System for identifying players at an automatic games machine includes a central controller and keys for controlling the course of a game and for entering an identification code.

摘要

A personal game ID card (2) with an ID code is prepared for each player who inserts this ID card into an automatic games machine (1) via a reading device (3). The player enters an ID code through keys (4) for controlling the course of a game and/or keys (4a) for entering an ID code. A central controller (CPU) compares the ID code entered with the ID code stored on the ID card. If these match, the player gets access to the games machine.
