INTERBLOCK and ELDORADO RESORTS, INC. announce a revolutionary approach to table games
Luxury gaming manufacturer and electronic table game (ETG) market leader, Interblock, announced today their partnership with Eldorado Resorts, Inc. Circus Circus Reno and Silver Legacy Resort Casino will be amongst the first of over 20 Eldorado properties to install the new electronic products which will attract existing and new players alike to the next generation of gaming. Circus Circus Reno will become the first casino in North America to replace all of their live tables with an Electronic Table Pit.
John Connelly, Chief Executive Officer of Interblock, said, “The ability to demonstrate the operational efficiencies Electronic Table Games can offer, combined with its revenue generating capabilities, is only possible with the willingness to innovate. Eldorado is one of the first operators in North America to embrace this concept and completely automate one of their casino floors through Electronic Table Games. Interblock will continue to invest heavily in supporting Eldorado’s innovation.”
Utilizing technology, Eldorado is quickly automating their casinos to offer various forms of Electronic Tables Games to reduce operating expenses and drive higher handle/hold across their operations. The extent of this effort ranges from Live Stadiums, Automated Electronic Table Game Pits and Standalone products; each designed to cater to a different demographic, yet achieving the same financial results.
Anthony Carano, President and Chief Operating Officer at Eldorado Resorts, said, “We are proud to partner with Interblock as we continue to focus on innovative ways to provide our guests with dynamic, first-to-market games and continue to deliver the unbelievable experience they have come to expect from Eldorado Resorts.”
The implementation of Electronic Table Game Stadiums, combined with Standalone products, has taken an array of shapes, depending on the casino. For example, Circus Circus Reno has introduced electronic table games across the entire casino floor, while other casinos have complimented their traditional table game offering with ETGs. The flexibility of Interblock to transition between Live Electronic Table Game environments, and then migrate to a strictly automated format in non-peak hours, is an example of how technology can be used to transform the way we look at table games. This, combined with the largest product portfolio in this sector, ensures all forms of table games can be met.
Just some of the products being offered by Eldorado Resorts in an Electronic format are Blackjack, Roulette, Craps, and Baccarat in both a Live and Automated format.

This expansion will include the latest slots, electronic and traditional table games, as well as a dedicated high-limit gaming area for discerning players seeking a more exclusive gaming experience.
