The fairness debate

@Souljacker
From an old post by gatzby. At the time of the post gatzby was part of the replay team.

“Here’s how the dealer works: For each hand, we create a new deck deck of cards ordered lowest to highest. A card is then randomly selected from that deck and put it into another deck. This process is repeated until every card has been randomly selected from the first deck and moved to the second deck. After the second (entirely random) deck is complete, the dealing process begins from the top of the deck just as you would have in real life poker. As mentioned before, this process has absolutely no knowledge of anybody’s hands or previous decks.”
So it would appear that once the deck is created it is dealt off the top, one card at a time, like a physical deck and is table specific.
