Built in card shuffler

[Kripke]

Does anyone know if and where you can buy those card shufflers that a lot of casino's have built in to their poker tables? I've searched a bunch of sites, but haven't been able to find one. If you're not sure which one's I mean, it is the ones with two buttons on them (green and red) which holds two decks, such that the game flows continously without shuffling. Also, if anyone knows the cost I would appreciate it, thanks.

shufflemaster i think. They cost thousands if you can buy them and some say shuffle master only rents them.

if you have to ask, trust me when i say that you cant afford it. well into the thousands of dollars.

Alright, thanks.

Slightly out of my budget, yes ...

And out of your availability, or anyone elses for that matter. Indeed, they only rent them, and only to licenced casinos.

here's an idea

take about 10 of those $10 electric shuflers, stack them up under the table [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Generally they only rent them, but according to dealers at a casino near me they purchased them for every table (about 25 - 30) and each one was 12,000 ish. I have no idea why they are so expensive, but numberous dealers said the same thing.

$12,000 is an unbelievable price (literally). if this was an absolutely flawless product, i could see that. i was playing at cherokee the other day and they have these and one of the new slug type chips slid in a crevace and screwed this thing up for about 15 minutes. you would think they would think something like that through before producing those.
