Just starting this thread to remind me. Soon as I can, I want to look at Raving entries and see if I can pick 1, 2, and 3.

I just glanced and saw Luck Brothers are back with Riverboat Roulette. Met them at G2E. No reverse gear in them Luck boys.

Feel free to post your picks here. Be interesting to see how votes here compare with Raving.

Know my guesses will be better than Dan's. As he will not allow himself to vote. LOL

Just glanced at exhibitors and saw Mulligan Blackjack. No, not Mike's game. But did see it had a LUCKY STIFF sidebet.
Good luck. Lucky.

Hell, good luck to all. Especially at $3500 a pop.

Right away I like Cee-lo. It's old as the hills and brand
new at the same time. Has a great name, 'SeeLow', easy
to say and remember. It's strength is that it's not another
boring card game, and because it lets the player throw
the dice, it will be very popular. Players love to think they
have some kind of influence on the outcome, and throwing
the dice is as direct an influence as you can get.

We're inundated with card games and people are tired of
them, I know I am. Craps is still around because the player
throws the dice. Cee-lo has a real chance if it stays true
to the version they play on the streets and college
campuses.

Cee-lo is already a big hit, just hasn't gotten to the casinos
yet. So far, it gets my vote for number 1.

My next choice is Mulligan 21. What BJ player hasn't wanted
to trade the card that put him over 21 for another card.
Extremely easy for even the slowest Hooplehead to understand,
this has a good chance of winning also. If I was still playing
BJ I'd play it for sure. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFE6rqMCabU
Of all the card games I've seen at Raving that I can find info on,
this is the best. It pays even money on a BJ, but most Hoople's play
to have fun and they won't care.

This is right up there with Cee-lo, it's a toss up.

Forget the roulette derivatives, bottom of the list,
not a chance. Leave roulette alone already..

What is going to be interesting on Cee Lo is that there appear to be two companies bringing a variation to the Conference. I wonder what the differences will be in the two offerings.

Cee-lo has been popular with the HipHop crowd for 20
years and it should translate well into the casino environment.
Mulligan 21 has the best chance of winning, though. I
reviewed all the games I could find info on, and it's the
standout. Looks like 'One for the Money' has been wisely
pulled from the competition, it really didn't have a chance,
too much like games we've seen already.

Mulligan 21 has the advantage that, BJ is familiar to everybody,
and they will instantly understand this variation with almost no
explanation. And they will keep playing it, that's the key to any
game. The semi pro player will moan about even pay BJ's,
but the average ploppie doesn't care about 6/5, he won't care
about even money. I think the chance to get another card
after you bust will be addictive, the player will love the feeling
of getting a winning hand after the 'oh crap' feeling of busting.

I know some of the Raving judges are reading this, watch out
for this game. It's got 'money maker' written all over it.
