Someone really needs to point out to Drew that when he fans the cards out on the new, larger Card Game table, he makes it so the contestant literally cannot reach some of the cards from their spot at the table. The table is so large and Drew does a very poor job using the right parts of the table to play the game. I can’t be the only one who notices this.
Well, yeah, but people generally don't do that. After all, "one card is as good as any other, so why bother to go allllll the way over there for something when the same exact thing is available right in front of me?"
That being said, I don't believe that they are stacking the deck in Card Game.
I'm just saying they could, theoretically.
Also, didn't Bob allow the contestant to cut the deck on stage as well?
The only reason I mentioned Card Game in the first place was because Drew really should fan the cards out so that the contestant is able to reach all of them.
With the new table, someone on the staff should notice this and let Drew know to use a different part of the table to spread the cards.
The new table is absolutely massive. Is that the largest table in TPIR history? What table is/was larger?
In this episode's playing, the contestant would have had to ask Drew to move or ask Drew to grab the card for him if he decided to go for the far end of the special deck.
Why? We've already established that there's nothing preventing the contestant from doing whatever they need to do to get the cards that are out of immediate reach.What is one reason why Drew should not fan the cards out where the contestant can reach them. I’m failing to come up with a single one but it sounds like you have a list prepared of reasons why this makes sense.
Why? There's nothing wrong with what he's doing.
I think it actually is the largest playing surface table they've got (not counted are the It's in the Bag and Check-Out counters).
And...? There's nothing preventing the contestant from doing either one if that's what they want. Drew's relative inexperience as a Blackjack dealer shouldn't be held against him since Card Game is about 1/70th of his job. We've already established that the contestant can have whatever card they want; at some point there's only so much the show can do, and it becomes the contestant's responsibility to ask for what they want.
