The term burn in poker implies discarding the top card from the deck rather than dealing it to the table. For example, in live Hold’em games, it’s common for the dealer to burn cards before dealing on every street. This is done to protect against cheating, or in case the value of the top card had been accidentally revealed to any player at the table. With that being said, do all poker dealers practice this before dealing the cards to the players?
