I will agree that a proper shuffle of riffle-riffle-strip-riffle takes around 10 seconds, and that nothing more is needed.
Also agree that using two decks (shuffle behind) is faster, and since the active dealer is controlling the muck that he will need to shuffle afterwards, so no cards are in the way for the dealer of the next hand as he begins dealing. They are all sitting to his right, getting shuffled for the ~next~ deal.
New dealer cuts the already-shuffled deck, and starts dealing. Simple logic says it's faster, no matter how quick one can shuffle.
Well why not debate the two-deck system while debating cup holders?
Anybody have any thought about the right amount of fracs to use on a cash table?
This is the most meaningless defence of... well anything, when trying to decide "which is better". I drive a Mazda 6. I have given many friends a lift. None have ever complained. Does that make it the best automobile on the market?Never had a complain
I have both. Most of the beverages I provide are bottled water, soda cans, and beer bottles/cans. The all fit perfectly in the small/standard. If you want to add highball glasses/mixed drinks, or any glassware.. use the bigger ones. 20oz soda bottles don't fit in the small/standard ones either, but they have caps, and I don't mind them on the floor next to the seat.Not to hijack too far from the OP, but for the cupholder-in-rail crowd...
Do you prefer:
- Small / standard (fits most beer bottles)
- Jumbo 4"
- or Dual Radius
I'm planning my first build this summer, and trying to decide cupholder size. I will definitely have them in the rail.
If there’s a concern that the jumbo cup holders are too big for a beer bottle, they’re pretty much unfounded. Multiple times, I’ve had a tall beer bottle in a jumbo cup holder, and accidentally whacked it enough to knock it over. It doesn’t fall. I suppose if the bottle was completely full, a bit of beer could splash out of it, but I like to drink, I’m pretty clumsy, and it’s never been a problem.Not to hijack too far from the OP, but for the cupholder-in-rail crowd...

Who owns a hot dog long enough to put it down? Bite, bite, bite, bite, done. Now I’ll check my cards.Hotdog sandwich holders in the rail confirmed awesome (nobody complained), and are definitely faster.

It bugged me to no end that people fixed a dog, walked over to the table, sat down, and then ate it there. The obvious answer was to get the frank, eat it walking back to the table, clean hands, then sit down.
...and collect chips if built in.
...and dictate where you can place your drink if built in.
...and make it more difficult to "spread out" when short handed.

No complaints is the goal of the mediocre. If you want your game to just "not suck", then you have accomplished that with in racetrack cupholders. That said, I have had no complaints on my table that has coasters. Hell, I've played on a kitchen table and nobody complained (well I might have, but only in my head). By your "no complaints" standard, they are all equal.
They are not.
This forum has many lively debates, as different people prefer different styles for different reasons. But in no case should the peak of mediocrity be the goal of anyone searching for advice for the best option. My opinions differ from many, and some of those people have even played on my tables without complaints - but I would never take that as implicit acceptance that I have changed their opinions as to which is better.[/QUOTE

I generally make it a rule not to buy things for games that I won't eat myself if left unconsumed...
Roadkill-ass hotdogs definitely in that category.
