I just found it amazing that they didn't have someone with just a little real experience "proofread" the thing before publishing it. Or at least they could have described exactly how it works at the WSOP and what is shown on TV.

I've played quite a bit of poker in various casinos and I've never seen them do a burn card right after the shuffle. I'm not saying you're "wrong" - just saying what I've experienced. I knew the question regarding the blinds would also come up and that's why I said the prize was awarded to the person who "had the same observation" as myself because I knew there would be some other opinions.

Thanks for participating!
