Abstract
A system includes a smart table configured to use radio-frequency identification (RFID)-enabled chips and at least one RFID sensor. The smart table defines a plurality of player positions. The smart table also includes a processor configured to detect, using the at least one RFID sensor of the smart table, one of: (i) removal of at least one RFID-enabled chip from a wagering area on the smart table, or (ii) addition of at least one additional RFID-enabled chip to the wagering area. The processor is also configured to automatically determine an outcome of a wagering game, where the outcome is a winning outcome if at least one RFID-enabled chip is added to the wagering area, and where the outcome is a losing outcome if at least one RFID-enabled chip is removed from the wagering area
