LAS VEGAS, Aug. 17, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Galaxy Gaming, Inc. (f.k.a. Secured
Diversified Investment, Ltd.) (OTCBB:SECD), announced today that on Friday,
August 14th, the Washington State Gambling Commission unanimously approved its
petition to amend rule WAC 230-15-040 (Requirements for authorized card games).
The amended rule allows approximately 78 non-tribal casinos operating in
Washington to fully implement all of the features of Galaxy Gaming's Emperor's
Challenge Pai Gow Poker casino table game. In March of this year, Emperor's
Challenge became the first table game available with Galaxy's Bonus Jackpot
System ("BJS"), whereby players may place an optional fourth wager in order to
obtain a substantial jackpot prize. However, the previous rule restricted
players to place no more than three of the four available wages.

Also at its meeting, the Gambling Commission released a report showing the
ranking of casino table games in the state. The report listed Emperor's
Challenge as the number one proprietary casino poker game, a position formerly
held by Shuffle Master's Fortune Pai Gow Poker, which dropped to second place.

"This rule change is huge for us," commented Robert Pietrosanto, Galaxy Gaming's
Sales Manager. "Although Emperor's Challenge became number one, a large number
of casino operators told us they were waiting for this rule change before
placing their order for the BJS version. Since Friday's ruling, orders are
pouring in. I anticipate at least another 50 units over and above our current
backlog," declared Mr. Pietrosanto.

The Commission also granted Galaxy's request the rule be effective in 31 days
instead of the typical implementation of January 1. "We are extremely grateful
to the Commission for approving our petition for this important rule change and
particularly for advancing the effective date," stated Robert Saucier, Galaxy
Gaming's Chief Executive Officer. "Having the rule effective mid-September
should positively impact our fourth quarter," he added.
