Interblock installs first Touchdown Roulette in Atlantic City

The side bet could be made before the Roulette spin except for when a Touchdown Roulette game is already in progress. A result of “0” or “00” triggers the Touchdown Roulette game and all other outcomes result in a loss for the side bet. 

Once triggered, the player is prompted to choose the “Red” or the “Black” team. A team will be randomly assigned to players who fail to select a team in the designated time. The object is for the selected team to score a touchdown and each game lasts four spins. After each of the four spins, the football will move along the football field and the location of the football at the end of the four spins determines the winning team and the payout. 

Danny Ouellette, Director of Sales, had this to say about the installation; “The first installation of Touchdown Roulette at Borgata is an exciting one for us as this launches a great bonus feature that the customers as well as operators are sure to love.”

“We are thrilled to be the first property to add Touchdown Roulette to its gaming floor,” said Borgata Vice President of Slot Operations, Tim Burke. “Borgata is consistently at the forefront of new and innovative initiatives and, through working alongside Interblock and the Division of Gaming Enforcement; we are pleased to offer our customers yet another new and creative gaming feature.” 

In the past, Atlantic City casinos and patrons would have to wait for regulatory approval while other gaming markets offered the newest and most exciting games. Under the New Jersey First provision offered by the Division of Gaming Enforcement, products submitted to New Jersey before any other jurisdiction get priority status and are tested within 14 days from submission. "It is great to see that our efforts to improve the regulatory process are working,” said Division of Gaming Enforcement Director David Rebuck.  "Today, Atlantic City is the first jurisdiction world-wide to offer Touchdown Roulette." 

The Slot Laboratory, which is internationally recognized for its technical expertise, has long been regarded as a leader in gaming regulation. The Laboratory tests and inspects all electronic gaming equipment before it can be used on the casino floor. "The Division of Gaming Enforcement's slot lab personnel have been very impressive during the approval process" said Ouellette. "They have evaluated our product and their approval demonstrates that it meets very strict standards for integrity and fairness".
