Item 8.01 Other Events

On November 3, 2006, Shuffle Master, Inc. (NASDAQ National Market: SHFL) (the “Company” or “we”), hereby provides the following update of its MP Games II (Washington) and Fleetwood litigation.

MP Games II (Washington) — In June 2005, MP Games LLC, Alliance Gaming and Bally Gaming (“Plaintiffs”) filed a complaint against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington, in Seattle, Washington (the “Washington District Court”).  On September 29, 2006, the Plaintiffs and the Company reached an agreement resolving their dispute and, pursuant to the stipulation of the parties, the Washington District Court ordered a dismissal with prejudice of Plaintiffs’ claims for breach of contract, trade secret misappropriation, and patent infringement.

Fleetwood — In January 2004, the Company filed a complaint for declaratory relief in the District Court in Clark County, Nevada (the “Nevada District Court”) seeking a judicial ruling that it did not commit any breach of a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding with Fleetwood Manufacturing, Inc. (“Fleetwood”), and that said Memorandum of Understanding did not create a legally binding contract on the parties.  Fleetwood filed a counterclaim alleging that we breached our obligations to negotiate in good faith with Fleetwood. On October 6, 2006, the Nevada District Court granted the Company’s Motion for Summary Judgment on Fleetwood’s counterclaim, thus ending Fleetwood’s claims against the Company. In addition, the Nevada District Court ruled that the Company’s declaratory relief was unnecessary.
