Big Money now behind the Fire Bet

Shuffle Master has bought the "Fire Bet" from HopBet and no doubt the Fire Bet will now be promoted to more casinos since Shuffle Master has the clout and the marketing power to push it to more casinos. About 330 casinos now have the Fire Bet on their craps tables.

It wouldn't surprise me to see the Fire Bet included even on card craps tables here in California at Indian casinos -- and why not?

Shuffle Master has a video on its corporate website explaining the Fire Bet and promoting it to casino managers.

But as you watch the video take note of the "throw" of the dice, which isn't really a legal throw at all. In fact, in some casinos the floor person or box man would call a "no roll" because it is not a legal roll. In fact, it appears to be dice sliding as the dice do not fly in the air, bounce off the table nor hit the back wall. I find it very ironic that this "slide" would be used in a corporate video.

Here is the link to the video on the Shuffle Master site:

We've been looking closely at the "craps table" and it doesn't appear to even have the "Fire Bet" layout on it? Do you see it?

Hey Shuffle Master -- we can shoot your new video for you!!!
