Spectator's Card
They take a card, turn it over & shuffle while the deck is away — you reveal which card and where it is
Triumph
The deck is shuffled — yet you call red or black on every card, and they fall perfectly separated
Scan the shuffled deck — the reader learns every card's colour so you can call them.
Blackjack
Every seat plays by the house dealer's rules — so the entire game is decided the instant the deck is shuffled. You call it before a card is dealt.
Scan the deck, set the table, then reveal every hand's outcome in advance.

Omaha
Four to six hole cards, but a hand must use exactly two of them with three from the board. Deterministic from the shuffle — the winner (and the low, in Hi-Lo) is fixed before the flop.
Scan the deck, set the table, then reveal every hand and the winner in advance.

Deck Health
Temporal read quality, tracked over time
A live, temporally-averaged read-quality score across the whole deck. Every card has its own tile below — read quality, the four edge wear strips, where the damage sits, and a 12-month trend.
Deck overview — 4 sides
Deck-level heat image: each strip is one physical edge across all 56 cards in order. Green = the reader sees that edge cleanly, red = the read keeps failing there.

Deck reading success
Codebook bit-check
Place a card squarely, in good IR light, then test its decoded bit pattern against the codebook. Filled = wide bar, hollow = narrow; red = mismatch.
Calibration
Profile your deck for the best possible recognition
Calibrate all four edges, side-on
Hold the deck edge-on (side view) so it fills the strip guide. A→K of Clubs, Hearts, Spades, Diamonds, Ace of Clubs on top. We capture both short edges then both long edges and grade every card against its known code.
