LAS VEGAS, Nevada, Jan. 23, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Luxury gaming manufacturer and electronic table game (ETG) market leader Interblock® announced today that JACK Entertainment has signed a multi-year deal with Interblock that will bring its PULSE ARENA technology to two additional JACK Entertainment properties: JACK Cincinnati Casino and JACK Cleveland Casino. Both gaming spaces, named Synergy Table Games, plan to go live in March of 2018.

Interblock’s PULSE ARENA is a fully customizable, multi-game stadium that uses lights, music, and live dealers to create an elevated gaming destination. It pulls in new and existing players who are looking for a new and intuitive wagering experience. From a single play station, players can seamlessly toggle between up to four games at a time, providing them with more games per hour.

The revolutionary ETG space was introduced to JACK Entertainment’s Greektown Hotel-Casino in 2016 as Synergy Table Games, powered by Interblock’s PULSE ARENA technology. JACK Cincinnati Casino and JACK Cleveland Casino will bring the hybrid gaming experience to their casino floors under the same brand name.

Each casinos’ customized gaming stadiums will offer automated and video generators as well as live dealer tables that will deliver Roulette, Craps, Multi-hand Blackjack and Baccarat games. Each game will be interconnected to twenty-eight Diamond play stations and a comprehensive video wall. The expansive video wall will display visual motivation and custom video content, which will allow the casino to recognize key players and big wins. The stadium will also be equipped with custom lighting and a DJ booth.

John Connelly, CEO of Interblock said, “We owe a debt of gratitude to the executive management team at JACK Entertainment for truly being a partner in contributing critical improvements to the initial version of the PULSE ARENA installed at Greektown Casino-Hotel. This success has led to new versions of software and leap-frogging technology that will be implemented in the Cleveland and Cincinnati locations.”

“We are thrilled to continue our partnership with Interblock, a company who shares our passion for innovation, to bring an immersive and dynamic new gaming experience to our Ohio casinos. Synergy Table Games has been a big hit at our casino in Detroit and we are confident that our Ohio guests will enjoy it as well,” said Brian Eby, executive vice president and chief innovation officer for JACK Entertainment.
