Mount Airy Casino Resort to Add Virtual Roulette Machine

Mount Airy Casino Resort among first in the state to debut the new electronic table game; Virtual table games such as poker and blackjack are among the resort’s most popular machines

PARADISE, Pa., March 3 /PRNewswire/ — Mount Airy Casino Resort announced today that it will add a new, virtual roulette table to its mix of more than 2,500 of the latest slot machines that includes video slots, progressive jackpots, and electronic table games such as poker and blackjack.

The Vegas Star Roulette plays like a traditional roulette table game except that the results are generated by a random number generator rather than the spinning of a physical wheel. The game can accommodate up to eight players seated in an oval around a two-sided plasma display showing a virtual dealer and roulette wheel. Individual bets are placed via a touch screen at the eight individual seating stations, increasing the comfort level of guests and avoiding the need to lean and stretch across a table to place chips. The odds of winning are the same as a traditional roulette table although virtual roulette is a slot machine.

“We are constantly updating and evaluating our mix to provide our guests with variety and access to the latest, most popular slot machines,” said Joe D’Amato, Chief Executive Officer of Mount Airy Casino Resort, who noted that the casino resort is currently the exclusive Pennsylvania home of Reel Money Slots and Tower of Power machines, two of the industry’s newest and most popular games. “Providing the highest quality gaming experience for our guests is our top priority. Offering the hottest new games, like Vegas Star Roulette, sets us apart from the competition.”

The machine will be placed in the non-smoking section of the casino floor along with the resort’s non-smoking blackjack games. Player wagers will start at $1 and betting options will be the same as a live table game. The casino, just the second casino in the state to install the Vegas Star Roulette slot machine, intends to monitor the machine’s popularity to help it determine if it should add more virtual roulette tables in the future.

Vegas Star Roulette is manufactured by Shuffle Master, which also makes the virtual blackjack and virtual three card poker games that are popular with Mount Airy Casino Resort guests.
