Section 5319.41 - Card games

The requirements for games depicting cards being drawn from a deck are the following:

(a) At the start of each game or hand, the cards shall be drawn fairly from a randomly shuffled deck or decks. Replacement cards shall not be drawn until needed and shall be drawn in accordance with the rules of the game, to allow for multi-deck and depleting decks.

(b) Cards removed from the deck shall not be returned to the deck except as provided by the rules of the game depicted.

(c) As cards are removed from the deck, such cards shall be used immediately as directed by the rules of the game (i.e., the cards are not to be discarded due to adaptive behavior by the gaming device).

(d) It is acceptable to draw random numbers for replacement cards at the time of the first-hand random number draw, so long as the replacement cards are used sequentially as needed.
