Deck Mate was a shuffling machine designed by SHFL entertainment in 2002 used by casino poker rooms to assist dealers in shuffling.[1][2] The original machine can shuffle a deck in approximately 45 seconds. SHFL entertainment had a virtual monopoly over shuffling machines and generally rented them out to casinos for about $US500 a month.[3][4]

In 2013, SHFL entertainment was acquired by Bally Technologies.[5] In August 2014, Bally agreed to be acquired by Scientific Games, now Light & Wonder.
