Re: [vpFREE] Re: Playing Short Coin - Dangerous OR Smart?

No, that is actually true now. Older machines did operate the way you describe, and even though some 'expert' books may describe it that way, you'll find they were written a number of years ago and not updated. I also misstated in my earlier post about the way the draw happens, sorry if I confused anyone. My point was holding one card over another will cause a difference in timing when you hit the deal button, and hence the cards drawn.

Is this true? I thought on most machines the cards were already lined up
behind the draw waiting to fall into place when you had selected your holds
and hit the button.
