Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to a playing cards manipulation device for holding and manipulating a set of playing cards, and its use in casinos and for playing card games.
  • Card playing games are well known nowadays. Often the game is based upon the unpredictability of the order of cards being dealt or drawn from a randomly ordered deck or set of playing cards, wherein a set of playing cards comprises more than one deck of playing cards being randomly ordered at set level.
  • baccarat is played with a randomly ordered set of 8 decks of playing cards, in total 416 randomly ordered cards.
  • the drawn cards cannot be used anymore as such, since the order of drawing and setting aside the drawn cards can be monitored.
  • Players can turn the cards themselves after the bet resulting in compromised, damaged, or destroyed cards. Reusing the used cards may be open for prediction of order, hence of cheating.
  • a playing cards manipulation device for holding and/or manipulating a set of playing cards.
  • the playing card manipulation device comprises an open box comprising at least two mutually opposite lateral walls, a bottom wall between the lateral walls and a backwall between the lateral walls, the bottom wall and the backwall being connected along a coupling rib.
  • the box may have a volume of a trapezoidal prism.
  • the open box further may comprise a face side and a top side, which may be partially or completely open surfaces.
  • the face side i.e. the side opposite the backwall
  • the top side i.e. the side opposite the bottom wall, may be partially or completely open.
  • the outmost point, i.e. the point most remote from the backwall, of the side of the lateral walls opposite to the bottom wall extends beyond the outmost point, i.e. the point most remote from the backwall, of the side of the lateral walls contacting the bottom wall.
  • the two points most remote from the backwall of the side of the lateral walls opposite to the bottom wall may extend over the same length from the backwall.
  • the two points most remote from the backwall of the side of the lateral walls opposite to the bottom wall may extend further from the backwall as compared to the point most remote from the backwall of the side opposite to the bottom wall of the other of the two lateral walls.
  • the lateral walls are delimited by the backwall and an edge defined by the intersection of the lateral walls with a plane perpendicular to said lateral walls such that for both lateral walls, for the point of the side of the lateral wall opposite to the bottom wall, which point is most remote from the bottom wall, the perpendicular projection point to the bottom wall of this point extends further from the coupling rib than the intersection point with said plane of the side of the lateral wall contacting the bottom wall.
  • the playing card manipulation device is adapted to store a plurality of playing cards which may enter the box via the face side, i.e. a side opposite to the bottom wall, this side being typically open.
  • the box can be handled and manipulated with no risk for the playing cards falling from the open box when the box is held in its upright position.
  • playing cards being directly manipulated is an origin of possible misconduct or fraudulent activity, it is of importance that playing cards are touched and manipulated as little as possible.
  • Playing cards having been drawn from e.g. a dealer shoe during playing of a card game are to be safely stored as soon as the playing cards are to be removed from the table.
  • the played playing cards can be stored and held in the playing cards manipulation device immediately after the playing cards being set aside in the game.
  • the played playing cards need to be returned to the backyard or back office of e.g. the casino, optionally being combined with the undealt playing cards, in order to send the complete set of playing cards back to the back office for verification of the completeness of the set of playing cards.
  • the undealt playing cards can be inserted in the playing cards manipulation device, which device can be used to transport the used set of playing cards back to the back office.
  • the playing cards are drawn via a dealer shoe from a set of playing cards stored in a closed cartridge.
  • the played playing cards can be stored and held in the playing cards manipulation device immediately after the playing cards have been set aside in the game.
  • the cartridge may be opened, i.e. a place in the cartridge for storing the dealt playing cards is opened.
  • the playing cards manipulation device can be used as a tool to transfer the played playing cards into the void space of the cartridge, fit for receiving the played playing cards.
  • the complete set of cards can be sent back to the back office using the cartridge itself.
  • the lateral walls have at the side facing away from the backwall an inclined edge, which may be brought in contact with an opened top surface of a cartridge installed in a dealing shoe.
  • the playing cards in the playing cards manipulation device may easily be transferred to the inner void of such cartridge.
  • the backwall may have a perimeter substantially identical to the perimeter of the playing cards to be held and manipulated by the playing cards manipulation means, such as a rectangular perimeter.
  • the face side of the open box may be an open surface.
  • the face side of the box is the side opposite to the backwall.
  • the top side of the open box may be an open surface.
  • the top side of the box is the side opposite to the bottom wall.
  • the box may have a volume of a trapezoidal prism. According to some embodiments, the box may have a volume of a parallelepiped. Possibly the volume of the parallelepiped is a rectangular parallelepiped volume. According to some embodiments, the box may have a volume of a cuboid.
  • the bottom wall may extend beyond the point most remote from the backwall, of the sides of the lateral walls contacting the bottom wall.
  • the bottom wall may have a grip along the rim of the bottom wall being remote from the backwall.
  • the grip may be a small lip or protrusion which can be gripped by two or more fingers. This grip may be used to manipulate the box and to carry it from one place to the other. It may be used to lift the box from a void space in e.g. a card playing table, when the box is housed in such void space in the table.
  • the upper rim of the bottom wall this is the rim which is opposite to the coupling rib or rim of the bottom wall and the backwall, may extend further from the coupling rib, as compared to the intersection point of the side of the lateral wall contacting the bottom wall.
