Invention Summary
A variation of blackjack in which the player is presented with three
cards face up (their card and two additional cards). The player then
chooses which card to add to their hand and which card to give to the
dealer. The game is then played much like traditional blackjack.
Market Opportunity
The casino and gambling market has been steadily increasing with the
expansion of online gambling as well as the increasing legality of
gambling in and out of the United States. According to IBISWorld,
industry revenue for casinos and online gambling is expected to
increase by 3.5% to $318.7 billion over the five years to 2024.
Furthermore, as gaming expenditure increases by an annualized rate of
3.1%, the market will also expand by an annualized rate of 2.6% as
more gaming enterprises are established.
These factors point to the steady growth of the casino and gambling
industry and as a result, the spread and appeal of table games like
blackjack. According to IBISWorld, gaming tables are the major
product offered by the industry with 35% dedicated to this segment
alone. This segment is estimated to make up 15.8% of industry revenue
in 2019 and includes games such as blackjack, roulette and poker.
Blackjack is estimated to represent 8.6% of industry revenue alone as it
typically has the lowest amount of house edge, or advantage biased to
the casino. As casinos and gaming become more accessible in the
United States and internationally, the opportunity for blackjack variants
to enter the market is favorable as overall reach and market accessibility
also increase.
