that meant new table progressives, side bets and propriety games
Double Denom and Table AMP were DEQ’s big new table progressive releases for the G2E show, alongside Proprietary Table Games such as Charlie 21 and Tiger Split. Double Denom and Table AMP are both powered by the PRSM Progressive System.
Te Table Amp system uses a secondary random number generator to generate a result at the coin spot of each player position. Te result is displayed in a colour relating to the level of the jackpot being played for and allows the operator to control the probability of each colour. Golden Tie – Baccarat Progressive is a tie-based baccarat progressive that generates one unique jackpot winner when a six card tie is dealt, with three banker cards and three players cards.
Other progressive products powered by the PRSM Progressive System include Pai Gow Poker Progressive, Hands Up 21 & Blackjack Deuces - Blackjack Progressives and 3,4,5 & 6 Card Hand Bonus Progressives.
