This is awesome but wtf, I thought like those cards never got even close to being in the air, aren't they slid out of that shoe thing?

How could a casino be so stupid, and how has nobody done this yet?

I've never seen cards dealt like that and if a casino is doing that, they are leaving themselves wide open to this sort of scam.

I've read that in most major casinos they monitor or block transmission frequencies that might be used by cheats.
