Flush
A bit of a twist on the question in a different thread where a player was seen to be observing and/or manipulating the deck while shuffling:
Is it cheating to watch the deck being shuffled and cut?
Often sloppy shufflers expose a lot of bottom cards on each riffle, and an observant player might gain some information.
If you don't have any way of manipulating the deck through this, is this type of observation cheating, poor sportsmanship or valid part of the game? (I would lean to poor sportsmanship, just wondering how others see it)
Edit - changed to "shuffling" not "dealing"
