1. A card dealing shoe for facilitating play of card games, comprising:
a) an elongated housing defining a card staging area therein, the housing including a front end portion having a base including a first opening, a sloped upper surface having a second opening therein, opposing side walls and a sloped front wall separated from the sloped upper surface to form a card feed slot from which cards may be manually removed from the card staging area; b) a roller mounted for rotational motion on an axle connected at each of the opposing side walls, the roller including an outer surface extending radially from the axle to be positioned to be exposed through the first opening in the base and c) a pivoting lever having a first end and an opposing second end, wherein the first end protrudes from the second opening in the sloped upper surface, the pivoting lever configured to pivot between a first position and a second position, wherein in the first position, the first end protrudes from the second opening in the sloped upper surface and the second end restricts rotational motion of the roller, and in the second position, the first end is pivoted in the direction of the second opening and the second end is pivoted to permits rotational motion of the roller, wherein the pivoting lever is biased towards the first position. |
