Question:    I have heard all this talk about re-shuffling, playing Vegas rules, etc. I've played in casinos all over the Western Hemisphere and I see NO ONE online playing anything NEAR real casino rules.

Answer:    Sounds like you're referring to blackjack. The only difference between online blackjack and blackjack on the Las Vegas Strip is that online casinos shuffle after each round. If they didn't, card counters would use computer programs to clean them out. Otherwise, the rules are the same, as you'll find on the Las Vegas Strip. More on shuffling: Many land-based casinos in Vegas and all around the world use Continuous Shuffle Machines to speed up blackjack play. The dealer sticks the used cards in the machine at the end of each round and the machine shuffles them. For the player, it's like playing an infinite deck – and this is similar to playing at an online casino. Just like in Las Vegas, rules vary from casino to casino, so check the details before laying down any cash.
