Re: Shuffling at sites
Maybe I'm misunderstanding what continuous shuffle means. The way I understood it continuous shuffle means that the next card to be dealt is being repetitively re-generated thus adding entropy based on duration of hand and increasing randomness. As such a PRNG would act very much like a TRNG.
If a site is going to use TRNG to generate every card I don't see the benefit over them just choosing from the ~8E67 possible orderings from the outset and having a predetermined ordering before anything is dealt. The issue with Planet Poker and PRNG doesn't really apply to continuous shuffling. The issue was that they were limiting the orderings to a fraction of the possible orderings. |

That post from the Stars employ led me to check Party's site and they do mention how they "seed" thus they are using a PRNG.

Re: Shuffling at sites
I'm pretty sure Full Tilt uses continuous shuffle, although in my opinion there is little practical difference between the two.
