you are assuming it is completly random but as far as I know there is no information to support the "completly random" statement. These shufflers are machines and it is nearly impossible for a mechanical device to achieve truely random outcomes. With that said I dont think these machines will be beat by a mathematical formula alone (i.e. a count system) but I do think someone will figure out a way to beat these systems but the legality of these methods will surely be questionable at best.
