Bally
Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: BYI) (“Bally”), a leader in gaming
machines, table-game products, casino-management systems, interactive
applications, and networked and server-based systems for the global

with Boyd

leading casino entertainment companies.

The agreement includes deployment of Bally’s award-winning iVIEW
Display Manager (DM) with Elite
Bonusing Suite across 18 Boyd Gaming casino properties in seven
states, including Nevada.
Boyd Gaming will continue expanding its use of Bally’s systems,
including ACSC
slot-monitoring, marketing, player-tracking, and accounting solutions,
as well as Power
Promotions, which enables casinos to offer players downloadable
promotional slot credits.
“After a thorough review process, we believe Bally’s innovative systems
solutions are a great way to differentiate our properties from the
competition,” said Paul Chakmak, Executive Vice President and Chief
Operating Officer of Boyd Gaming. “As a key component of our new Penny
Lane initiative, Bally’s dynamic tools will help us create new and
compelling gaming experiences, allowing us to provide ‘More Bonuses,
More Often’ to our customers.”
iVIEW DM is backward compatible on most gaming devices with a
touch-screen display and provides a way for casino operators to present
self-service player-account access, marketing messages, and secondary
bonus games on the main game screen – without interrupting play, drawing
crowds of thousands, and creating frenzied excitement across the casino.
Elite Bonusing Suite, when combined with iVIEW DM, adds
dramatic new levels of excitement and anticipation to the slot-play
experience with tools such as Virtual
Racing, Virtual
Racing NASCAR®, and DM
Tournaments, which have powered five world record-setting events.
“It is very humbling and rewarding that Boyd Gaming has chosen Bally’s
systems solutions to enhance their technology and take their player
communications and bonusing programs to the next level with our
floor-wide solutions iVIEW DM and the Elite Bonusing Suite,”
said Sethuram Shivashankar, Senior Vice President Systems Research &
Development and Information Technology at Bally Technologies. “We truly
value the opportunity to continue our strong partnership with Boyd
Gaming.”
