    On a serious note..... I have googled the answer for you. It states..... ''All on line gaming establishments who participate in card based games will have to under strict licence use a random number generator (RNG). This will be used in conjunction with the gaming act of April 1st, 1951. The April Enforcement Random Act of 51 (AREA51) states that all packs of cards shall have the jokers removed before commencement of the deal. The shuffle will be done by the RNG blindfolded and a pack protector placed at the bottom of the pack in case the blindfold falls of. The cards are then dealt in a clockwise direction or anticlockwise direction if the clocks have just gone back. The remaining cards will then be sorted to enable a action flop. If one or more people are left in the hand, the RNG will be turned off immediately and cards sorted manually to enable a WOW factor on the turn or the river. This will sometimes create a slight delay whilst this process is being calculated. If this creates mayhem at the table, it will be logged to be used in future. '' I hope this answers your sensible question Rob. I would say GL at the tables......but no point really.

    I'm pretty sure that you mean the "April Random Enforcement Act of 51".

    I hope that this helps.

    The man didn't ask a "simple question", he implied that this web site was "a bit bent".
    If he had asked a serious question in a constructive manner, I'm sure that the responses would have been phrased appropriately.

    Sorry mate, but I think you're just having a go for the sake of it! Anybody who asks (and I quote) "Are the cards just randomly selected or do they get dealt and theres just somone putting the cards in a computer ?" is gonna get some (attempted?) witty replies! Mind you, whatever thread you care to look at is likely to contain at least one attempt at humour! And because its the "regs" as you call them that post on the forum then its gonna be them who reply to these posts, hopefully in a light-hearted manner, which then makes the forum fun!Sorry if you don't see the funny side but having a go at those who do doesn't serve any purpose, apart from causing arguements! BTW nice alias! lol

    As far as I am aware, EVERYONE has an equal right to post on this forum so long as they abide by the site and forum rules. "Regulars" are certainly subject to the same restrictions as anyone else.
    I fail to see what your point is.

    The OP implied that the site was "a bit bent" which seems to have a corollary of implying that regulars on this site are either, themselves, "a bit bent" or are mugs for playing here.

    I would consider the responses pretty mild (and certainly humorous) considering the OP.
