Poker Table rail display!!! I want it! (1 Viewer)

[stumc51]

Hi All,

Watching a recent youtube video on poker go. It was the Monkey Tilt tournament where DNegs is on the FT, I saw something i think is amazing!

Along the rail where we would normally have a diffuser for LED's etc, thy had long thin displays running through a series of animations etc.

Had anyone ever seen these, and if so where did they get them from as they look awesome.

Curious if it’s actually on the table or generated with TV magic like they do with ads behind the plate in baseball, etc. now.

It looks like screens, in a similar vain to the images around a football / soccer pitch

I get what you’re saying, but they make extremely realistic looking stuff these days in tv broadcasts of sports…check out the two pictures here:

Not saying that’s what this is…just curious if it is!

Not a fan of the ever changing led add boards they use in any sports event, and IMO, even less on a poker table diffuser.

Alibaba vendor in Shenzhen China offers these but theyre much larger. I woder if Tina can source out some 2" tall versions:

You could do away with dealer buttons...just have some graphics flash in front of the player whose turn it is to deal.

The base technology behind this has been around forever, but the resolution has just gotten better and better over time with programmable LED and such. Personally I don't like this kind of flash around a poker table (I'm an analog type of guy) but I can see how it can be very practical in tourney play by displaying blinds, round timer, etc.

This making me want to build another table now!

I started seeing these last year. I told @RocAFella1 my next table is gonna have this so that the current blinds & all other important tournament info will be slowly ticking around. His reply was "sports scores too?" (Cash games Chris. Cash games!!!)

Running blind levels on here would be cool. Maybe roll through current blind level, last elimination, average stack, payouts, level time and other tournament relevant info.

We have recently found a vendor on the german equivalent to craigslist, who sells tables with this feature

Combine this with RFID cards and you can Postle the shit out of everyone with no phone!

I saw several vendors selling displays like this at the Global Gaming Expo last fall. I've been thinking of when we would build a table with those built it. Would be fantastic for dealer choice games to display what game is being played, as well as showing blinds and advertising for revenue.

 

[stumc51]

Now I just need to find them and then build something! Or ask you lol T_Chan!

Plus as well, I wonder how difficult it would be to programme the multiple displays! hmm

 

[Jake14mw]

The strip would of course be best, but I would even be happy with multiple 2" tall tablets or something like that. Experimented years ago with using small android cell phones.

Another "interesting" idea is a downward pointing microprojector mounted on the ceiling and projecting right on the felt.

They use this technique on all the fancy digital roulette tables. Indicates all winning bets in real time, too.

Impressive tech, but this seems like an unnecessary distraction to me.

 

[Rakrul]

I don't even like raised rail, LED lights or all that jazz.

Ooohhh... has anyone done this? There are a bunch of mini projectors under $100. I'm sure most of them suck, but you don't need a great quality projector to project 3-4 feet onto a poker table.

You would need quite the set up to have all this information prohected in real time unless you were just projecting time/blinds/payouts & avg chip stack... someone would still have to be inputting the info on the go

That is grade-A fuckin' cool man!

So you'd still need a power supply and a signal source though... would they connect to a laptop or something via HDMI?
