Re: Big Deal - Holden Joins the Internet Game
"There are some very good players in cyberspace, who have adjusted their games to computer dealing - slightly different from human, random dealing..."
The article was mainly ok, but what's this bit? afaic, it's been shown that the computerised shuffles are random - and if anything, the human dealing is less random due to insufficient shuffling. He got that backwards as a pander to the conspiracy theorists. I don't like an article being published in a major newspaper that's falsely promoting this notion...can't be scaring newbies off unduly, you know.
It's the 2nd WCOOP as well, but that's a minor quibble.
