Re: borgata shufflers not accurately counting cards
Bravo for counting the stub. So few dealers these days even know what counting the stub is. Bravo again for checking even tho there's a machine. Shufflers are today's poker dealer's excuse for absolutely never bothering to check for 52 cards ever, no matter what. I have had more than one dealer not even know what counting the stub was.
Shuffler machines do malfunction and do need maintenance. If you cheese on the maintenance you wind up with shufflers that need constant attention, jamming + whatnot. Since shufflers pay for themselves only by making the shuffle faster, they aren't paying for themselves if they aren't maintained + constantly jamming.
I've never heard of a situation like the OP, but I'm not surprised.
