  • Playing blackjack on a continuous shuffling 5-deck system, are the odds of winning different than playing the dealer with 1 deck or 2 decks? Tom from Aurora, CO For the beneit of other readers, my blackjack appendix 10 explains, the house edge in a five-deck game is 0.028% less if a continuous shuffler is used, as opposed to a hand shuffle.

How Shuffle Tracking Works in Black Jack

Shuffle tracking is a nontraditional blackjack strategy technique that you might not often hear about it. Shuffle tracking is a derivative of card counting but you usually won't find much information on the subject. This is a more advanced technique which can be extremely difficult to master but will often yield very high results and large profits if executed correctly.

How Shuffle Tracking Works

To properly explain how blackjack shuffle tracking works, we will use a fictitious example. Let's pretend you are a fairly experienced blackjack player and card counter, and that you're playing in a six-deck blackjack game. You've had a great count throughout the shoe but the paint cards never made the table. When the shoe finished, you have a high count of +13.

Since the paint cards never hit the table, the one deck left behind the cut card obviously contains the majority of the larger cards you've been waiting on. If it was possible to track that one particular deck full of the paint cards through the shuffling process, you would obviously have a very large advantage during the next shoe, by knowing the position of the cards that help you most.

There are several variations of shuffle tracking strategies but the main underlying principle is to find the very simple shuffles, so the large amount of paint cards will still end up together and don't get too overly diluted throughout the shoe. This can be a very difficult strategy to properly learn and use but it can have very high results when executed completely correctly. Making just a few small mistakes using this strategy can quickly rid you of the edge it provides you.

How to Practice Shuffle Tracking

Before even considering using shuffle tracking you must make sure you have completely mastered basic strategy and some method of card counting. Remember to practice, practice, and practice, before ever trying to use blackjack shuffle tracking in a real casino game. With the limited amount of strategy information written on shuffle tracking in blackjack, it's often difficult to find ways to practice this strategy.

However, there are a few resources available to you. If you are interested in seriously learning this technique, you should look into getting the computer software package called Casino Verite Blackjack. This software package allows you to practice shuffle tracking on your computer to make certain you aren't making too many mistakes before actually trying the technique in a real blackjack game where you have the chance of losing large amounts of money.

I have a few questions I hope someone can answer about video poker machines. I know the random number generator determines what cards come out, but:
1. Does the RNG affect both the deal and the draw?
2. How fast does the RNG run? Does a half second pause affect what cards come out?
3. Is the RNG running constantly? If I sat at that machine 5 minutes earlier, would the first cards be the same as they are now?
Thanks.

#1. Yes.
#2. Most modern RNG's can produce millions of random numbers per second. I just tested -- 100M random numbers took 18 seconds.
#3. Most RNGs are seeded once when the program boots, based on some environmental condition. After that, the RNG produces the next value based on its current state, which doesn't change until the next number is delivered.

As teliot said, it generates millions of numbers per second.

3. Is the RNG running constantly?


Yes - otherwise it is far too easy for somebody to find a way to beat it. If 10 million numbers are generated each second, then even if your hand was moving at three times the speed of sound, it would move only about 1 mm in the time it would take to generate the next number.Javascript blackjack shuffle game
Also note that the numbers are not generated in any particular single 'loop' - that is, if a number from 1 to 1,000,000,000 is being generated, then the number 123,456,789 will not necessarily appear once in any 1,000,000,000 consecutive random numbers. This may have been how it was done decades ago - in fact, when i was in college in 1982, I created an electronic dice roller that rolled two six-sided dice by generating the pairs 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, 1-4, 1-5, 1-6, 2-1, 2-2. ..., 6-5, 6-6 in order over and over again at a rate of 1 million pairs per second - but somebody figured out that if you can figure out how frequently the 'jackpot number' comes up, you can reduce the probability of hitting it to around 1 in 10,000, which, for a $1 slot machine with a $500,000 jackpot, is a serious advantage play.

Does a half second pause affect what cards come out?


Yes, but you (probably) have no way of selecting a particular draw.
Think of it like this: the dealer is shuffling, and then shuffles again, and then shuffles again, until you say stop. The dealer is shuffling 1000 times a second.
May the cards fall in your favor.

is there proof of this?
if the game was played on a table
and we walked up to the empty table to play, the dealer would not be shuffling the deck over and over.
in a shuffle machine it would be a waste of electricity
i think it is the same in a vp machine
online vp games where the code can be seen, like in javascript, the deck is not being shuffled many times per second
so i refuse to believe it is done that way in a vp machine

But, when the initial 5-card hand is called, and dealt, does the machine continue to shuffle the remainder. or is the deck 'frozen' as a real deck?
In fact I envision the deck being shuffled in between the cards dealt, and never stops shuffling until A.) the hand is over, after a draw, or B.) if all 5 cards are held.
What does NGL say about this?
RS
I agree with sally on this one. Would be sufficient to shuffle once when DEAL is pressed, load 10 cards into memory, use the first 5 on the deal, and use the second 5 on the draw when applicable.
But I also don't know how it works in machines. But I know constantly shuffling doesn't make sense, both between deals and between draws.

In order to be GLI certified, yes. GLI-11, section 3.3.4 says
Quote:

The RNG shall be cycled continuously in the background between games and during game play at a speed that cannot be timed by the player.


Not shuffling after the deal might make the game vulnerable to a next-card information attack.

Javascript Blackjack Shuffle Tutorial

Not continuously shuffling might make the game more vulnerable to some sort of next-card information attack.
So, I see three scenarios:
- Shuffle before the deal, and then the deck is played out.

Javascript Deck Of Cards Shuffle


- Shuffle before the deal, and then shuffle before the draw.
- Shuffle the remaining deck constantly.
One of these is more secure than the others.
In any case the original question was 'does a half second pause affect what cards come out?'
And I believe that's a yes, since a different RNG sequence would be selected, and the shuffle is based on the RNG.
... Just like I fully expect that hitting the spin button on a slot machine at a different moment selects a different
RNG stream and that gets you a different result. (But they all average together.)
Now, in a shuffle machine, there is a negligible chance of figuring out the order of the cards when they're closed away in that black box hanging off the table. That's not necessarily the case with passively reading computer memory.
It's not directly van Eck phreaking, but computer buses do make noise, and they could be intelligible (although security will wonder why you brought your suitcase down to keep you company while you play video poker).Javascript

This only applies to the UK, but I vaguely remember reading something about the random number generators having to continue to pick random numbers in the background. Otherwise it might be possible to see where in the, admittedly large, loop the machine was and work out the next draw. It doesn't take much work for a computer to continue to do this, say every 1/100th second.
It's also fairly easy to shuffle the deck as only needs 51 (or number of cards in shoe-1) random numbers. The computer only slows down when it runs out of numbers from the current state and needs to generate more - but again that doesn't take long and is part of the get-next-random-number routine.
When 'Deal' is pressed, play the hand out (as one would probably have to keep a copy of the deck for debugging purposes or verification, I wouldn't re-shuffle prior to draw part).
DoubleOrNothing

But I know constantly shuffling doesn't make sense, both between deals and between draws.


What real difference, all the shuffling, if what's going to happen happens anyway?
The only way that real life is randomized is if the fields are moving alongside the moving energies in the same way. If wormholes in space-time are always present. If we could not only see the universe from outside, but also reach in and rearrange it.
Only the One, the great mover, who is also the 'road' can be in such constant flux.
