I was there last night. I didn't notice that they werent using real cards

They're slick.

They keep a full stack of cards next to another smaller stack under the dome, to make it appear one shoe is being dealt and another is waiting to be dealt.

The machine never moves, and none of the cards is dealt

In the past, when they did that, the tote board would display "Virtual Mode".

Not any more.

I was there a few weeks ago, and half the machines were in virtual mode.

Yesterday, all of them were in virtual mode.

I will check in a few weeks to see if they went back to using the real cards.

Can you please clarify?

I did notice sometimes the shoe isn't moving on the game you are sitting at but the results are coming from another shoe being dealt out at a different machine. .I will check this out further when I return to Brooklyn

^ Thread going straight here. ^

Players in the area should confirm what's really going and when it's determined some players won't care at all, but some will - HA.

How can you not care about it?  C'mon, if it's virtual (and I'm quite sure that it is) it is then easily "manipulated" (or, at least, the results can be manipulated).  I don't trust it at all, and so I don't step a foot into that place.  Call me when you have a "live" game, not some computer-generated nonsense.

Yes, we already have chips in the cards and scanners in the shoe holder.  Wait until they can use some type of fast high tech 3D printing to create a card in a nano second.  Of course we have gaming commissions watching over everything.

There is no point in gambling if the underlying aspects of the game are arranged in certain ways.

I said it again and I'll say it before, they only cats who whine about supposed "casino orchestrations" are losers and/or system seller, hey hey.

Spot on Soxfan.

There are 416 cards in an eight-deck shoe.
If all of the Aces are dealt from the shoe, you will not see any more Aces for the remainder of the shoe.
With an infinite shoe, the cards are never exhausted.
There is an infinite number of every card remaining at any point in the game.
With an eight-deck shoe, the House Edge changes as each card is dealt.
With an infinite shoe, the House Edge remains constant and is probably higher than the H.E. for an eight-deck shoe.
They could instantly increase the ratio of 2s, 3s, 4s and 5s to increase the H.E for a Banker bet.
They could even change that ratio as you are betting.
If the computer sees that 70% of the people are betting Player on the next hand, the RNG could instantly stack the digital shoe with a disproportionate number of tens to favor Banker.
In a real card game, there could be a mathematical or physical reason for a BBBBB or PPPPP streak.
In an infinite deck game, these streaks would be purely random, assuming the game is random.
In PA, NJ and Nevada, it is.
Be advised, New York State law does not require table games to be random.  Only Video Lottery Terminal games are required to be random in NY.
They have a legal right to screw you.

To answer your second question:
Virtual cards are video cards as opposed to real cards.

Whenever I've been to Resorts World I always thought when the machine you're sitting at those decks of cards are not being dealt out the results were coming from another machine nearby. Because I remember the results will coming from the machine behind me and they were using real cards...... either way I do not trust them because those cards have chips in them n they get shuffled unseen and could be put back in any order perhaps they have a predetermined order that had given the house a good result in the past and there's no way if they repeated an order from 3 months ago you're going to remember it
