TYM is a business intelligence tool that helps operators improve their table game mix, table spreads, schedules and betting minimums management. TYM provides predictive analytics to adjust table spread / schedules based on customer demand patterns, recommendations on how to change the game mix to serve unmet customer segments, and real time prompts to floor staff to open or close more games and set betting minimums as player demand fluctuates throughout the day. These components allow a casino to increase profitability and enhance the experience of the players they already have coming through their doors.
