Shuffling Machines
The casino I play has installed some shuffling machines at some of the tables. I appear to be a bit slow, but I've concluded that moving to such a table is a no-brainer: [1] more dealt hands per hour [2] the increased pace makes every play a little faster (the "feed" on the fast energy), which increases [1] and plays to my strength: I think quicker than they and the're fast play makes them even more predictable than they already are.
So now I play at at the dealing machines. - Louie |

Re: Shuffling Machines
Plus you don't waste time with players calling for a deck change every other hand, because it's already changing every hand [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: Shuffling Machines
Here is L.A., "they" will still find a way to blame the cards. They just ask for a setup more often, or sit out more often.
I agree with Louie, I like the machines a lot. |

Re: Shuffling Machines
One of the best dealers at the room I play in says that the machines break up his rhythm and don't add any hands per hour(for him). Said that it had something to do with his teacher and that other students of the teacher don't like the machines either. I think most of the dealers like them. John |

Re: Shuffling Machines
Hi Louie:
You can also add in less dealing errors which helps to keep the players in a good mood. Best wishes, mason |

Re: Shuffling Machines
At the Bike we are using machines on every table that gets games daily. When the new no limit section was being carved out of some office space adjoining top section, the electricity to the machines was temporarily down in the area we were still spreading no limt. Several times the whole table asked that we be moved to a table with a machine (even when it was inconvieniently located). To make a short story long, we like them here at the Bike [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Shuffling Machines
A big plus in L.A. is that the soreheads don't blame the dealers (as much) for their "bad" cards.

Re: Shuffling Machines
Just to be contrary: is this a good thing? Don't we want the suckers blaming the dealer rather than something more reasonable?

Re: Shuffling Machines
I'm not sure they become more reasonable in their thinking; perhaps they blame the machine instead of the dealer. It does make them less obnoxious and angry. They don't throw their cards as much. I'm for that.
One of my favorites was when a guy, drawn out on on the river, said to the dealer, "All those cards in the deck, you had to pick out the 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] for him?" |

Re: Shuffling Machines
Rick, do you know if they rake more per hour off the tables that have Shufflemasters. |
