Reno, Nevada-based, GameTech International.

ruling that Video King was also entitled to the judgment for its
attorneys’ fees that it had previously been awarded by the district
court and which had been collected from GameTech in 2011.

conscientious corporate citizen, and that Video King will continue to
vigorously defend against any claims, which seek to tarnish our
corporate image.”

Not only can OMNI issue gift
certificates, but allows users to create
their own (See sample, top image.) Complete with an optional bar-coding
system, this easy-to-use
feature is ideal for smaller halls, which do not wish to hire a graphic
artist. Creating your own gift certificates is just one of the many
reasons OMNI, our multi-functional Bingo hall management system, is the
ultimate choice among end-users!
Top 10 Reasons OMNI Trumps Other Systems!
What is continuously expanding, yet takes up virtually no space, can
receive vast amounts of data, yet forgets nothing, can perform a variety
of tasks without physically moving ...
No, super humans have not yet populated planet Earth, but we are making strides.
Video King’s Research & Development team have worked tirelessly perfecting OMNI, ™ our revolutionary, multi-functional, Bingo Hall management system, with continuous new features.
In other words, OMNI, prized for its supreme tracking ability, is simply
smarter than the average cash register ... making it the ultimate
choice among the end-users.
And, judging from a recent poll, here are their top 10 reasons why...
1. User-Friendly: Touch-screen driven, OMNI has the look and feel
of a Web page, highly appealing to the computer-savvy generation,
easing navigation, simultaneously increasing their speed and efficiency.
2. Multi-Tasking: Unlike other menu-based systems, OMNI’s graphical interface allows end-users to complete multiple tasks at once.
A person can start issuing paper, then be called upon to perform
different task, bouncing back and forth between tasks, without having to
close out each screen.
3. Cash Tracking: Known in today’s parlance as “Follow The
Money,” be it paper or cash form, OMNI has the ability to monitor and
control all bank or vault functions, such as cash deposits and coupons.
MICs-compatible, OMNI can also track paper by both series and serial …
number – a bonus for Bingo halls that handle large volumes of paper.
4. Accountability: OMNI, with its extremely, comprehensive, audit
tracking system, is designed like a detective with a steel-trap mind.
Anything you do in the system is tracked.
For instance, if someone tries to log in unsuccessfully, not only will
it show how many times were tried, but the exact time, date and from
which work station.
Also, if ever needed for insurance claims, it records everything up to
the last sheet of paper entered, proving to be an invaluable resource.

TriplePlay Bingo Display Super-Sized!
Coming Soon! Stay Tuned!
TriplePlay Bingo Display ‘Super-Sized!’ Flashboard Image Spread Across 3 Wide-Screen TVs! What could be better than one 40-, 50- or even 60-inch video flashboard?
How about three of them ...
That’s right, Video King has developed yet another way to visually
enhance your Bingo game, typically eyed by a highly receptive crowd: Our
new Triple Play Bingo Display!™
By splitting the electronic flashboard image into three, hi-definition (HD) channels, everything can be much, MUCH bigger – as it is spread across three TV screens.
Aligned in the shape of a traditional flashboard, two of the monitors
will show the 75-number Bingo board, and the third, the other game
information, including game name, pattern, ball called, ball count, or
even the ball image, according to Dan Free, Video King’s CTO and Vice President of Electronics.
“When verifying a winner, two monitors will continue to show the
flashboard, while the third monitor shows the verified card,” he
explained.
“This really is a one-size fits all solution,” he said.
“Depending on your budget and the size of your hall, you can use whatever size TV monitors you wish, as long as they are the widescreen, 16:9 format.

Series Makes YouTube Debut!
He's no dummy ... Brian Hagelgans,
center, an amateur ventriloquist and regional sales manager for Video
King, is creating a series of videos, "So Easy A Dummy Can Do it,"
touting our entire product line and all things Bingo. The videos will be
posted on the Video King Network Channel on YouTube.
'So Easy A Dummy Can Do It' Makes YouTube Debut! Dynamic Duo 'Vents' About Video King!
So Easy A Dummy Can Do It ... Don’t be alarmed. We’re not exactly
talking down to someone, but in this case, rather through someone ...
err thing ...
Through the “magic” of ventriloquism Brian Hagelgans is developing a series of videos for Video King, touting the simplicity of using our entire line of electronic gaming products, beginning with our Champion II™ and TAB-e™ touch-screen tablets.
A regional sales manager, Hagelgans will write, act and direct in the series, “So Easy A Dummy Can Do It,” along with “Uncle Pops,” his right or is it left-hand man, a character he created specifically for Video King.
Coming soon to a computer-screen, i-phone or other social-savvy media
device nearest you, the first installment will be posted on the Video King Network Channel, hosted by YouTube, for global review.
But as a small boy, ventriloquism was the last thing Hagelgans ever
wanted to do. In fact, much like Pinocchio, (the wooden boy puppet) safe
to say he was petrified.
And that ain’t no lie ...
“I’d seen ventriloquists on TV and never wanted a dummy. They scared me to death,” he said, still recoiling at the memory.
But as fate would have it, like many of us, he was forced to face his greatest fears.
“My mom worked at a little department store in Delaware, Ohio. In the
window was a box with a Charlie McCarthy doll (part of a very famous
ventriloquist act, back in the day.)
All he happened to utter was “Look Mom,” and to his horror, the next thing he knew the dummy was lying, waiting, amongst his presents under the next Christmas tree.
Needless to say, their relationship didn’t start, nor, end, well. “I
destroyed that dummy. I beat him up and flew him down stairs. I painted
him silver, red, and turned him into a robot. He ended up in the trash,”
he gleefully admits, with more than a bit of residual relish.
Then something peculiar happened ...
At about 12 or 13, Hagelgans, as if possessed, became interested in ventriloquism.
“I took a mail order course and read every book I could on it,” he said.
Nor was he following in anyone’s, that he knows of, footsteps ...
“I come from a musical family. My dad sang the Gospel, like an angel ...
My mom is a piano teacher, and always played for dad’s singing.
“My brother plays all kinds of instruments, as do his son and daughter, who also sing. I’ve never been musical,” Hagelgans said.
Instead, he was moved to take a different route. He began throwing,
instead of projecting his voice ... err ... voices, (in layman’s terms,
making the dummy appear to be speaking while you remain silent) he said.
Which got him into a fair bit of trouble, at least with certain family members, while he worked on perfecting his routines.
“I pissed off my brothers. When their girlfriends came over, I’d sit on the couch and do wisecracks.”
Then others would begin “projecting” their voices, making sure they were
heard – without a certain “mouthpiece” – loud and clear.
“Why don’t you put that #$@^*& thing away,” they often said.
“You can make people mad,” he admits, sounding like he was lucky to
reach adulthood, by the way he liked to pester his older brothers.
But he wasn’t about to pull the plug on his fake-believe, little friend. Besides he had too much invested.

The Big HeistComing Soon ...
It’d Be A Crime Not To Play … Video King Stages ‘Big Heist’ Bingo Game!
Psst ... keep this under yer hats ...
Word on the street, Video King is ready to pull off another big one ...
caper that is. Not so fast, wise guys, don’t make any sudden moves –
just yet. It’s all gonna go down in the nears future. So keep yer ears to the ground
...
And, we got it on “high authority,” this ain’t your ordinary Bingo game.
This one’s a real doozy. Straight from the horse’s mouth. They’re calling it “The Big Heist,” sure to ice out the competition. It involves dames, dangerous dames, you know the kind, and cash, bundles of cash ...
Fact, luck be a lady, cause this one’s much like their last, lucrative “venture,” Crazy Quarters,™ which
reaped not one, but up to three potential prizes each game, not to
mention the must-go jackpot, paid at the end of every session – and then some.
Now them’s a lot of clams ...
Here’s how we "gather" the game’s gonna go down, so pays attention ...
Dangerous Dame Progressive
For a $1 purchase, you’ll receive three regular Bingo cards, being
played for the regular game prize, and one Bingo card with the Dangerous
Dame symbol.
Win the Dangerous Dame Progressive by hitting the pattern with the last
number called containing the Dangerous Dame symbol, you’ll recognize
her, she’s the blonde number in the red beret.
Big Bucks Bundle
For a 10-cent purchase, you’ll receive one Big Bucks Bundle symbol, that is added to a regular Bingo card.
Wanna up the stakes ...
For 25 cents, you can receive three Big Bucks Bundle symbols, that are added to three regular prize Bingo cards.
Win the Big Bucks Progressive by hitting the pattern with the last
number called containing the Big Bucks symbol, you’ll see it, it’s that
pile of cold, hard cash ...
Must-Go Jackpot
To become a member of this “club,” and enjoy certain privileges, there are a few steps you must partake in order win this prize ...
Play the specified number of games, leading up to the final jackpot, the number of games required determined by the “staff.”
Don’t worry, you don’t need to know their names, they know who yous are ...
If for some reason you get cement ... er ... lead feet about your selection, this game gives you an out ...
Before the game begins, cards can be swapped for new ones to place your Dangerous Dames and Big Bucks Bundles in “luckier” positions, based on the game pattern to be played.
Don’t worry, you don’t have to take an oath or anything. Just touch the
cards on the screen to swap ’em, and press the “Page” button to view
fresh ones.
Here’s Another Tip ...
The player-funded regular game and progressive jackpot amounts are tracked in real time, based on the card purchases.
So the more bread you spend, the bigger your potential pile of dough.
To keep yous in the know and stop some from yammering, all the game
information, including flashboard and pattern, can be found ’neath the
Money Man’s feet, seen fleeing, under the cloak of darkness, from the
scene.
But first, get this pounded through yer heads. You must press the daub
button to mark your cards and pull your own weight, cause slept bingos are not legit!
Not that you have to watch yer backs or anything, but I’d keep my eyes
on the bullet-sprayed game board, that’s front and center on the screen.
That
way you can see how many numbers you are away from a Bingo and, if, a
progressive is about to be hit. When you hear the last number called,
don’t run for cover, just touch the ball on the screen and yell “Bingo!”
Once the win is verified, no need to rub yer eyes to make sure it’s
true, you’ll soon see “Congratulations” and a green circle with a line
through the center, as well as the amount credited to your account, pop,
pop, pop, fast like real gunfire, onto the screen ...
Now we ain’t saying you gotta play our game, no harms will come to yous, but based on the prize-earning potentials, it’d be a crime not to ...
And, if anyone questions you about the "game," of course, you tell ’em Video King sent yous ...
