In its second year, after a successful debut in 2011, The Table Gaming Show will exhibit the very latest in table games to hit the industry.

Send me your email and I may be able to get you on even at this short notice.

Ohhh its too short notice for me :-(
This would of been very cool to go and see.
I assume its on next year?

Could well be another one later in the year - I'll post the dates well beforehand when the next one gets underway.

As a Grosvenor employee (and one who nearly talked my way into getting to go to the Showcase) I'm pretty sure its an annual event. I will post more details if/ when I hear about them.

How did it go guys? Any interesting games? Much interest shown by the casino executives?

Went very well, better than I thought. I've just got back and I actually tweaked my game during the night - it was very useful seeing it being played in casino-style settings.

The results of the feedback should be available next week so that will decide on the initial possible placements of a few of the games that were well received by players.

Advance notice - the next one has been penciled in for September 13th.

Hopefully you will post about the difference between that showcase and Shufflemasters. An unbiased judge's view, so to speak !

Buzz, the format is different for both events.

I haven't been to a SHFL Focus Group yet but the Grosvenor Showcase consists of around 20 various games and you are given a table and dealer for a 4-hour period.

Grosvenor's invited guests (around 100 of them) can choose which games to play and for how long they wish to play the game. Anyone who plays the game is asked to fill out a feedback card which includes ratings for various aspects of the game along with an overall comment, or suggestion, if applicable.

You tend to get a sense on how well your game is performing just by listening to the players as they play your game. Also, if players stay a while on the game then that is obviously a good sign too.

I had enough time last night to hear feedback, watch player participation and tweak my game, within the 4-hour period.

I am very please with the Show and the feedback on my 7 games.

...another one later in the year...?

Just wondering as I popped in last week and they thought it was only an annual thing (but they were busy with a big poker comp!). btw if you do know the date (next year May?) could you kindly either let me know or update this thread as I've played your games and it'll be good to meet you in person. (fwiw they still had the freebet table and seemingly allowed splits of 4s but not 10s, and a few trial tables not in use out the back e.g. Qilin, dice).

Next one is scheduled for October 17th ... it's a little too soon after G2E and I'm likely to still be in Vegas.

Coventry have kept Free Bet as one of their regular games - they are correct in allowing 4's to be free-split but not 10-value cards.

PM me when you are next planning to go as I'm aiming to head there sometime next month before I go to Vegas.

Did anyone attend?

Yes, it was a successful night with a good attendance. The companies included myself, Mr.CasinoGames. Shuffle Master and Galaxy Gaming. MathExtemist's "Twist'Em" game was also showcased along with a couple of other independent inventors.

The results of the event should be sent out next week - I'm expecting a good report for 'Free Bet' along with the '22' side-bet as it received a good reception at the show.
