The air holes 23 can discharge the gas generated by the physical cards during the falling process, thereby increasing the falling speed of the physical cards.

[0028] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: when in use, the player chooses a multiplayer or single-player mode to compete. When there are no players, the device system automatically matches players through the network. When the player matching is completed, the remote server starts electronic shuffling. After the electronic shuffling is completed, the player presses the confirmation button 11, and the system distributes virtual cards to the player. At the same time, the card dealer 26 of the device is started, and the FR reader 25 reads the ID on the real card. When the ID on the real card is the same as the virtual card distributed by the system, the card dealing roller 24 on the second card storage box 17 rotates forward and transmits the real card to the card drawing box 12 through the card outlet 27. When the ID on the real card is different from the virtual card distributed by the system, the card dealing roller 24 on the second card storage box 17 reverses and transmits the real card to the first card storage box 16 for standby use. Then the player takes the real card. When the player plays the card, he puts the real card on the RFID card reader 10. The RFID card reader 10 automatically senses the real card and a "play" prompt box appears. The player touches the card reader 10 to automatically sense the real card and a "play" prompt box appears. Touch the prompt box to confirm whether to play the card. At the same time, the RFID card reader 10 transmits the data to the remote server through the network interface 2. The remote server determines whether the card playing complies with the rules. If it does not comply with the rules, the display 9 displays an error message. At the same time, the remote server records the physical card and displays the content of the physical card to other players through the display 9. Other players play cards in the same way. At the same time, the player puts the used physical card into the discard port 28. The physical card falls onto the conveyor belt 15 through the discard port 28. The conveyor belt 15 conveys the physical card to the first card storage box 16 for standby use. When the physical card in the second card storage box 17 is used up, the motor 19 is started to swap the positions of the first card storage box 16 and the second card storage box 17 for the convenience of players to continue using. When the device needs to be moved, the threaded rod 6 is rotated to lift the top plate 5 so that the universal wheel 4 contacts the ground, thereby moving the device. After the movement is completed, the threaded rod 6 is reversed again to make the top plate 5 contact the ground to prevent the device from moving.
