All gaming tables at Singapore’s Marina Bay Sands will be fitted out with a comprehensive smart table solution by the end of 2025, part of the company’s plans to ensure long-term growth.
MBS parent firm Las Vegas Sands provided the update as part of a detailed investor presentation released overnight which outlined the Singapore IR’s refreshment and expansion plans, its revenue and profit forecasts and various factors impacting financial performance.
Among these factors was latest innovations in baccarat and specifically the introduction of new baccarat variants made possible by the introduction of smart gaming tables. MBS was an early adopter of Tiger Baccarat, which offers side bets based on banker 6 combinations, in 2018, but only deployed Dragon Tiger Baccarat, with side bets based on Dragon 7 combinations, earlier this year.
Utilizing the smart table solution developed by Angel, MBS said, “Sands and Angel have collaborated to develop a comprehensive smart table solution that incorporates RFID, video analytics and artificial intelligence.
“In mid 2024, MBS installed ‘dual camera + AI solution’ across all rolling and premium mass tables and will have the full solution deployed across all tables by the end of 2025.”
The addition of new baccarat variants with appealing side bets had seen rolling hold percentage increase from 2.65% in 2016 to 3.69% in 2024 year-to-date, it explained.
“Baccarat has been the principal driver of growth at MBS and presents the largest future growth opportunity,” LVS said. “Sands has a strong history of baccarat innovation that will be enhanced with the deployment of smart tables.”
The Angel smart table solution is also being adopted across Sands China’s properties in Macau.
