COMING SOON to a Vegas casino near you ... Shuffle Master has introduced Table Master Blackjack and Table Master Three Card Poker. The new versions of the traditional table games seat five players and feature a life-size dealer, who interacts with the players, pays winners and collects losing hands. The difference is the dealers are now virtual dealers - actors and actresses who were recorded and are played back on large TV screens while you play. Soon we’ll be able to play against our favorite celebs like Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie.
AND THE Wynn-er is ... A couple of columns ago we talked about the 20-foot-tall letters T-R-U-MP on The Donald’s new building ... the folks at the Wynn are quick to respond that their boss’s name is 69 feet tall (from the top of the W to the bottom of the Y). When you’re a billionaire, you can afford to have sign envy.

Now at Harrah’s you can watch your favorite game on the 40 plasma screens TVs while you shoot craps or play blackjack in the Sports Pit.
