Default Re: Anyone know this??? (random shuffle???)

I've seen people who've studied this (I have not) claim that the cards are constantly shuffled; this is what the RNG does. The way I understand it. the RNG "seeds" its algorithm with inputs gleaned from mouse movements and clicks and also white noise from the server room to create as random a deal as is possible. While statisticians will often tell you there is no such thing as "random", I think many will also say that these systems provide enough unpredictability as to be completely fair.

So to answer your question based on my understanding, the next card is not only effected by whether or not you click "fold", it's also affected by when you click "fold". But not in any predictable way.
