How Cards Are Shuffled for Poker Games on CoinPoker
CoinPoker uses an algorithm called the “Fisher-Yates shuffle,” the same method used by professional casinos and certified by mathematicians around the globe.
Every hand of poker is freshly shuffled, and always completely independent of previous shuffles.
Here’s how CoinPoker shuffling works:
1. Use a 52-Card Deck
We start with a fresh deck of 52 cards, in their factory order (A♥, 2♥, 3♥, 4♥, and so on).
2. Pick the Last Card
We pick out the last card in the deck, starting with the K♣.
3. Randomly Position
We randomly select a position in the deck from position 1 to position 52.
4. Swap The Cards
The last card in the deck is swapped with the card in a random position.
5. Repeat the Process
Swapping continues for the second-to-last card, third-to-last, and so on.
6. Continue Until Done
This process continues until every card has been randomly repositioned.
