On the other side of the table, there are certain procedures the staff, primarily the dealer, are required to follow. This covers everything from handling the equipment, dealing each hand, interacting with customers, and so on. There are also contingencies for every conceivable irregularity in the game. To suggest that any routine procedure is being followed to cheat you is extremely rude, which is a nuisance to other players as well as the house. The section on casino rituals can help to explain the actions you\'ll witness.
