Description

The present invention relates to a gaming machine, and more particularly to a card game machine that distributes cards such as playing cards and advances a card game.

There are many types of games that use cards, especially playing cards, and typical examples include Seven Lines, 21, Seven Bridges, Blackjack, and the like. Among them, 21 is preferred by many people.

According to the 21 basic rules, first, at least two or more cards are dealt to all game participants, and the number of cards is added to determine the outcome. Therefore, when 21 is performed, one of the two cards dealt by the parent is turned face down. Based on this, the player can slowly turn over the face-down cards, and this is where the game gets interesting.

Regarding the card game 21 described above, a game machine has been developed in which cards are dealt by a machine. However, when playing a card game 21 with the game machine, the pattern and score of the cards distributed to the participants are directly displayed. That is, at the same time that the winner or lose distributes the card, it is immediately known, and there is no opportunity for the player to make a judgment while slowly turning the card. This completely eliminates the fun of the game.

Moreover, the conventional game machine described above has a very short time for displaying the card score. When displayed, it immediately shifts to shuffle. Furthermore, even the fairness of the act of giving out cards is suspected, and a serious dispute arises.

Thus, improvements have been made in the industry to remedy these shortcomings. Taiwan Utility Model Registration No. 097205489 provides a card game device capable of slowly turning, predicting and judging cards in a card game, the card game device having a table, A window is formed of a transparent material, and a camera is provided in the window. The camera is electrically connected to a monitor for viewing by the user.

The card game device described above includes card moving means, and the card moving means moves the card onto the window before opening the card to photograph the movement of the card, and transfers the image to the monitor. Therefore, the user can confirm the picture and score of the card in advance, and here, an effect equivalent to judging by turning the card slowly occurs.

However, the time for displaying the movement of the card on the monitor is short, and the user cannot operate the card. Therefore, the effect is not sufficient in spite of the fun of turning the cards slowly and the fun. Therefore, the fun of the card game is not felt at all, and even the fairness of the game can be suspected.
