GLOBAL GAMING BUSINESS PODCAST: Joe Bertolone, President & CEO, DEQ

This week the GGB Podcast sits down with : Joe Bertolone, president and CEO of DEQ, on how he and his team has revived the fortunes of a little known table game company.

Table games are becoming an increasingly larger part of the casino industry. Once relegated as an afterthought behind slot machines, table games are making a big comeback because of shifting player preferences, new games and bonusing features, and the baccarat boom in Asia. Joe Bertolone took over DEQ in 2014, and has spent that time focusing the company on its established products and developing new technology features that benefit the casinos and entertain the players. He spoke about the company’s EZ Bacc and how it has revolutionized the world’s most popular table game. Bertolone spoke with GGB Publisher Roger Gros while on the road in April.
