The Dealer Olympics saw the best of the best from the world of card shuffling, racking and abuse-taking from Men Nguyen, battle across the felt over a range of testing disciplines.

These were the disciplines:

Shot Pitch

Shoot 52 cards across the table into a boxed area on the other side.

Rack Attack

100 chips on the table, rack 'em as fast as you can. Oh yes, and do it blindfold!

Dealing Dash

Shuffle and cut the cards thoroughly before dealing out nine omaha hands. And do it quick!

Omaha Read

Read a complicated Omaha/8 hand as fast as possible then identify the winning hands and divide the pot accordingly.

There was a real battle on, as cards blazed across the felt and dealers showcased their incredible dexterity but eventually it was California's Ken Folliott who came out on top, picking up a comedy cheque for $4k.

Well done Ken!
