Saratoga Gaming and Raceway is First to Welcome Electronic Roulette

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y., Sept. 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Saratoga Gaming and Raceway, the first New York State Lottery property in New York State, is now also the first to offer electronic roulette.

The two new games come from IGT's M-P Series^™ multi-player suite and the Vegas Star series from Shuffle Master, Inc provided by GTECH / Spielo.

"Both electronic roulette games offer all of the excitement of the traditional casino game, but have been adapted for video gaming enjoyment," states Rita Cox, Saratoga Gaming and Raceway's Senior VP of Marketing and External Affairs. "Players still get the community play feel, but can also take comfort in the privacy that the ten separate terminals offer."

Both games feature ten separate easy-to-use touch-screen player stations and a large high-definition LCD game play screen that can be viewed by all players.

"While both are operationally very similar, one main difference is that IGT's M-P series game has a live wheel while Shuffle Master's machine features a high-definition screen that displays a virtual wheel," describes Saratoga Gaming and Raceway's Director of Video Gaming Machine Operations, Shawn Harris. "Functionally all wagers, odds and payouts are exactly the same as a regular roulette game."

Patrons are welcome to experience the new games for themselves seven days a week, from 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 a.m. For information on upcoming promotions and events, visit saratogagaming.com or call (800) 727-2990.
