How clubs with prohibited slot machines work in Russia

In Yekaterinburg and other cities of Russia, clubs with slot machines operate openly. Now they are called "bill systems" or "bookmakers", but anyone who goes inside can see that under the cover sports betting and financial trading, visitors play the same pocket-draining mini-games on slot machines that were banned almost 10 years ago.

Citizens often report on the work of such establishments. We decided to check for ourselves what was hidden behind the catchy signs and blank facades, and headed to one of the clubs called “Bill System”, located at the intersection of Belinsky and Shchors streets.

At the entrance, our correspondent (who does not introduce himself as a media employee) is searched with a metal detector. The dark hall is spacious, with dozens of slot machines. There are 20-25 people behind the machines. Middle working week. One o'clock.

A man sits at one device, staring at the screen on which a monkey is jumping. Drinks beer. Next to him is a disheveled middle-aged woman, she looks at him silently and doomedly. Behind the next device are two people from Central Asia. They quickly whisper about something and alternately point their fingers at the screen.

The girl administrator insinuatingly offers to go to the cashier to “issue a bill.” An impressive-looking security guard is on duty at the cash register window. Before purchasing a bill of exchange, you are asked to sign a document that regulates the activities of the club. It is positioned as “over-the-counter trading”. In fact - an analogue of popular ones on the Internet binary options. Allegedly, playing on slot machines is trading in virtual assets and bills. In reality, the player receives a plastic card on which the paid amount is deposited. There are many identical advertisements on the walls, which say that in one of the branches of the “Bill System” in the Botanical Microdistrict, the player is returned 10% of the money spent the next day after the game.

Next, the administrator offers to take a free machine and place the card in the slot. After this, the “bidding” begins: the player can choose classic games for this type of slot machines. “Here are “Monkeys”, “Climber”, “Fruits”. With this button you can select one of the lines; matches will be counted based on them,” explains the girl.

The game is a classic “one-armed bandit”: you press a button, pictures randomly appear. If several of them are in sequence along the selected line, the player is invited to increase the bets - agree to an additional mini-game and open one of the five playing cards. When certain bonus pictures appear, another mini-game is triggered. A cartoon climber faces a choice between three ropes along which to begin his climb. On some of them obstacles await him - a cave with a monster. The monster hits the man on the head and he falls. Minus 42 rubles on the account.

It took our correspondent about 40 minutes to lose 150 rubles. Regulars come up to the cash register and buy several cards at once for several thousand rubles. Apparently, in order to play on several, as they consider, “lucky” machines at once.

The papers that the player is given to sign indicate the name Tandem LLC. In total, there are about 1.5 thousand operating companies with this name in Russia; we were not able to find out which company we are talking about.

Making sure that we're talking about about real slot machines, we decided to ask law enforcement officers: why such clubs operate in the city so shamelessly, because gambling outside special zones is prohibited, and the Sverdlovsk police headquarters quite often reports on the suppression of the activities of yet another gambling establishment.

“Since 2015, the Yekaterinburg police have carried out 73 operations based on reports of such establishments. The premises were sealed, the equipment was sent for examination. However, we came to the conclusion that this equipment is not gambling equipment. In this regard, it was returned to the owners, and the inspection materials were sent to the Investigative Committee for a decision,” the press group of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for Yekaterinburg reported.

It turned out that in 2015, equipment was confiscated from the very premises where our correspondent went.

The regional investigative department of the Investigative Committee told us that if the results of the examination show that the equipment is not gambling equipment, then there is no reason to initiate cases of illegal gambling activities.

But why didn’t experts find signs of gambling equipment in the “monkeys” and “fruits”? For comment, we turned to experts at the organization ANO “Forensic Expert” (Moscow), who, among other things, conduct examinations of gambling equipment.

“The situation that you explained is absolutely standard, it is typical not only for your region, but also for everyone else. If we take our practice, researchers of the same apparatus can come to different conclusions. It all depends on the form in which this device reaches them. If the research object was removed improperly, then the conclusions will be appropriate. What is often passed on to experts doesn't really qualify as gaming hardware because it doesn't have the necessary hardware - a generator random numbers. It’s clear that if an expert looks at it, he cannot conclude that this is gaming equipment,” explains expert of the ANO “Forensic Expert” Kirill Kravchenko. — What they bring is, roughly speaking, a computer with a monitor in a vandal-proof box. And it has software that connects to the server where the main program resides. Accordingly, when the terminals are seized, the connection to the server is interrupted.”

It turns out that the casino itself is located on remote computer, somewhere “in the cloud”, and slot machines- and not machines at all, but just screens, terminals.

According to the expert, the police should seize not the terminals, but the server, or involve an expert at the seizure stage. “Then the expert could use the control operation method to record the fact that there is a random number generator and a connection to the server,” says Kravchenko.

According to him, after the ban play activity, such establishments were disguised as lotteries. “When this activity was shut down, they began to target the banking sector and play on the stock market. But the visualization is still very crude. There is no logic in this,” says the expert.

Computer games initially originated as “entertainment for one”: in order to play, a person did not need anything other than a computer. Multiplayer, which involved playing against a live opponent, was added much later. And only in exceptional cases (for example, in Counter-Strike) is it primary in relation to the single-player mode or even completely replaces it. But in non-computer games it’s the other way around. Generally, any board game requires multiple players to play.
The computer is bought in a store or any other place where the paper equivalents are yours (or your dad’s, depending on who)

labor activity can be exchanged for a bunch of hardware and microcircuits. Where can you find like-minded people and allies for a board game?
Well, you invariably find friends and buddies whose hearts burn with a desire (probably you did) to take part in D&D-in the module, play a game of fifty in Magic: The Gathering, spread out on the army table Warhammer... But friends and buddies are not always present in the proper quantity and assortment and are not always ready to give you all of their free time(perhaps it is dear to them as a memory). And I just want to chat with someone else, to see, so to speak, a world not limited by the painful recognition of boring cute friendly faces!
And then, illuminated with hope and spreading the wings of anticipation of the unknown, you can go to the club,
where to look for board game entertainment buddies. Go out into the world, so to speak. Show up in public, pronouncing differently. You get the idea, in short.
In general, you can name many reasons why people flock to clubs. We have already named one. Let's assign it the serial number "first".
Now - secondly, right? Why not - great - secondly! - There is a place in the club where you can play. The most meaningful places (apartments and forest/park clearings) are not always accessible. The first is due to parents, harmful neighbors and other interfering factors, and the second is due to changeable weather conditions.
Thirdly: clubs usually sell all sorts of gaming equipment, and once in the club, you can stock up on stock at the same time.
But not everything is so simple with tabletop clubs
games. The trick is that the games are all different, and therefore the atmosphere in each club is special. A similar situation is observed in computer and gaming clubs, but there it is not so pronounced.
Today we finally decided to dot all the letters of the alphabet and tell you what board game clubs exist and what they are.

People who play games


The main contingent of club visitors
consists of students and high school students for whom board games are either a favorite hobby or a good alternative to computer clubs.
Traditionally, board games were thought to be family-friendly. And only in last couple years, stereotypes have come to an end, and the club and youth movement has gained
revolutions This happened due to the fact that many modern board games are deliberately focused on tournament play (for example Magic: The Gathering). Of course, you can play them at home with friends, but home game very different from the tournament. People play at home primarily to have fun and enjoy themselves. At the tournament - also for the sake of winning, victory and self-affirmation. Some games are generally very difficult to play at home - you need special tabletops or other equipment, which not every novice commander or magician can spend money on shining example- military tactical games such as Warhammer).
Most often, board game clubs work with one particular gaming area. Today, the vast majority of clubs are promoting
collectible card games, there are many clubs for military tactics, and practically no clubs for role playing games. All existing clubs can be divided into three large categories: "desks at the store", "gaming clubs" And "clubs of like-minded people".

Tables at the store


Selling board games is not a potato
trade. It is necessary not only to sell the product correctly, but also to make sure that customers come to the store again. Therefore, “toy sellers” are primarily concerned with ensuring that visitors have a place to play their newly purchased board game. For this reason, companies involved in the distribution of gaming products often open their own gaming clubs, thereby killing two birds with one stone: the club at the store is also point of sale, and playing space.
The most striking example is company clubs "Sargon" , the main "seller" of card games. In addition to selling cards and attributes for the game, tournaments, presentations of new sets, city championships, etc. are regularly held there.
The main advantage of such “club-shops” is that you can always buy a full range of products (the St. Petersburg branch of the company, by the way, is at the same time an office, a warehouse and a club). However, as a rule, such clubs do not promote anything other than the “main product”, and therefore the range of services they provide is limited. Occasionally you can find a refrigerator with soda and storage rooms. Most often, such clubs are located in residential areas, in small semi-basements; sometimes temporary premises are rented for them in
schools or art houses.

Club for the sake of the club


Recently, there have been clubs whose main task is not to sell goods, but to provide players with the opportunity to comfortably spend time playing their favorite game. Most often, such establishments have a narrow thematic focus - only military-tactical or only card games. Of course, such clubs can also have shops, but the emphasis is on organizing the gaming space.
Characteristic feature Such clubs have special employees - game administrators who can teach you how to play from scratch or explain the intricacies of the rules, as well as advise on purchases. Most often, it depends on the personality of the administrator whether the club will use
popularity and how comfortable it will be for visitors.
Unlike “club-shops,” gaming clubs are usually located in good areas and occupy a significant area of ​​​​premises - their main task is to make the visitor satisfied, and therefore there are usually more requirements for them. Typically, such clubs provide a wide range of related services - from organizing tournaments and conducting training events to hot kitchens and selling beer. Sometimes you can even find a computer room for fans of virtual blood.

Club of like-minded people


It happens like this: a group plays their favorite game. They play while going home, gradually expanding their circle of friends, bringing new acquaintances. After a while, when we get ready at home,
in a dorm or garage is no longer possible due to cramped conditions; a room is rented for traditional gaming gatherings. This could be a restaurant hall or the foyer of a cultural center, a basement or a room in a housing office. Such clubs are characterized by their closed nature (you can only get in on the recommendation of your friends) and an extremely friendly atmosphere. Sometimes such establishments degenerate into “professional” ones, but more often it happens that the main core of like-minded people disintegrates, people lose interest in the game and the club closes.
The described situation is very typical for peripheral cities - many existing card game clubs began with the initiative of several players.
* * *

Today, most existing establishments belong specifically to the category “tables at
store." Hence the overwhelming number of "card" clubs and the almost complete absence of clubs for role-players. Despite this, one can only be glad that there are clubs, their number is growing, and the demand for them is constantly increasing. And maybe, after a while, clubs board games will become as commonplace as computer clubs and internet cafes. At least, board game clubs that exist today cannot always cope with the influx of visitors.
The photographs used in the article were taken at the clubs "MagicLand" (Kyiv), "Sargona" (St. Petersburg) and "Labyrinth" (Moscow).

Card game clubs
Moscow

"Portal". On this moment- the largest card games club in Moscow. Basement in city ​​center,
large (150 seats) and small (8-10 seats) gaming rooms. Regular holding of MTG and Pokemon tournaments.
"Odyssey". The oldest club in Moscow. In the recent past, the club hosted educational role-playing games, but today only cards remain - MTG, Legend of the Five Rings, etc.
Saint Petersburg

"Sargon". The only club in the whole city that deals with board games. The emphasis is on MTG. To hold tournaments on weekends, the cafeteria in a nearby school is rented. The most stylish and, perhaps, the most comfortable of all Sargon’s establishments. On weekends
Warhammer fans also began to gather here.
Kyiv

"MagicLand". At the moment, it is the best club for playing MTG, which has become a cult among Russian players. A huge two-story building (a former kindergarten building), its own club system, regularly holding prestigious tournaments that attract players from the CIS countries.
"Legend". Another Sargon club, the only one on the territory of Ukraine. In addition to MTG, there is the opportunity to play role-playing games.
Card game clubs in other cities

There are clubs dedicated to Magic: The Gathering in many cities. Such clubs host tournaments, regional championships, and prereleases.
new sets, etc. Unfortunately, almost all such clubs, except MTG, do nothing.
Military tactical games clubs

Moscow

"BoltFire".
A delight for Mordheim and Warhammer 40k players. Gaming tables with decent terrain. There is a themed store, it is possible to create an individual order (with 100% prepayment). In addition to everything, there is a computer room nearby.
"Alegris". A club at the warehouse of a company of the same name that sells military tactical games. Located in the basement and featuring landscape tables where you can play Warhammer 40k and other military tactical games. Cheap and cheerful.
"The Age of Battles". Club created by a plastic factory
"Star" to promote your own gaming system.
Universal clubs

Moscow

"Dream country". Once a popular gathering place for fans of card games and military-tactical BattleTech, it also attracted Warhammer fans and even role-playing players. Unfortunately, the cheap liquor bar and the loyalty of the security led to the fact that serious players began to avoid the club, considering it a brothel.
"Labyrinth". A very young club with serious aspirations. It was conceived as a club for role-playing games, but quickly outgrew this status due to large area premises. In addition to traditional card and military tactical games, board and printed games are rented, and training events are held in all areas of gaming. The club has a café and a games store.

IN modern world It’s almost impossible to do without the Internet. Despite the fact that every day it is becoming more and more popular in private houses and apartments, it is not yet possible to install fiber optics everywhere and make traffic accessible and inexpensive. In this case an excellent alternative may become a specialized establishment that provides access to the Internet for a fee. It can be a large online club or a relatively small one. In the latter option, a small room is rented, in which up to 20 workstations with computers and software are equipped.

A large computer club has 30-50 fairly powerful machines with high-speed Internet, VIP rooms and a cafe. Establishments of this scale pay off slowly, as they require serious capital investments, but they usually do not have problems with regulatory authorities. But regardless of the format of the future institution, you will definitely need a competent and accurate business plan for a computer club.

Legal issues

Any business must be legal from a legal point of view, and gaming is no exception. The best organizational and legal form for opening a computer club is individual entrepreneur ( individual entrepreneur). First you need to come up with a memorable and sonorous name for the club, which is related to computer topics.

In order to register an establishment, you will need:

  • registration application;
  • memorandum of association;
  • the charter of the future enterprise and information about the founder of the club;
  • a receipt indicating payment of the state duty;
  • documents that confirm the consent of the antimonopoly authorities.

It is also necessary to settle all issues with regulatory authorities. It is usually difficult to meet all the requirements, so their decision will depend on many factors. In order for the establishment to operate around the clock, you will need to obtain permission from the police department.

If you plan to open a small gaming computer club, then it does not make sense to immediately spend money on purchasing licensed software, but you still need to take into account that it will be necessary to purchase it in the future. This can be done through Russian representative offices of manufacturing companies. Before installing a licensed program, you will need a special license that allows its commercial use. It can be purchased from a distributor; the cost of the license is calculated individually for each computer club.

Selecting a location

The best place to open such an establishment is a residential area with large numbers population or street where a significant number of people are concentrated educational institutions. A good place to locate a computer club is a busy intersection, market area or large store. IN residential buildings It is undesirable to open an establishment of this kind, since the audience of the gaming computer club is quite noisy, so the residents will definitely complain. In addition, in a residential building the club is most often located in the basement, so it will be difficult to obtain permits from the sanitary and epidemiological station and the fire inspectorate.

The rental cost per square meter in residential areas is usually low, so the annual payment will not be too high.

Clients and demand for services

The main visitors to the computer club will be:

  • students and schoolchildren visiting the institution not only for educational purposes, but also for playing;
  • clients different ages who do not often go to the computer club.

Considering that the sphere of distribution of computer services is quite developed, the main attention in the project development process must be paid to the relationship between the user and the seller.

It is necessary to place the main emphasis on the qualifications, competence and friendliness of the managers who will serve the gaming room.

Computer club services are almost always in demand. But at the same time, seasonal deviations to a smaller or larger direction are possible. During exams and sessions at universities, attendance for educational purposes increases significantly, and games begin to interest potential clients during school holidays.

In the pricing process, it is important to consider the purchasing power of the intended customers and the quality of the services provided.

Necessary equipment and hiring of personnel

The next step is purchasing equipment. Here it is important not to save on purchasing the necessary equipment, since many visitors come to play in the computer club, and games require high-quality and modern equipment. Therefore, the more powerful the technology, the more visited the establishment will be. You will also need to purchase printers and scanners, appropriate furniture: tables, chairs; equip workplace administrator.

Next, you need to select the right personnel for the job. Several people will be needed to provide technical support and setup of computer hardware and software. You can invite students from specialized universities who live nearby. If we talk about a small club, then for its normal operation 3-4 people will be enough to maintain the software and work with clients. You will also need one system administrator. Basically, computer clubs operate around the clock, so you need to organize work in two shifts. You can’t do without a security guard, since the establishment will have expensive equipment.

For official registration of personnel, registration will be required. employment contract in many authorities, such as tax authorities, social, pension and health insurance funds. It will be necessary to maintain payroll records for each employee work books and tax cards. Therefore, if possible, it is better to negotiate with a large organization so that the staff is registered there, and then leased to the club. As a result, you can get rid of paperwork, which will be handled by the enterprise’s HR department. An accountant will be needed to maintain accounting records if the club owner himself cannot handle this matter.

Ways to advertise effectively

After opening a new computer club, you can begin an advertising campaign. For this you will need:

  • Post up leaflets with prices and the address of the club on schools and entrances of houses (before drawing up the ad layout, it is important to consider that the main the target audience teenagers 10-18 years old);
  • place advertisements on the Internet on specialized websites;
  • create a noticeable and bright sign with a detailed list of services provided;
  • regularly organize various promotions and tournaments;
  • create a system of discounts, for example, for clients who work more than three hours in a row.

Development of a computer club

For a newly opened establishment, it is important to provide a sufficient level of service, because most computer clubs are usually inattentive to their customers. Since a specific audience usually gathers in this place, it is necessary to act outside the box. There are situations when older guys demand money from younger ones. Therefore, as an option, you can give hooligans a free monthly subscription. You can also try to attract the attention of visitors to your establishment through various competitions with monetary reward. Or create a scoreboard.

It is necessary to invent and implement original ideas, as a result, the constant development of even a small club will help to significantly increase monthly revenue from each computer. Over time, the establishment will be able to move to a new level, the clients of which will be the wealthy public. The following services will be available:

  • high-speed Internet access;
  • copying and burning discs;
  • working with office applications;
  • scanning various documents;
  • printing files;
  • photocopying;
  • conducting computer courses.

It may be necessary to create two rooms: one, a games room, for young people, the other for more serious clients.

Once you decide that you want to open your own kids club, Of course, you won’t immediately start buying equipment and recruiting a team. You will study the features of this business. And you will also definitely come up with a name to his brainchild. And this is not an easy task! There are already thousands of clubs with beautiful and not so beautiful names.

Using these instructions, you can come up with a great name for your children's center, that your customers will like.

How can you come up with something original if there are already so many wonderful titles?

I suggest using the work of artists and designers, namely creative search methods. The main one is search for associations.

7 Creative Search Methods:

  1. View this list of names of children's clubs and development centers. Turn on yours associative thinking and continue each of the categories with your own names. For example, for the category “Animals” I came up with the following words: Tit, Kitten, Sparrow, Stork, Giraffe, Penguin, Peacock, Whale, Fox, Dragon.
  2. Any of these names can be matched bright adjective. Well, for example: children's club "Smart Tit", school early development"Orange Kitten", children's art studio "Colored Peacock", child Center"Magnificent Sparrow", family center "White Stork", family Entertainment Center“Cheerful Giraffe”, development center “Kind Dragon”.
  3. You can also add to the Russian word foreign words or take it completely foreign phrase. For example, the Art Fox art studio or the Clever Fox children's club.
  4. Think about different active titles. For example, the children's development center “Play, Baby!”
  5. Call your friends, relatives or colleagues and arrange brainstorm. This is the same method of associations, only here it is not one person who thinks, but several. They name the associations one by one. It is important that someone writes down all the ideas that are called. Often the collective mind works wonders.
  6. If you a famous person or a professional in the field of child development, you you can use your name in the name of the children's club. For example, “Lena Danilova’s website.”
  7. you also can take over the name club, which is located in another city, but consider the following:

secondly, do not take the names of very famous children's institutions. It will be difficult for you to first reach their level and then surpass it. The same applies to promoting the website of your children's club;

thirdly, try to change at least something in the original name. This is necessary to avoid a situation where Google (or another search engine) responds to the request “children's club” Cheerful broom»» will show 2 clubs with the same name.

What should you not call a children's club?

  1. Do not use words that may cause any negative associations. For example, an unfortunate name for a children's club is “Lepota”, because it is associated with the word “blindness”. Stores also sell children’s juice “Spelenok”, the name of which is often read as “Soplyonok”.
  2. Avoid words and phrases that are difficult to pronounce (Example: children's club "Ribambel"). Be careful with diminutive forms - they are not always appropriate. For example, names like “Chameleon” or “Brovarchenok” are a little difficult to read.
  3. Do not use unclear words, because you will have to explain them to everyone for a long time. Example: “Hyperborea”, “Atyudiki”.
  4. Beware of rude and childhood words. You will have to build a complex connection between the name of the establishment and its attitude towards children. For example, “Bartolomeo”, “Garage” or “Tachanka”.
  5. Banal and very common names are also not the best option. They attract little attention, and the search engine returns too many identical names. In addition, associations with the school clubs of our Soviet childhood have not disappeared. For example, “Rainbow”, “Sun”, “Dawn”, “Chamomile”.

In addition to the name, the children's institution also has definition. Here, too, a huge field for imagination opens up. Moreover, the definition is much deeper than the name. It displays essence and main idea children's institution. For example, a “talent club” indicates that children’s talents are valued here and, in addition to developmental activities, there are many sections and courses. Family Centers have programs designed not only for children, but also for their parents.

38 definitions for preschool institutions:

With a focus on child development:

Children's Club, Early Development Center, Developmental Center, Educational and Development Center, Institute for the Development of Child Intellect, Development School, Child Development Center, Child Development Center, Intelligence Development Center, Children's Club, Early Development Studio, School of the Future First-Grade, Early Development Groups, English Children's Club, Harmonious Development Club, The educational center, Child Psychology and Development Club, Montessori Center, Children's Educational Center

Working with families:

Family Center, Family Club, Family Development Center, Family Ecology Center, Family Success Club, Family Club, Family psychological club, Family leisure club, Family entertainment center, Center for children and parents

Variety of studios, focus on creativity:

Talent Club, Center creative development children, Children's Culture Center

Children's leisure:

Leisure club, Club children's leisure, Children's gaming club

Emphasis on a favorable atmosphere:

Good Home, Eco-Club, Friends Club.

These definitions are very beautiful and varied, but I want to add my own fly in the ointment: When asking a search engine a question, clients most often look for simple and familiar definitions. Therefore, if you are planning using the Internet, it is better to focus on more banal words, such as “children’s club” or “children’s development center.”

I hope that this extensive article did not bore you, but inspired you. And you are already inventing the most best titles for your children's center!
