This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240233473 titled 'CONTROLLING A NETWORK CARD GAME

The abstract describes a system designed to detect a payout proximity trigger for a progressive jackpot game. The system analyzes shuffle-state image data of a shuffler device to determine the card order of an undealt portion of a deck of cards. It further predicts when a mystery card will be dealt based on the card order and distribution rules, as well as the physical location of the closest gaming table. An anticipatory notification related to the upcoming appearance of the mystery card is then provided.

Original Abstract Submitted

in one example, a system configured to detect a payout proximity trigger for a progressive jackpot game. the system analyzes, in response to the trigger, shuffle-state image data of a shuffler device and determines a card order of an undealt portion for a deck of cards shuffled by the shuffler device. the system further determines, based on the card order and based on card distribution rules, an anticipated timing for when a mystery card will be dealt from the shuffler device for a subsequent game play round during which the payout threshold value is reached. the system further determines a physical location of a closest gaming table relative to the shuffler device. the system further electronically provides, using the anticipated timing (e.g., transmits to an output device at the physical location), an anticipatory notification related to an upcoming appearance of the mystery card.
