Shuffle Macnines Going into Top Section at Commerce

[Boris]

At Bay101 the deck is never cut.

Bout time.

I notice my hole cards coming out on the next hand's flop at least once a session at dealer shuffled tables, never at machine shufflers. (They alternate decks with the machine shuffler, but I've never noticed my hole cards appearing on the flop two hands later with the machines.)

What an odd and un-Andy-like thing to say.

I can't wait to see a player take a beat and throw his cards at the machine.

At Canterbury, I've never heard anyone complain about a scramble, or lack thereof on the autoshuffler tables. The highest limits (15/30 and 30/60) are always on non-autoshuffler tables. Of course, Minnesotans are notoriously nice and the floor tolerates exactly zero abuse of dealers or other players. Shame all cardrooms can't emulate this. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Yeah, but this is Commerce. I've already heard many people complain that the dealer doesn't scramble the cards wide enough before putting them into the auto-shuffler. They always find a workaround.

At Bay 101 we are getting 40-45 hands per hour (we timed it a couple months ago when they went to time collection). Also they only allow one set-up per shift. Bay 101 also doesn't allow cutting after they come out of the machine. Overall it has been a definate improvement to the game.
