Abstract

This specification discloses gaming systems and methods involving the use of chip-cards functioning as electronic purses for the payment and collection of betting losses and wins. The cards are used in player stations requiring validation via biometric identification. In one system (100), three player stations (102) are interconnected by a secure telecommunications channel to a croupier station (104) in a casino (105). Each player station (102) requires the insertion of a player's chip card (106) in a card reader and concomitant biometric identification to activate the station. The croupier station (104) also requires the use of a chip card (108). Each player station (102) is computer-based with normal input and display devices. Each player station (102) includes a secure register (110) and the croupier station also includes a secure register (112). Each bet placed by a player is electronically transferred within the player station (102) from the purse in the player's card (106) to the respective register (110). At the completion of the betting round, the bets are transferred by the croupier to the croupier register (112) and the croupier distributes the wins to appropriate player registers (110) according to the outcome of the round. In another aspect, the player cards can be endorsed by a government authority to limit betting.
