Default Re: does the deck \"change\"? poker\'s version of schrodinger\'s cat

I'm no expert, but some thoughts

You can still see the cards so this scenario isn't really shielded from the outside environment. Which is what is required to prevent decoherence resulting in the collapse of the wave function. Is seeing the deck and not the faces enought to prevent this?
