FWIW I've heard that the mean of all players' mouse movements is another factor used to generate the seed for the RNG. So next time you need you're all-in and need to hit an Ace, shake ur mouse vigorously to increase the probability of a high card coming down.

Actually I do think that this is how the cards are figured out. I'm talking about the completely random. So it really doesn't know what cards are coming til they come. Otherwise there would be someone who can hack into the system and see what the board would look like. I think that I think that was to make me feel better when I do fold the nuts preflop.

Some sites use a continuous shuffle (ie the cards are constantly being shuffled) and use "random" things like mouse movement, keyboard movement, as entropy for the RNG, so yes, you can affect the cards that come by shaking your mouse.

Other sites don't use the continuous shuffle. You have to shake your mouse correctly before the hole cards are dealt to get pocket aces.
