I am totally perplexed by so many bac players thoughts about something to this day.
How so many believe that an auto shuffler can set up the outcomes of hands and patterns to happen or not.
An auto shuffler cannot. I say that because I have taken lengthy hours with 8 decks of cards myself manually, set them up and cut them randomly in different spots, burned the appropriate number of cards and dealt the shoe out. My results were, virtually anywhere I cut the cards, caused the set-up deck to become different than what I set it up with. I did this between 500-1,000 times easily. And I know 100% that cutting a set-up deck and removing a varying amount of burn cards, will change any outcome that was pre-set.
Cutting the deck, moving an unknown amount of rear cards to the front and then removing 2-11 additional cards from the front, alters anything that was pre-set. The pre-set outcomes are strictly dependent upon their front cards not being altered out of the order they were put into to make them happen, period.
BUT HEY, MAYBE I AM MISSING SOMETHING?
