Abstract
The present invention is concerned with providing a game that mechanically dispenses additional cards to a player in a dramatic manner. Card play initially determines whether a player may have to operate the dispenser. However, a chance element in operation of the device may still permit the player to escape receiving any additional cards. Depression of a button in accordance with card play, indexes a disc having variously spaced apart detents for actuating a battery motor driven eccentric wheel that expels the cards from a reservoir.
