Now if they only do this sometimes, then they may be doing it when they know there is a certain card about to be delt. As for pre-set boards, Pokerjack's comment explains why this can be used to one's advantage. The best way to speed play is to use two decks and have the dealer of the next hand shuffle them during the current hand and have them ready to go. This is done in casinos using an auto-shuffler for this very reason. Should you do this, make sure they are decks of two different colors to help avoid the cards getting mixed together. [/QUOTE]
