Thanks. I knew I was lost, as usual. I might have to split 10's just to see the dealer find room at a crowded table !

Greg has actually tweaked the game a little bit, or so I have been told.

Doing a little research. SHFL has a similar game called "Roll Your Own Blackjack". Its a single deck game where you get 3 cards and make two hands: one with 2 cards and one with 1 card. It also had a mandatory 3 card bet that needs a flush to pay. See link below for more information.

I posted an article about advantage play against High Card Flush on my blog. In my opinion, it's a fairly safe game. But they all have their issues. I would enjoy input from any APs here on my rough analysis.

" Galaxy Gaming's entry, High Card Flush, claimed the first place prize, keeping alive Galaxy Gaming's record-breaking winning streak for four consecutive years. "
Anybody know the name of the other 3 games ??
P.S. I intend to break their win streak in 2013.

Did not intend this to be a trick question BUT
The quote from Galaxy website has me curious. EZ Baccarat ( DEQ ) won in 2008. 2009 was Fortune Teller Blackjack.
2010 was Triple Attack Blackjack. But I do not think Raving had a Table Games Conference and/or winner in 2011 !

I do not believe they've won 1st each of the four years, they've received a top 3 in each of the four years. This year was a 1st for High Card Flush, 2011 was a 1st for Triple Attack Blackjack. The previous two were something other than first. One was a game and one was their Bonus Jackpot System I believe.

This one is slightly different in that you break the cards in to a two card hand and a one card hand (as opposed to using one of the cards in both hands in PC21). Also, SHFL's uses a single deck (and requires a shuffler) vs. PC21 being a shoe game.
However, the game concept is very similar. Not sure what that means. If SHFL is having success with this product, you have some tough competition from a very similar game. If SHFL isn't getting this installed, you'll need to bank that it is because of the shuffler cost or the changes in PC21 are a big enough differentiator. Not sure which spot is more desirable.
Good find Mips!

Roll Your Own is authorized for play in several states. Looking at the lists ,it seems like a graveyard is needed for them. Lots and Lots I never heard of. TUFF racket. Maybe I should say I intend to win bronze or higher in 2013.
If the game is half as good as the name, I am a lock !

They were 1st in 2009, 2010, and 2012. Pretty sure Raving was a no-go in 2012 !

Hello All. As the inventor of the Racing Card Derby table game, we take all of the suggestions about the game very seriously. In this case we believe that you are totally correct, in that the dealers enthusiasm is very important to the RCD games success. With this thought in mind, the Racing Card Derby table game was recently updated to include fully automatic race calls, hoof noises, cheering crowds and running commentary. The affect of this addition to the table game has seen a lot more lively atmosphere and an attention grabbing combination of lights and noises. Thank you for your suggestions and please keep them coming. Racing Card Derby was recently launched at the Pechanga casino in Temecula CA and has the audio features mentioned. Enjoy and thank you for your interest. www.racingcardderby.com

Just looked at this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mY6C1u4n6jw
It was not up to par for this great game. I mean , there is a giant venetian blind in the center of the screen. Are you telling me that was the only room you could shoot in. REALLY ? And a stationery camera instead of being able to focus on the graphics as the game was being dealt ! Don't know if spokesman is the inventor, CFO, or whatever.
But why not a young man in jockey silks and cap ? I am sure you have a lot invested in this game, the video is not the place to cut corners. Have you talked to SHFL Entertainment or anyone about a shuffling SD machine to save time. So that as soon as bets are paid, the next race can start. In casinos, time is money.

The website is also terrible. It mentions the brand name over and over without giving any real information. This is what scam sites look like (I'm not claiming that it is a scam, but you should get a real website with actual information). There is no need to mention your band name in capital letters in every sentence, either.

The video isn't terrible, but certainly not excellent in any manner.

Why is the house edge so much higher for players' choice 21 when they S17 than H17?
