Real Time Gaming (RTG)

Atlanta, GA – November, 2003

RealTime Gaming announces new version 2.7 release, with addition of anticipated multi-player poker game platform.

Online Casino software developer RealTime Gaming announced today the roll out of the latest version of their popular online casino software platform – complete with a brand new multi-player poker suite.

Version 2.7 is RealTime’s 13 release update in the last two years – outpacing all other major casino software developers.

“We k now that the key to this business is innovation, and we are always working to stay a step ahead of the competition,” says Michael Staw, President of RealTime Gaming. “In the software business you have to keep moving – always refining, adapting and introducing the next best thing – this time around, that ‘thing’ is multi-player poker.”


Poker Push

Truly the “star” of the new release, the multi-player poker platform opens whole new gaming avenue for RTG licensees. Capitalizing on the widespread popularity of poker-style games, RealTime’s suite integrates a slew of games – 6 total – that draw from cultural influences from around the globe. Games range from western classics like Texas Hold “Em and Seven Card Stud to the exotic Far Eastern influence in such games as Pan and Chinese Poker.

Games aside, RTG licensees are particularly excited with the new multi-player possibilities poker brings to the platform. To date, most RTG games were based on traditional casino games, with a player-versus- the-house model. With multi-player poker, operators can connect players within a single casino or across a multi-casino network and enable head-to-head game play in a real time environment.

“The popularity of poker is huge, but the key is getting players together – unlike other casino games, poker is very much a social game,” explains Fermin Barrios of Cyberbetting International. “With the new Multi-player platform from RealTime Gaming, our players can get together and play each other – they can have their own ‘poker night’ online, so to speak.”

While the player-to-player interaction is key, another advantage is the integration of poker into the already established casino platform. Multi-player action works off the same account information as the rest of the casino platform, so established players don’t have to change a thing. Players can just select multi-player poker as a game within their home casino without ever having to deal with new log-in names or accounts.

“The goal was to create software that integrated both types of games, casino style games and head-to-head multi-player games, in one package,” says Staw. “We think of it just like a real casino, you can get up from a blackjack table and sit down at a poker table. It’s a totally different game and a totally different experience, but you never have to leave the casino to change your game.”

What else is new?

Multi-Player Poker isn’t the only new addition to the RealTime Platform, the 2.7 also sees the introduction of two new slot games and the introduction of multi-hand video poker to the mix. The slot additions – Super Diamond Mine and High Rollers - bring the total number of RealTime slot games to 17, making their slots offering one of the deepest and most diverse in the business. The multi-hand poker feature is actually an add-on to most of the existing video poker games, adding another level of play to proven favorites.

On the Horizon..

As usual, RealTime Gaming executives are protective when it comes to details of the next release, but if the past two years are any indicator, version 2.8 can’t be far behind. Though specifics are unknown, Staw is quick to point out the RealTime track record. “Innovation is one of the cornerstones of our business, so you can bet we’ll keep moving at the same pace. You never have to wait too long to see what’s next when it comes from us.”

BoDog.com bites off a bigger, better casino offering with RealTime Gaming

ATLANTA, GA – Online gaming company BoDog.com plans today to expand its online casino offering by incorporating the RealTime Gaming online gaming platform. As one of the world’s largest online sports books, BoDog.com hopes to bolster the casino side of its online gaming operation with the inclusion of the RealTime suite of casino-style games.

"A majority of our Sportsbook players are also Casino players," said Rob Gillespie, President of BoDog.com.com Sportsbook and Casino. "With the new Casino we will be able to offer players the most advanced technology, and gaming experience."

Michael Staw, RealTime Gaming President agreed: “When you run a world class sports gaming site, it only makes sense to expand and offer your players the total package. Our suite of games is unmatched for variety and playability and will be a perfect compliment to the BoDog.com offering.”

As an online sportsbook, BoDog.com is among the largest and most established in the industry, having processed over 150 million transactions to date. In addition to sports gaming, BoDog.com also currently offers a suite of Flash-based casino games including blackjack, craps, Caribbean poker and roulette. Once up and running, the RealTime platform will bring over 60 different games to BoDog.com players.

“Their game variety is unbeatable. There’s something for everyone, and I can’t wait to see player response,” said Gillespie.

According to BoDog.com management, the decision to develop a more robust casino offering was largely player driven. Many BoDog.com users wanted a way to play within their sports book account, and wanted a larger variety of the most popular Las Vegas Casino games.

“We knew that our games would be a hit with their player base, and we know how to plug it all in from a back-end standpoint. It really has been a pretty smooth process,” says Staw.

The marriage between RealTime and BoDog.com is significant for both companies. For BoDog.com it marks the first time they have ventured outside their own walls for the development of a player-facing software product. For RealTime, BoDog.com represents a major win – another big-name player in the gaming marketplace that has selected RealTime Gaming as their casino gaming platform.

Both management teams are excited at the possibilities. “We’re looking forward to bringing something this big to our players…it really completes our site as a one-stop gaming center,” says Gillespie. Staw added, “We’ve got a great software product and they have a great gaming operation – it’s a perfect match.”

King Solomons Casino switches to RealTime Gaming software platform

But perhaps the biggest change in King Solomons history happened this winter with the decision to switch software platforms. Announced in March of this year, King Solomons now has steps underway to migrate all of its players to the RealTime gaming platform.

According to Solomons Marketing Director Dominic Mansour the decision to change platforms was a question of business focus – making a clear choice between casino management and software development. “We know our players, we know the gaming industry, and we know how to market ourselves effectively. But we felt it was time we worked with an outside group for software development. We needed a separate team to focus specifically on the software side of the business.”

The change for players will be noticeable, but shouldn’t disrupt current styles or tendencies. On the contrary, the comprehensive suite of RealTime games should expand player choices, with more than 45 game titles in a variety of categories, including multi-player poker and bingo.

The decision to choose RealTime was “an easy one” says Mansour. “They understand who we are and what we need. Their games meet our immediate needs, and their philosophy matches ours – the players come first. Developing software is all they do, so they can really focus on the games and the back-end, instead of trying to run their own casinos. They are as serious about this business as we are.”

RealTime Gaming “Raises the Roof” at GIGSE show in Toronto

TORONTO, CANADA – In her years as tradeshow coordinator for St. Louis based River City Group, Dawn Kirkwood has seen a lot of tradeshow booths. Even so, she admits she was “more than impressed” by the RealTime Gaming booth at this year’s Global Interactive Gaming Show and Exhibition.

If first impressions mean a lot, then RealTime Gaming’s two story design did not fail to impress. The first two-story booth in GIGSE’s show history, the RealTime Gaming edifice generated a lot of buzz on the show floor.

“I had reviewed the plans, and I knew what to expect, but still, it was great to see the design come to life. The energy of the people in and around the booth, the graphics, the electronics – it really was an exceptional booth to experience,” said Kirkwood.

But according to RealTime Gaming personnel, the booth was designed for function first. “The design was less about impact, and more about practicality – we needed a private conference room for our back-end demos, and we didn’t want to close in half of the booth and lose all that space. So a rooftop deck seemed natural,” explains Daniel Schultz, Vice-President for RealTime Gaming. “The fact that it was so eye-catching was a real bonus.”

Once atop the open-air deck, RealTime guests were treated to a panoramic view of the entire show, and “VIP treatment” that included a complimentary bar and masseuse. “Our theme this year was to ‘Relax with RealTime Gaming’ – when you’re high above the hectic show floor with drink in hand and a masseuse working on your shoulders, its hard not to relax,” explains Schultz.

As it turns out, unique attractions were not limited to the roof. In addition to the game displays and kiosks, RealTime personnel and guests could also be found zipping along the show floor on two Segway personal transporters. And beyond the show floor, some conventioneers were lucky enough to score invites to an evening of sketch comedy at the world-famous Second-City Theater, hosted by RealTime Gaming.

“I think this was our best show yet…we made a lot of new contacts, and had the opportunity to share our two passions, entertainment and technology,” explains Schultz. “It’s a great event, and this year we had a great showing. It all just came together perfectly.”
