ShuffleMaster, a gaming company that creates electronic blackjack table games and live blackjack games, has taken the lead when it comes to blackjack in US casinos. The company is responsible for the installation of hundreds of blackjack tables across the US and Asia.

This year, ShuffleMaster has signed on a good number of blackjack gaming casinos such as the Singapore based Marina Bay Sands casino and a few noted racetrack casinos in New York.

The company has also profited as a result of the alteration of gaming laws in states like Delaware and Pennsylvania in particular, since most of the casinos in these states were equipped with ShuffleMaster blackjack tables. Although the new laws required that the electronic tables be removed in favour of live blackjack tables, ShuffleMaster was able to make the switch and benefited from it.

David Lopez, the said chief operating officer for the company commented on the issue. “The transition from electronic to a live market has been a very positive one for ShuffleMaster. The addition of live tables in these two markets has been notable accretive to our earnings, even as some e-Table seats have come out of the market,” he said.

ShuffleMaster has plans of expanding gaming operations into Mexico and Latin America, where the company will market its electronic tables.
