In Las Vegas, dominoes aficionados could reportedly soon be able to visit the Plaza Hotel and Casino so as to enjoy a brand new table game which was designed by a 42-year-old graduate of the University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV).
Based on a Saturday report from the vegas Review-Journal paper, the new innovation is named Casino Dominoes and relies upon the ‘Muggins’ variation of dominoes. The brainchild of developer, Harold Moret, the game substitutes conventional tiles with 56 playing cards featuring domino markers and challenges players to connect three identically-marked symbols to some ‘connector’ card.
Beautiful house edge:
The paper reported that each table game can serve up to six players but provides no competition between participants with each hand position on its own for competitors to win or lose. It clarified that Casino Dominoes is significantly more rewarding than craps, blackjack or baccarat as its house edge stands at approximately 5.34 percent, which is roughly the same as for three-card poker.
Licensing hopes:
The vegas Review-Journal reported the Plaza Hotel and Casino recently finished a 45-day trial of Casino Dominoes that watched matches provided every day between 6pm and 2am using all the innovation now set to confront final approval from the Nevada Gaming Commission on Thursday. If this proves successful, Moret has hopes of rolling out his advance to casinos across Nevada and earn fees of up to $1,000 each table every month.
Successor in the works:
Moret told the paper he has been enamored with dominoes ever because his grandfather taught him the rules of the game some 30 decades back. If Casino Dominoes is a hit, he reportedly announced he would like to bring to advertise a second dominoes-based progress to be themed on the game’s ‘Mexican Train’ variation.
