I just thought of this and I dont know. I know burning a card is to make sure the top card isnt marked. Does Full tilt poker burn a card??

FT's deck is constantly shuffling until the next card is dealt...

I believe Stars uses a predetermined deck, but still does not burn a card.

Cmon, I was just playing with this guy in a SnG, he has to be joking. Didn't seem like a donk.

Of course they burn a card, it prevents cheating online

Hey tilters, I'm really sorry if 01baz is not joking, if he isn't he should try to convince FTP to hire this guy to burn cards for the table.

Dude. It is so funny that you posted that picture in this thread. I was going to post a picture of Cartman from the Special Olympics episode, but I couldn't get it to work.

I got into a nice arguement w/ a friend of mine who plays on here. I said there is no reason to burn and he says they do to "make online like real life games" so w/e. its not that big of a deal, just curiosity thats all.

was just watching the WSOP while reading this thread and i noticed that they burn cards even when 2 players go all in preflop (id noticed before just never really noticed). i wonder if that is necessary. after all they cant change their actions because of marked cards
