ABSTRACT:
A gaming table is provided with a coin slot and a coin detector at each of a plurality of player locations. Each coin slot and coin detector is connected to a conduit that leads to a hopper on the interior of the gaming table. The hopper collects each coin that is dropped into the coin slot and passes through the coin detector during the play of the game. The hopper includes a dispensing escalator arm that communicates with a chip rack in the surface of the gaming table. An electronic control system is provided associated with the hopper so that a dealer may remotely activate the hopper to dispense coins from the hopper into the chip rack when it is desired to refill the chip rack with coins for use during the play of the game.
