Default Re: shuffled hole cards

Sorry for noob question, but what is it mean? And how would this info affect my play?

I make it a habit of checking the instant hand history each time I go to showdown and my opponent mucks his hand or catches what I think was a miracle card. I want to make sure he had what I think he had, what he started with to try to chase down my 3rd street raising hand, whether he hit his flush in 5 or on 7th, etc. If the hands were shuffled you would have to guess which order the cards were dealt to determine what he had on 3rd street or what he caught on 7th.

At Stars, even when the opponents hand is mucked after showdown, you can check the instant hand history to see what he had in the order they were dealt. Makes quick note taking a lot easier for the next time he tries it.
