The invention relates to a device for shuffling playing cards, comprising: two shuffling card compartments which can each be placed in a first position and in a second position; a delivery compartment; transporting means for carrying the playing cards from the shuffling compartment located in the first position to the shuffling compartment located in the second position; discharge means for carrying playing cards from the card compartment located in the first position to the delivery compartment; control means for normally activating the transporting means and for otherwise activating the discharge means as determined by algorithm; feed means for feeding the playing cards for shuffling to one of the shuffling compartments. The shuffling operations to be performed by the dealer are time-consuming, which is all the more important as the game has to be stopped during shuffling, so that a relatively large part of the available playing time at a gaming table has to be spent on shuffling, which of course has an adverse effect on the obtainable turnover at the table. In preference the shuffling device comprises means for exchanging the position of both shuffling compartments. |
