Interblock to Exhibit Ground-Breaking Technology at IGA 2023

Interblock, award-winning ETG developer, will present the future of table games in Booth #1127 at the 2023 Indian Gaming Tradeshow & Convention (IGA) on March 29th and 30th.
Recognized as the largest gathering of tribal leaders and casino executives in the country, IGA provides gaming companies and professionals a stage to showcase innovative products, meet industry leaders and witness cutting-edge trends at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego, California. Interblock will demonstrate new forms of technology designed to raise casinos to the top of the competitive gaming industry landscape at IGA 2023.
“IGA provides our team the opportunity to meet with some of the most impactful operators in North America and collect feedback in real-time, which is vital for our continued success,” the Global Chief Executive Officer for Interblock, John Connelly, said. “At IGA, we will introduce upgrades to virtually all our existing products and display dozens of new products, features and functionalities.”
Interblock’s novel craps games, Pick2Win Craps and Live Craps, will be featured among Interblock’s exciting product suite at IGA. With three distinctly-colored cylinders to choose from, a Pick2Win Craps player chooses which two, out of three, dice will ultimately determine the result of each roll. Available as a traditional ‘community’ game of craps with one designated shooter or ‘individually’ in which each player selects their own dice, Pick2Win Craps can be played in as a standalone game or in a stadium configuration.
Due to the authenticity of the product and ease of dealing the game, Interblock’s Live Craps at IGA is guaranteed to intrigue spectators. Having effectively reinvented and improved the live craps experience, Interblock’s Live Craps requires only a single dealer dealing to an unlimited number of players in an electrifying and engaging stadium environment. The dealer invites one player to step up to the traditional craps table to shoot the dice while the other players cheer and root for big wins. Fully automated payouts and dice tracking technology greatly enhance the security of the game while creating a unique gaming experience. Interblock projects its booth featuring innovative products and a meticulously crafted layout will incite customer enthusiasm at IGA 2023.
“I am looking forward to spending my first year at IGA with Interblock,” the Trade Show Manager for Interblock, Cathryn Winnik, said. “Our team has worked diligently to create an environment on the show floor that provides the best experience for our current and future customers.
“We will be showcasing an impressive product mix that highlights Interblock’s innovation and how our technology can make our partners more efficient and profitable. Customers will have an opportunity to meet with our team and learn how Interblock is the ‘Future of Electronic Table Games’ and the positive impact our new developments will have on their business. The products we will be displaying include existing games with new features and betting options along with our latest offerings. I believe attendees will be impressed by our Diamond Dual Bonus Wheel Roulette; it is a true display of our innovation as there is nothing else like it in the market. One of the many compelling features is that it creates a community environment while playing roulette. We are excited to be able to meet with attendees in San Diego as our in-person demonstrations will be extremely impactful.”
Interblock’s new, award-winning standalone product, Bonus Wheel Roulette, has remained a customer-favorite since its debut in October of 2022 and will be on full display at IGA 2023. The dual wheel bonus system incorporates the thrill of playing traditional roulette with the opportunity for players to win payouts up to 250-to-one. When players wager on any of the four bonus gems and the ball lands in the selected bonus gem pocket on the main wheel, a secondary bonus wheel spins to determine the amount of the bonus payout rewarded to players with multipliers up to 250 times. With the bonus round occurring approximately one in every ten spins and payouts more than seven times higher than that of a traditional roulette wheel, industry experts agree that Interblock developers successfully produced an elevated game for roulette players to enjoy and operators to drive revenue.
“IGA 2023 provides Interblock the opportunity to meet with and demonstrate our commitment to our Native Indian gaming partners,” Vice-President for Interblock’s United States Sales Team, said Peter Herem, said. “Native Indian gaming is critical to Interblock’s success and we look forward to bringing our latest developments and innovations to IGA 2023 including our latest Live ETG pit technology. Interblock’s innovation continues provide the opportunity for our Native Indiana gaming partners to run more efficiently and optimize their profitability across their entire gaming floor.”
Interblock hopes its presentation of new technologies at IGA 2023 will influence the North American gaming industry, promoting an expansion of knowledge and comfortability with advancements. While continuing to revolutionize the land industry with product categories that attract players and extend play, the company plans to further expand into the online gaming sector. Aiming to be in a meaningful place in the online space by the end of the year with signed contracts alongside leading online companies, Interblock intends to build upon its strong player recognition, innovation and experience to create a unique niche for operators in this space. No matter the form, the company’s goal is to make Interblock synonymous with table games.

Major Casino Operators Ready to Invest if Georgia Lifts Casino Ban

As discussions about legalizing gambling in Georgia gain momentum, major casino operators like Wynn Resorts and Boyd Gaming are poised to lead the charge if the state changes its restrictive laws.
During a recent Georgia House study committee meeting, Christopher Gordon, president of Wynn Resorts’ development arm, expressed keen interest in building a multibillion-dollar casino should legal barriers be removed. Similarly, Boyd Gaming’s government affairs vice president Ryan Soultz highlighted Georgia’s market attractiveness.
Wynn’s model would be similar to its $2.6 billion Encore Boston Harbor, suggesting that a new Georgia casino could employ up to 4000 workers and contribute substantial gaming tax revenue.
Although specific locations have not been chosen, both companies have indicated they would need constitutional changes to move forward. Their willingness to invest heavily in the Peach State demonstrates a strong belief in the untapped potential of the state’s gambling market.
Such developments offer a compelling argument for lawmakers to consider gambling expansion, marking a shift toward economic incentives as a primary motivator for legislative change.
Should Georgia proceed with legalizing casino gambling, the legislative language will be crucial in shaping the industry’s landscape. Key proposals may include requiring casino companies to invest at least $1.2 billion per resort and generate a minimum number of jobs, often set at around 10,000 per license. This ensures that any developments bring tangible benefits to the local economy.
Additional legislative demands include rigorous background checks for key personnel, proven industry experience, and adherence to strict technical and financial standards. Only companies with substantial capital and robust infrastructure, like Wynn Resorts and Boyd Gaming, are likely to meet these stringent requirements.
