I was only there on Sunday but heard from that the results were:
1) High Card Flush (Galaxy's newly acquired game that is being played in Laughlin)
2) Horse Racing Derby (this was the suit based drawing game with each suit advancing one of four horses to the finish line. It was at G2E in '11 & '12)
3) Player's Choice BJ (get three cards initially, and split them in to two hands, one card used in both hands other used only in one of the hands)

Hmmm.... I think this is the game that Miplet and I played together at G2E 2011.
As I recall, we thought it was fun - while the game's inventor was running the game. He was very enthusiastic, and making calls that sounded like a horse race announcer's banter. When he took a break and the quiet dealer took over, it got very boring, very quickly.
We concluded that the game would fail if it didn't have a good dealer.
I invented a few casino games. Info:

Was this the one that the Aussies had, exactor bet, etc ?
Shed not for her
the bitter tear
Nor give the heart
to vain regret
Tis but the casket
that lies here,
The gem that filled it
Sparkles yet

Yes, Buzz that is the one!
DJ & Mips were playing it at G2E in '11 and it is where I first met both of them.

The irony of Galaxy winning again this year is the fact that they don't really need the field trial that is offered as the 1st place prize!

All the usual boiler plate of course, but hopefully first to patent now offers more protection that first to invent ? ? ?
