The only problem with this method is that it creates the opportunity to cheat through the use of marked cards. [/ QUOTE ] Ah yes of course, good point :-) But it would be way too slow too. |

Re: Burning cards
[ QUOTE ]
This is a sometimes pet peeve, and sometimes source of amusement. It's a peeve when it slows down the game. The issue is burning cards, and the reason for doing so. The reason is so that in case the next card is marked in some way, no players in the hand will be able to tell what the next card dealt will be. No one seems to know this basic idea though, and the ensuing hijinx are sometimes ridiculous. To wit: - A card was dealt face up by mistake. In that case, usually everyone agrees that that will be the "burn card". [/ QUOTE ] this is an actual rule |
