Default Re: \"Rabbit Cam\" online

[ QUOTE ]
Are you even reading what I am writing? Your point of multiple input data to form a randomizing output is obv taken for granted. That is ridiculous to think that the player's action solely determines the river card.

Please explain how a rabbit river card that is unactioned, can deliver the veritable river card. True, they can simply randomly pick a river card for all to view, but this card would not be representative of what it really would have been at that time.

It's like this, you are playing in a home game, where the card is constantly shuffling. You fold and the dealer randomly pulls out a river card and says "thats what it would have been." Truly that would not have been the case, and as such, the river card that is picked by the RNG has no real value except for entertaining possibilities. Then again, one can just play imaginary river themselves and just dream up what the river card would have been.

I agree with you and don't think this question has been answered properly.

Either:
1. The river card had been determined by the server before the turn betting was complete. This is a security risk.

or

2. The river card shown on the rabbit cam will not (except by lucky coincidence) be the one that would have been dealt had turn betting continued and a river card been necessary. In this case, a player using the rabbit cam is being lied to.

Anyone care to enlighten me?

who cares if people are being lied at about a card. People using a rabbit card are just plain stupid anyway.

(Assuming it's not one of the cards already dealt), does it really matter what the rabbit cam shows? The hand is over already, get over it, move on. (But if it gets the fish to call more often, then i LOVE it!)

Some sites shuffle the deck before the hand begins. Its not a security risk.

If you could find out the turn and river cards in this instance, you could also find players hole cards in the other instance. If the deck is not finalised perhaps insiders can change the river card? All these are ideas are negligible risks and immaterial to the (dis)continuos shuffle? discussion.

And yes, it doesn't matter one bit if the rabbit card shown would have been the actual card. Because their is no actual card. It didn't happen. It could never happen.
