Re: Recommended dealing procedure, for new players, for home games
[ QUOTE ]
Too much for me. I mean, really? You're using a cut card in a home game? If I have that big a concern that mechanics and cheaters are penetrating my home game I'm just not gonna go anymore.

Larry's procedure is the best. Yes, a cut card in a home game for the same reason there's a cut card in a casino: to keep the bottom card from flashing.
The home game I play in uses the 3-person routine where the guy who just dealt cuts the cards and the next player just deals. It's very fast, efficient and works fine. No one there is a professional dealer, and we all seem to manage it.
If you encourage good habits, you won't have those embarrassing situations where someone does something stupid with the deck during play.
