Poker Auto Shuffler

S'up fellow Crow's. This is a short blog for those who are going to start playing live cash games or for those who already are. There's something you might need to pay attention to at the casinos when risking your hard earned money against the local pro's and wannbe pro players. It the dreaded auto card shuffler. Pay close attention to how the cards come out while your there betting your hands. Some casinos use a single deck with a "live" dealer, some use two decks with an Auto Shuffler. For the most part the casinos will start play with new decks, and there in sequential order. Ah,Ad,Ac,As..etc. The Dealer will slpread the cards around on the table face up to show that all the cards are there, then proceed to gather them back up and "hand mix ' them face down. With a "single deck" the dealer then will shuffle the cards before dealing them out. Most casinos use a "in the table" auto card shuffler vs then dealer manual hand shuffle. The "in the table" auto shuffler is something you need to pay close attention to. To me......it seems as if the cards dont get shuffled as well as they do by hand. And with "new" decks the cards are STILL in a very close sequence to one another. Even after several hands the cards are alway close to one aother. Follow me? ( KhQh hole cards.......flop Jd,Ks,10d). Dont let this aparent great hand fool you, because the others still in the hand have about the same hand as you do: (Qs,Ac hole cards). This senerio plays out with both decks in a 2 deck table with an auto shuffler. Both decks will have there tendencies so pay close attention to BOTH decks as how the cards are comming out. I hit big in a cash game in Nevada last year because of this. I was delt Js,Jc; flop was Ah,Qd,J,d. Nine players at the table, 7 called preflop. One player bets and 2 reraised before my bet, ( i was at the cut off, just before the button). I called the raises, turn card was a Kc, player raises EVERYBODY called. The river.....Jh, I made my quads. UTG player bets, get reraised, 2 players fold. Now I'm shaking....scared! I suck it up and use my head, look at the board, and remember the previous hands that came out. I reraise. One player folds, the rest call. They were shocked when I showed my hand, Quad J's. So the next time your a the casino, remember to pay attention to how the cards come out of the deck when using the auto shuffler, It may pay off big or save you money on a hand you should have folded. Good Luck Crows.
