The decision by the Casino Palace in Bucharest follows a closely monitored trial which saw Ardac Elite retrofitted to several of the casino's slots.

The results of the trial echo those in other casinos in Romania, with first-time acceptance rates of over 98% for street-grade bills. And this despite the peculiarities of Romanian bills: being made of polymer and with features such as transparent windows.

Casino Palace, the most luxurious casino in Bucharest, is...]]> 2009-03-17 13:44:34 http://www.moneycontrols.com/news/view/21/1 http://www.moneycontrols.com/news/view/20/1 As further indication of its increasing success in the Eastern European gaming market, Money Controls has strengthened its customer support following the signing of an agreement with Bucharest-based DGL Pro.

Background

The Red Earth Casino in California's Coachella Valley is just that: a casino and nothing more, no restaurant, no rooms. Add to this its location: a quiet highway by the Salton Sea; hardly the center of the gaming world. Yet, ever since it opened just over a year ago, the 13,000-square-foot casino, owned by the Torres Martinez Desert Cahuilla Indians, has been a resounding success, drawing over 1000 players each day. And if you step inside, you'll understand why.

Everything at Red Earth is geared to maximizing the players' experience and at the same time maximizing revenue.

Background
Oroville in Butte County, N. California, has the nickname 'The City of Gold', its name being a combination of 'oro', the Spanish word for gold, and 'ville', which is French for town. And it's an appropriate name, for it was at the heart of the California gold rush in the mid-1800s, when it was home to thousands of prospectors. Then, as in other mining towns, Oroville had gambling houses catering to those miners who struck gold. Now, the wheel has turned full-circle as Oroville plays host to two large casinos, the Feather Falls and the Gold Country Casino &...]]> 2008-12-10 15:41:03 http://www.moneycontrols.com/casestudies/1 http://www.moneycontrols.com/events/37
