Not needed, the recent cosa nostra poker scam used a fair shuffler in terms of arranging the cards, but gave a controller behind the scenes the hands.

He then relayed specific instructions to the NBA coaches and athletes in the games coaching them on how to bet.

In a game like bridge, just tracking aces and faces as they go out would be a HUGE advantage.
