Strategy9 Has Deal With Bally

Ready for a slots tournament? Well, so is Bally and Strategy9. The two companies have teamed up together to debut Bally’s Tournamaker slots tournament system. The two companies have joined forces to bring players an entirely new way of playing slots that they are not soon to forget.

The new slots tournament system will be unveiled at this year’s Global Gaming Expo at the Las Vegas Convention Center. The product is called the Tournamaker™ and is built on the STMS platform from Strategy9. Bally’s is already well known for their slots and online slots, so it should come as no surprise to anyone that they would be looking for ways to push the envelope.

The way the new technology works is that players will play the regular Gamemaker® HD™ slots, but they will turn into tournament slots on demand, but will do so without the help on any slots technicians. So you can play for a longer period of time, with the ability to effortlessly and quickly move to slots tournament mode. Instead of needing several casino employees to run a 200 player tournament, the casinos need but one or two.

Even the scoring of the slots tournaments has gotten easier. The slot machines will record the scores instead of a technician. The machines will handle enrollment, registration, leader board, etc. all on their own. Employees had better be careful, these games are so amazing on their own that they might be out of a job.
