Understanding the Shuffling Machine
Shuffling machines are used across the casino industry to create more efficient randomisation of cards for any game in comparison to shuffling manually. Since their invention, different variations of card shuffling machines have emerged, such as automatic shufflers and the continuous shuffling machine (CSM).
The continuous shuffling machine facilitates a type of automated shuffling used by most, if not all, casinos in an attempt to stop card counting in games. Continuous shuffling machines work by randomising the deck of cards, thereby allowing the game to be played at a quicker rate, (not having to wait for the dealer to shuffle and deal), whilst providing a fairer game through a more thorough, entirely objective shuffling system.
How Continuous Shuffling Machines Work

Typically, five decks of cards are placed into a CSM, with the machine throwing out and putting back in cards from each deck at random. The shuffling, as the name suggests, is going on continuously, with cards already used in the game having the chance to show up in subsequent hands. This makes attempts of card counting less likely to be successful than games with a traditionally shuffled deck of cards.
The original continuous shuffling machine uses an elevator-type system in which a shuffler will insert cards into the device’s shelves at random as the machine moves up and down. The Shuffle Master then randomly picks a deck for the game and places it into the dealing shoe. There are numerous different types of CSM, all providing a casino game with an effective, thoroughly random shuffle.
How Continuous Shuffling Machines Affect Player Strategies
Whilst playing a game of Blackjack that involves a CSM, there are a few things to consider in order to develop an effective gaming strategy, and to further yield the best possible outcome:
- Cards that have been used are placed back in the deck at random throughout the game. Therefore, counting cards throughout a game with a CSM will be less likely to work, if not impossible altogether
- Apart from card counting, games involving CSM will not change other basic Blackjack strategies, as these are almost always concerning elements of the game outside the shuffling of a deck
- Shuffle tracking could possibly be done if the CSM is integrating cards already used in the game back into the dealing shoe. Through this, players may be able to predict what cards are likely to be grouped together
- In a game of Blackjack with a CSM, the distribution of cards used is weighted in favour of the larger cards
- The fewer the decks of cards a CSM is set up for, the better the advantage for the player
Consideration of the above factors can help a player significantly whilst working out how to get the best possible outcome during a Blackjack game that uses a continuous shuffling machine.

Can Continuous Shuffling Machines be Beaten in Casinos?
It has been claimed that Blackjack is the only game players can learn to beat regularly. Those that learn basic strategy techniques are much more likely to win a game, and with experience under their belt, move on to card counting to further increase their chances of winning.
The implementation of continuous shuffling machines within most casinos has drastically restricted the lengths to which card counters can go to. There are still various things that can be done to put an advanced player’s skill set to good use!
There are many different types and models of continuous shuffle machines, one of which is made by leading manufacturer Shuffle Master and is the One 2 Six Machine.
The One 2 Six types of the shuffler, similar to most of the basic layouts of continuous shuffling machines, have cards inserted into it at random and throughout the duration of the game, and then presents a predetermined, thoroughly shuffled, number of cards into the dealing shoe for use in the game.
Although players cannot know the exact cards distributed, what can be determined is that the cards in the game will not be dealt for a few hands. Therefore, this provides players with a move accurate guess as to what will be in this new pack of cards by filtering through what is least likely to be in it.
However, each type of continuous shuffling machine will slightly vary in its techniques, being able to hold different amounts of decks within the shuffling process. The higher the amount of decks involved in the shuffling machine, the harder it is to estimate what is in the deck and therefore the lower the advantage for the player.
Shuffling When Playing at Online Casinos
When playing Blackjack at a live online casino, determining what shuffling technique is being used is a bit more difficult as simulations and algorithms are used for the most part.
Therefore, to help guess what type of shuffling technique is used and adapt player strategy accordingly, here’s what to bear in mind with online casinos:
- They often use a random simulation program in its shuffling technique to avoid bias
- Shuffling is typically done after every hand
- If you see the same card twice in a game, the casino is not using traditional methods, and rather is much more likely to be using CSM-styled shuffling
While continuous shuffling machines have made it harder for the more experienced Blackjack player to win, they level the playing field. Adapting your strategy towards beating the shuffler through a good knowledge of how your shuffling is done, and what this means for the hands dealt in a game.

I've wondered if the video blackjack at the Riviera accumulates decent points.
The Aruze BJ game does not accrue any points. I have not played the Shuffle Master games since before they installed the Aruze one (it stays on all 17's), but when I played it in the past, points earned at 25% the rate of other games.
One thing has me really nervous about the Shuffle Master machines. I was playing UTH and players can receive the same card at Binions and Vegas Club. I took a picture when this would happen but nobody seemed to care and gaming did not understand my point. I wondered if the blackjack games could be tweaked the same way.
I know they can in PA, but wondered if gaming allowed that here. After seeing that a single deck game dealt a fouled deck, I never quite trusted playing their machines anymore.
Regarding the same card issue, I was under the assumption that each player was dealt from a different deck (or 6 deck shoe).
Great info. Thanks for the response.

In UTH? It is a single deck game and the machines did not state there were multiple decks used. If there were multiple decks, it would be possible to get 5, 6 and 7 of a kind. I looked up the NV gaming regs and they require that a table game in video form exactly match the table game unless it is otherwise disclosed there is a difference. Maybe I misunderstood the regs. Gaming did not even understand what I was trying to explain and the people at Binions could not have cared less. Below is a screenshot I took. Seat 3 and 5 both have the same card. After seeing this at both Vegas Club and Binions I stopped playing the SM machines.
Also keep in mind one of the Riv Shuffle Master games is a single deck 6/5. Even if you don't get points, you can still get comps based on your play by contacting a host at Riv.
I have no doubt the casinos would love to replace all the games and dealers with machines eventually.
SM BJ and UTH at Vegas Club are decent plays for point earning and drawing ticket accumulation, plus decent bounceback offers. RogerKint knows this pretty well :). UTH uses a cloned deck. I agree, it's not in the spirit of the real table game. If there are three aces on the board, and I have the fourth ace, I don't want to see the dealer turn over something like A-K when I think I have the nuts.

I studied this by watching it one day. While other players have reported that the dealer has had the same card as them, I don't think it is possible. Therefor, if all four different aces were dealt to players and/or appeared on the board, there will be no ace in the dealer's hand or on the board
. This is what is so puzzling about using a fouled deck. The duplicate cards cannot come up on the board or in the dealer's hand, it actually increases the odds of the player improving their hand as opposed to them having the same value card in different suits. I was at Vegas Club one night and two of us made a straight flush with a bare 10 we shared so it works both ways. I see no value in dealing a suspicious deck and hurting the Shuffle Master brand for the very trivial advantage it allows. I have read colluding at a full table does not even cut the house advantage in half because there are so few plays that would change anyway, even if both of your set cards are burnt, you still play most pairs before flop. Dealing this type of way does not really stop colluding, it just may make it so one less card is out every few hands.
I am quite an educated gambler and I see some serious trust issues with this set up as it pertains to the other video games. I would be quite surprised if anyone who had a clue at gaming would approve of how this game is set up. Unfortunately, I was never able to find someone that even understood the game, much less my complaint.

That's bizarre the way you describe it. I can't imagine why they would program the game that way, except, as you said, to prevent collusion which has no effect anyway. I think Stephen How says it reduces the house edge from 2.2% to 1.6% and that's with a full table and optimal decisions.Perhaps you could talk to the Shufflemaster people? I'm not sure how receptive they are to customer inquiries.
