As the first advance in gaming deposits and payments since ticket-in, ticket out was developed in the 1990s, Sightline’s Play+ system allows players to establish a pre-paid account and use their loyalty card to move money from that account to their favorite slot or table game. Bobby Soper , president of the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority, was instrumental in approving the system for Mohegan Sun in Connecticut. He says the ease of use and convenience for the player was an important part of that decision, as well as the reduction in paperwork and data availability for the casino. He also talks about other developments in the MGTA, including the possibility of a South Korean integrated resort, which has been approved since this interview was conducted by GGB Publisher Roger Gros at Mohegan Sun last November.
