    摘要: A recognition system of a chip in a game parlor having a game table includes a game recording device which records a state of the chips stacked on the game table as an image using a camera and a chip determination device which analyzes an image of the state of the recorded chips to determine the number and the type of the chips bet by a player. The chip determination device has a function of storing a characteristic of an image of a predetermined state of the chip, and of outputting and displaying, as a determination result, a fact of an unclear determination when the image obtained from the game recording device at the time of determining is the image of the predetermined state.

    摘要: A shuffling system of the present invention includes multiple shuffling devices which are connected in series to one another, and multiple CPUs which are independent from one another, and are connected with the respective multiple shuffling devices, in which each of the multiple CPUs is used to shuffle the cards across the multiple shuffling devices, so that the cards are arranged randomly, and further, even if the information about the shuffle in each shuffling device is stolen due to an unauthorized access to the multiple CPUs, or the like, it becomes difficult to identify shuffled cards to which the stolen information is allocated in all the shuffling devices, and therefore the possibility that the arrangement of the shuffled cards is recognized is reduced.

    摘要: A table game system is provided capable of identifying shuffled playing cards used at the time of the occurrence of a problem in a card shoe apparatus, thereby enabling an investigation of the cause thereof or the taking of countermeasures therefor. A card shoe apparatus of the table game system of the present invention includes a barcode reader that reads a barcode provided in a shuffled playing card set, thereby reading a shuffled card ID that uniquely identifies the shuffled playing card set. A sensor for detecting the opening/closing of the lid is provided under the lid to detect the opening/closing of the lid, thereby detecting replacement of the shuffled playing card set. A control unit further includes a function of storing security items in connection with a shuffled card ID.
