Hello,
I hope you can give me some good advise/hint on where to go and who to contact in order to establish and promote a new casino-game.
Background-information:
My relative, who has in over 40 years travelled to almost every country there is and has played in more then 600 casinos around the world has invented a new game specially suited to the mythology and gamblingbehaviour of asian players.
He is right now (today) in London to meet with someone at the international gambling fair, working in the game developing area for SHFL (shufflemaster).
After he has spent a lot of time and money getting a temporary patent on his game (which is not as easy as one might think) I want to now help him promote his game and maybe get it established in a few or all casinos. I am convinced the game is good and would be an enrichment to the gamblingindustry.
In case his meeting in London does not bring any results .. what is there we could do?
Who could we present the game to that actually has a possibility to get it set up in a Casino to see if People like it or not?
I guess it would be necessary that when first setup we are there to explain the game to the players (even though the rules are very simple and can be read-off the tableau).. what else is there to keep in mind?
Every information I would be thankful for.
(if you wonder why I ask you even though he has so much experience: he only speaks german and therefore only has access to german sources of information and: he does not know I ask you for advise/help, was a spontaneous idea I just had after discovering the game inventors corner. Maybe he knows these things you are hopefully going to tell me already, who knows)
Thank you!

Stop trying to conquer the world. Find ONE casino willing to give it a try. The results of the Field Trial, assuming things go well, will go a long way towards getting other casinos and/or game distributors interested.
Prior to getting a casino to do the Field Trial get a math guru, one specialized in casino math, to analyze the game and to write a report showing things like the house edge and projected hold. The casino doing the Field Trial will want to see that before they agree to anything.
Good luck!

Superstitions are silly, childish, irrational rituals, born out of fear of the unknown. But how much does it cost to knock on wood? 😁

He certainly seems to be doing something productive today.

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
