Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox company Gemaco is a manufacturer of playing cards, casino chips and table layouts for casinos. The company is based in Blue Springs, Missouri. In 2014, it was acquired by Gaming Partners International,[1] which has since been purchased by Angel Playing Cards of Kyoto, Japan.[2]

In 2012, poker player Phil Ivey won $9.6 million playing baccarat at the Borgata casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Borgata alleged that Ivey cheated using a scheme known as edge sorting. Claiming manufacturing defects, Borgata filed a lawsuit against Gemaco to cover the losses. In 2018, the ruling judge has cleared the company of accountability and put the emphasis on the players instead.[3][4] Many casinos use cards with a border to stop people from being able to do this.[5][6]

In 2012, Golden Nugget Atlantic City filed a lawsuit against Gemaco after a shipment of unshuffled decks led to 14 players winning a combined total of $1.5 million in Mini-Baccarat at the casino.[7]
